🥞 They’re selling like hot cakes!
🧀 The big cheese said no.. 🙄
🍪 You are one smart cookie! 🤓
🧈Are you trying to butter me up!?
🥛They’re the cream of the crop! 👑

Food idioms are WEIRD! Don’t and take a conversation based course with me! 🍎

🇺🇸: Open air market
🇮🇹: Mercato aperto (or often, just mercato!)

Did you know that open air markets are not as common in the USA as they are in Italy? 🍉 🌽 🍅 🥩 🐟

Americans typically shop at supermarkets for their food and tend to be very particular about which name brand store they prefer.

🇺🇸: To sizzle
🇮🇹: Friggere

🤤🤤Yummmm🤤🤤
Most of my students know I LOVE Mexican food.
I could eat tacos 🌮 every day!

If I could be as interesting as fajitas, tacos, nachos, or even GUACAMOLE 🥑, I would be the proudest teacher on earth 🌍🤤✨

Italian: 🚹 Viaggiatore
🚺 Viaggiatrice
English: 🚻 Traveler

Italy was the first country I visited outside of the USA. I was backpacking and had grand plans of making my way through France and Spain as well… but that never happened 😅. Once I got off the train in Florence and walked into this piazza, I fell in love 😍. 11 years later, I finally found my way back and get to walk past Santa Maria Novella on my way to work 📚. It still takes my breath away 🥰.

“WHY IS YOUR LANGUAGE SO WEIRD?” 🤣🤓😏

This one ticks all my favorite boxes:
✅Gender neutral English 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️
✅Made me LOL 😂
✅English’s quirky tough side 💪🦹‍♂️

English language is constantly evolving. So is LGBTQ+ vernacular. 🌈

I swear to always learn, grow and teach WITH you while we all do our best to represent our community. 🖤✨

We will make mistakes and THAT’S OK! It’s how we stay accountable, humble and learn from our mistakes that matters. ☀️

Let’s do better together ❤️🧡💛💚💙💜🖤🤍

I spontaneously said “guinzaglio” in a sentence for the first time today! 🤩

In English, guinzaglio translates to “leash,” in Italian 🐕. I have been trying to remember this word since I moved to Italy with my dog nearly 1yr ago but it just never stuck… 🤷‍♀️

Sometimes learning a language is weird! Sometimes your brain just. Won’t. Do. What. You. Want. It. To! 🤯

Trust me. I get it. 😵‍💫
Let’s be language learners together! I’m a pro at English but it took a lot of hard work to get here. 📚

I can’t wait to help you remember all those tough English words and phrases!!! 💬

PS: There’s a solid chance my dog will make an appearance in your Zoom class with me 🐕

***Calling all future servers***
Do you know how to talk to your customers about food? 🍳 What about your chef? 👩‍🍳

Before I was an English teacher, I was a hostess/food runner/server/bartender/manager at AWESOME restaurants in the USA! ✨

If you aspire to improve your English to land an English speaking restaurant job, I’m DEFINITELY the teacher for you 💪

First things first: EGGS 🥚 🥚 🥚
Get ready for that brunch shift 😉

I love this advice. I always want to wait to execute my projects until everything is perfect ( ) ♑️. I’m learning that’s just not how life works, no matter how badly I wish it does.

Take the risk ☀️Change the thing 💥Live the experience ✨My students’ feedback and support constantly changes how I teach and I wouldn’t be where I am now without them.

To all my students past, present and future: THANK YOU!!! I can swear we will laugh and learn together while we learn a thing or two about the English language together 💪🖤🌎

JK! (Just kidding) 😆
There are SO MANY words with silent letters in English. It can be tricky to remember them all 😅
Many of my students are Spanish and Italian language speakers so I hear this one allllll the time. Let’s practice together!

What are some other silent letter words what drive you crazy? 😜 I’ll start:
-Knife 🔪
-Ghost 👻
-Climb 🧗‍♀️
-Bomb 💣
