Ciao! È difficile cercare di presentarsi in poche righe, caspita! Forse il miglior modo per presentarmi potrebbe essere quello di parlarvi delle mie passioni. Amo la letteratura...penso che poche cose al mondo mi rendano felice come la lettura di un buon libro. Forse solo il viaggiare...ma andiamo, chi viaggia senza portarsi un buon libro sotto braccio? E questo mio amore per i viaggi e la letteratura mondiale mi porta all'altra mia grande passione, le lingue! Ecco ciò che vorrei offrirvi. Insegnare le lingue e le letterature mi darebbe modo di condividere con voi ciò che per me rappresenta quasi una raison d'être! E questo ci porta alla mia terza grande passione, l'insegnamento. Ed è proprio la passione per l'insegnamento, la letteratura e le lingue che mi ha portata a compiere un determinato percorso di studi che mi permettesse di fondere queste mie passioni. Possiedo difatti una laurea in Lingue e Letterature straniere ed una laurea magistrale in Filologia moderna ad indirizzo storico-didattico; attualmente sto svolgendo un dottorato di ricerca nel dipartimento di Italianistica presso la NUIG di Galway. È un percorso che mi ha permesso di entrare nel mondo dell'insegnamento, dandomi molte soddisfazioni; perché non c'è nulla di più soddisfacente che insegnare la cultura e vederne i frutti nel rendimento scolastico dei ragazzi che ho seguito. Spero che questa mia presentazione possa fornirvi un piccolo scorcio sulla mia persona. A presto, Michela Titoli: - Diploma presso il Liceo Socio-Psico-Pedagogico Veronica Gambara di Brescia - Laurea Triennale in Lingue e Letterature Straniere Moderne presso UNIBG (Inglese & Spagnolo) - Laurea Magistrale in Filologia Moderna presso l'Università degli Studi di Bergamo - Dottorato di ricerca in Italianistica presso NUIG Galway (in corso) Certificazioni: - IELTS Academic: 7.5 (Livello C1)

University Instructor, guiding BA students in foundational English courses, and PhD Scholar in English -Preferred Age Group: Above Year 6 (Native & EFL/ESL) -Main Focus: AQA/OCR/Edexcel GCSE, AS, and A Levels -IELTS exam board In my four years of teaching, I’ve noted that most GCSE students overlook contextual understanding, critical thinking, time management, study habits, exam techniques, expression, and real-life application. With over 60 students in 2024, I’ve developed a unique program to support them both theoretically and practically in their language and literature studies. Simply put, I know what I'm doing. Language is not just a tool for communication, it's rather a reflection of how we see ourselves, our world and culture. I recently published my thesis on sexism and gender bias to help promote social justice by teaching politically correct language. In light of my recent research I learned that each student has a unique mind and uses different techniques to learn. Hence, my responsibility entails guiding each individual to unlock their complete potential. In my free time, I’m captivated by football, traveling, and a bit of gaming, which provides a refreshing break from my scholarly activities. ✩Valedictorian Education: PhD Candidate MA High distinction researcher: Sociopragmatics & Classroom Research ✩Attained the top position in Bachelor's degree studies specializing in English Linguistics and Literature ✩Secured the highest ranking in both Masters 1 and Masters 2 studies focusing on Linguistic Research ✩Holder of a Bachelor's degree in Education and recipient of a Teaching Diploma (Masters 1) Participation in Seminars/Webinars: • Attended Oxford University Press' Webinar on Writing Approaches with Fusion in Mind • Engaged in Noam Chomsky's Webinar addressing Modern Linguistics • Actively participated in Stephen Krashen's Webinar discussing Writing and Publishing • Enriched understanding through "The Art of Complaint: Managing Conflicts" seminar • Explored Nonviolent Communication in a dedicated session • Conducted a seminar focused on the topic of Linguistic Sexism
