My 35 years of teaching are at your disposal! Languages are my life—I’ve spent over 30 years teaching Italian, French, English, and Afrikaans, and my passion for communication only grows stronger with time. Whether you're looking to master grammar intricacies or want lively, real-world conversation practice, I tailor each lesson to your unique goals. My approach combines patience with modern teaching techniques, creating a space where mistakes are just stepping stones to fluency. Students often describe me as approachable (and surprisingly fun for someone who geeks out over verb conjugations!). Beyond teaching, I'm a proud parent of three adult children—twins and a singleton—and a doting grandmother to two little girls (aged 1 and 2). I have been teaching languages since the age of 19 and have a lot of experience dealing with different types of people. I do have a lot of material prepared and I make it available to my students via email, Skype and WhatsApp. I am very organized, but the three decades of teaching experience allows me to 'go with the flow' if needs be. My teaching style varies a lot dependng on the requirements of the students. I aim to make the lessons as relevant as possible to the students, but I refuse to forego grammar and correct speech.

I like that she does not rush, does not make me feel stressed, very patient, tells me not to worry. Since it is not easy to learn a language that helps me to continue.

A wonderful teacher! It was such a pleasure to talk to you Sabrina. I really enjoyed it. Learning more about other countries, cultures and languages is something that greatly interests me. It was wonderful to talk to someone as passionate and knowledgeable about the topic as you!! Thank you for the lesson :)

I lost count of how many times in the lesson I had an exclamation mark pop up over my head! So many things are clear to me now that were foggy before. A great big boost to my Italian and to my motivation in learning more. Grazie mille, Sabrina!
