My teaching approach relies on practice and immersion in the language, through conversation and consumption of multiple medias (music, movies, books).
My main focus is making my students able to communicate and interact as soon as possible, so that they can enjoy their language-learning journey instead of just studying and waiting for a long time before they can actually use what they learned.
During our encounters we will talk, write and practice, intertwining the formal learning of grammar and vocabulary with the more entertaining usage of each skill you will acquire.
No matter the level you begin with, from first basic interactions to formal high-level discussions, we can work together to improve your skills and proficiency.
I am skilled and professional, but also flexible and easy-going.
My interests are mainly of the nerd-ish persuasion, such as fantasy and sci-fi novels, movies and series, boardgames, RPGs and suchlike.
I love learning new things and discovering old classics with my friends and my students, and this is mainly why I got my degree in philosophy and studied many different topics on my own.

I have been working with Mick now for some months and would have no heitation in recommending her to anyone wishing to learn Italian. Mick is without doubt the best teacher I have ever had and I have tried a few!

Un ottima lezione. Poco a poco. Mick is a wonderful teacher, for me. She certainly has the knowledge and the capacity to share it in a meaningful way. Like my folks used to say..."we can't do it for you." Mick allows me to explore and learn at my own pace. Wonderful 😊
