If you’re searching for a reputable teacher with a passion for creating effective lessons and a history of helping English learners reach their goals, you’re in the right place. Contact me to discuss your needs now.

For the past five years, I’ve been helping English learners experience progress in just a few months that they had been trying to reach for many years.

I am the founder of in English with Love and I created this website to share my lessons with students and teachers from around the world. I want to show English learners that they can get better, they just need the right tools. Many of my students used to tell me that they had been studying English for many years without seeing any progress. They had almost lost hope thinking that the problem is them. Almost always, the problem is not the student, but the quality of the tools (lessons, worksheets, books) they use.

I started teaching when I moved from Canada to Italy in 2013. Like every other teacher, I used textbooks or lessons that I found online for my lessons. Planning my lessons was very frustrating at first, because the textbooks were usually outdated and taught formal English that native and native speakers never use. Of course, there are a few websites that offer good quality lessons, but the majority of them used content that was boring and limited. I thought if the lessons are boring for me to teach, I wonder how my students feel!

So, this inspired me to create my own lessons. I looked for short and recent videos, articles or blog posts that discuss a variety of interesting topics and I designed practice around them, and my students loved them. They were excited to learn, never bored, and they experienced progress in a few months that they had been trying to reach for years.

Why do these lessons work? Because the content is interesting and relevant, and naturally, students become motivated and stay motivated when they’re interested! The lessons are designed around real life English that we use today, not 20 years ago and not only in classrooms. We observe and study the language that native and native speakers use which is completely different from the content you’ll find in any academic textbook. The lessons focus on common and everyday conversational words and expressions that traditional language schools never teach you.
