Ersilio
I work as an English language expert and teacher for The Cambridge School, leading European educational projects (PNRR) in public schools. My goal is to deliver practical, structured, and stress-free learning focused on achieving concrete results.
🎯 Teaching Techniques & Methodology
Cambridge Exam Preparation with Official Coursebooks: For certification tracks (B1, B2, C1), I follow updated, official coursebooks from top publishers (e.g., Cambridge University Press), ensuring a rigorous preparation across all exam sections (Listening, Reading, Writing, and Speaking).
CLIL Methodology (Content and Language Integrated Learning): I integrate theoretical study with current affairs articles, business topics, and authentic materials to make English immediately applicable and engaging.
Task-Based Learning & Simulations: Practical exercises based on real-life scenarios, timed exam simulations, job interviews, and public speaking techniques.
⏱️ Structure of a Standard Lesson (60 minutes)
1. Warm-up (5–10 min): Free conversation or active review of vocabulary and structures from the previous lesson to get warmed up.
2. Focus of the Day (25–30 min): Explanation of grammar and language functions directly from the coursebook, or guided text/audio analysis.
3. Practical Application (15 min): Guided exam task or targeted speaking/writing practice based on the lesson's topic.
4. Feedback & Wrap-up (5 min): Review of recurring errors, pronunciation feedback, and instructions for homework or self-study for the next session.
💡 Teaching Highlights
Use of Top Coursebooks: Step-by-step guidance using dedicated exam textbooks and workbooks, supplemented by personalized summary sheets.
Continuous Progress Tracking: Regular tracking of your progress and periodic practice exams to evaluate your actual performance level.
Overcoming Speaking Anxiety: Targeted exercises designed to build confidence and overcome the "mental translation block" in both exam speaking tasks and everyday conversation.
🎓 Who My Lessons Are For
Middle & High School Students: Academic support, grade improvement, and Cambridge exam preparation (A2, B1, B2, C1).
University Students: Preparation for language proficiency exams, B2/C1 certifications for Erasmus programs, or assistance with academic papers and theses.
Professionals & Adult Learners: Business English, preparation for international job interviews, English for travel, or conversation practice to build fluency.
