My name is Cydonie,
I'm a 'madrelingua' English teacher with a first class degree in Translation and French from the University of East Anglia in the UK.
Born in London and with 10 years of teaching experience, I worked for several years with translation undergraduates at Université Sophia Antipolis in Nice, France. I later worked in private business schools, teaching subjects like negotiation, sales, and public speaking.
I now live and teach in Montebelluna, Italy. My language learning philosophy is simple: lots of speaking in a friendly and relaxed environment, while dealing with grammar "blocks" as they arise, is the key to achieving the fastest results. I look forward to helping you unlock new languages and cultures!
What Services do I Offer?
Welcome to English su Misura, where I offer personalised English lessons designed to meet your unique needs, both online and in person if you live in the Montebelluna (TV) area.
Whether you urgently need a B2 level for that promotion, want to enhance your international sales, prepare for the Cambridge exam or IELTS, or simply want to enrich your holiday experiences, I'm here to help.
With a wealth of resources and fun ideas to keep lessons interesting, I am committed to pushing you towards your goals.
Let's get started!
These lessons are designed to enhance your professional communication skills. They can be individual or group lessons (max 6 students).
I have experience working with CEOs, lawyers and large companies and have created my own business English courses for private schools, helping people with presentations, negotiations, CV writing, interview English and business correspondence.
Whether you want to improve your conversational English, prepare for a holiday, or enhance your English comprehension to fully appreciate British music, literature and films.
I will find genuine native, culturally relevant materials and topics to keep pushing you towards unknown vocabulary and grammar structures so you progress fast!
Are your reading and writing abilities strong, but you simply can't form a sentence under pressure? Put away the grammar books (at least for a while) and converse your way to confident exchanges!
This course is especially good for students with a decent passive knowledge of English, who simply need to activate it!
I have experience preparing students for the Cambridge (FCE or CAE), IELTS and TOEIC assessments.
In the first lesson, I will assess your abilities in the four language competencies, and we will work strategically on the weakest points first, getting you the largest grade improvement for your efforts.
