was born in Italy but has lived and travelled across Europe a lot during her studies. She has a master\u2019s degree in Translation, but found her true calling in teaching, sharing her experience and knowledge with others. So, in September 2024, she became an English teacher.\r\n\r\nBesides teaching and travelling, she loves painting. She\u2019s held three art exhibitions in different cities in Italy, including an individual one as well as with other Italian artists. Don\u2019t ask her to choose between a lazy Sunday afternoon with her cat or a Sunday morning bike trip outdoors, she won\u2019t be able to choose between them easily.\r\n\r\nShe believes great communication is the key to success, that\u2019s why she does her best to create a friendly and supportive environment for her students to help them thrive.\r\n\r\n&nbsp;\n

born and raised in Florence but has been living abroad for the past 8 years. She loves learning new languages and that&#8217;s the reason why she left Italy and decided to explore the world and its different cultures. She has lived in Morocco, Qatar, the UAE, Malaysia, Vietnam, and Spain. Currently she lives in Slovakia.\r\n\r\nGiada is quite introverted but she also loves meeting new people, exploring new places, dancing, and roller-skating.\r\n\r\nTeaching is a big passion of hers. Even though she has tried different types of jobs, she has always come back to teaching. She believes that studying a language is a life-changing experience.\r\n\r\nFor her, teaching English is like building a bridge which connects people and creates opportunities. She believes that establishing a good relationship with students, understanding their needs and interests, is a key component in their improvement and growth.\r\n<div>\r\n<div id=\"copilot-message-_r_u7_\" class=\"fai-CopilotMessage__content r1izxv8h ___7qar2c0 fcthzvy\" dir=\"auto\">\r\n<div>\r\n<div dir=\"auto\">\r\n<div class=\"___1vve6yh f22iagw f1vx9l62 f122n59 f3bhgqh f1mnxvew fly5x3f\">\r\n<div class=\"___j4vmuw0 f22iagw f1vx9l62 f1869bpl fly5x3f fbc6vix\">\r\n<div tabindex=\"-1\" data-testid=\"loading-message\">\r\n<div>\r\n<div>\r\n<div id=\"response-id_r_u5_\" class=\"___1yop6mf f336tjw f9ijwd5 fz7g6wx fod5ikn f1s184ao\" data-testid=\"lastChatMessage\">\r\n<div class=\"___1peis63 f22iagw f1063pyq f6jr5hl f1c88k3p\">\r\n<div class=\"___4htdyp0 fz7g6wx fy77jfu\">\r\n<div class=\"___1j4t0a1 f1lmfglv f1abmfm4\" dir=\"auto\" aria-hidden=\"false\" data-testid=\"markdown-reply\" data-message-id=\"b52a2198-0c41-4b3f-93bf-ae840a81c9f0\" data-message-type=\"Chat\">\r\n<div class=\"___nfp7g60 f22iagw f1vx9l62 fkmyikg fk15e71 f1k953kz f137keqj f1rncccw f1stllg3 f1w4kmmc f1tric3v f10dk5ic fx8cdsv f16nlwsl f1eookvz fhjrts3 fqugt2f f18d18k8 f1v1vhmp f1hdmul3 f198vjnp f2dshw1 fjpjndq fnmj2pj ffrrb40 f1mon110 fhajzam fimndk6 fxv4dng fb1rn9k f59wlhv f1xmfh30 f18yf5o5 fmr6chf fw8qy2q ff161sd f1qr7t77 f1yyogn1 foogchg fp5872b f1tpb8gf f1hdgrc8 f1vatr43 frkxccd f9pdzkb f158oiaz ft5kggy f5l4ui7 f13j03li f18xdoka f8off4e f1go6zfc f128n2ra f1jpxw2j f1lwd9n0 fy0b8hm f1g2633v fx4kvgi fkvolse f1gxrt3a f1os76ua f1js9cnw f1g87ej0 freluf8 f1yggaq6 f2i3chp f1151osp florpoh f35kzfz ftp9m57 f1e288vi fz62hnz fixvuys f1nmofwh fc1c6mv f18a2er7 fhvkrdl fhxnn68 f1oce4bo fvhlfan f7tc0t0 f1ngf1n2 ffrzq6x f1yjiq2m f1aqdgql f1huvaf f10ij78l f1k94sa4 fkmfumq f1jvzkyl f1eu24ob f1xbfc1f fmf0lwf f107dsy8 f3w566c f4648sl f13zpkng f7unjfp f8p1rz fzu6h1w f1i1bi6h f1smo7hi f1sk1xod f1kgogdq f1gjktkp ft608jz f1o9wiiv fg3xr24 fhd155k f1b8gl2e fg4b9ou flb4lo fdicbfk fgwcyh1 f1jbds0d f1fb9uea f1stuka4 fcrtu6g fwqh0xn f11w66yg f6e0e65 f1vvgu0 f1607507 fgct6un f1ec1nbe fg3fpv7 f1m9bycv f1ntoah8 f1b694rt faql4r2 fpjuhzh fmavl6h f1d9bsk fmzhlt0 f145l92p fwkyaqm f129obh1 f19la9g f127w39w fr0ux9m fxhidck f1cu4h9j f1wnbo7v f1eueg4z fy9c24f f1h2o91j f1iw08fq f19n0e5\">\r\n\r\nIn addition to teaching, she is also an internationally accredited EMCC coach and mentor.\r\n\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<\/div>\r\n<div class=\"fai-CopilotMessage__actions rmlvq19 ___7qar2c0 fcthzvy\" role=\"toolbar\" data-tabster=\"{&quot;mover&quot;:{&quot;cyclic&quot;:false,&quot;direction&quot;:2,&quot;memorizeCurrent&quot;:true}}\"><\/div>\r\n<\/div>\n                    <\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n\n                  <div>\n\n                  <div class=\"rounded-xl  w-[300px] border border-natural-10\">\n  <div class=\"p-6 flex flex-col gap-6\">\n    <div style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/thebridge.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0481-w-225x300.jpg')\" class=\"w-full bg-center rounded-lg bg-cover h-[200px]\">\n    <\/div>\n    <div>\n\n    \n    \n     \n    \n            \n        <\/div>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                          <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                  <div class=\"flex flex-col gap-6 items-center rounded-xl border border-natural-10 p-6 pt-12 \">\n          <div class=\"w-full flex justify-center\">\n                        <div style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/thebridge.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0286-w-225x300.jpg')\"\n                   class=\"w-[160px] h-[160px] bg-cover bg-center rounded-lg\"><\/div>\n                      \n        <\/div>\n          <div class=\"text-center flex flex-col gap-2\">\n            <h3\n              class=\"text-xl fullhd:text-2xl font-bold\">Andrea Z\u00e1humensk\u00e1<\/h3>\n                        <p class=\"desktop:text-lg text-sm\">Andrea is currently the Director of Studies at the Bridge English Language Centre in Bratislava, Slovakia.

able to have a rich conversation with her on any topic.\r\n\r\nShe has graduated from translating English and Russian in Ukraine and later gained an MBA in the US.\r\n\r\nDarya (Dasha) comes from Ukraine and has been a teacher at The Bridge since 2020.\r\n\r\nWhat he values the most about teaching is \u201cthe opportunity to help my students and celebrate the results of their hard work.\u201d She loves self-improvement and lifelong learning, finding it daily in her teaching job.\r\nShe started teaching while still at university. She is organised, responsible and able to establish a good rapport with her students quickly. She is multilingual and has excellent communication and problem solving skills.\r\n\r\nThe best way to relax, according to Darya, is a long walk in the woods with a good audiobook and headphones. She regularly skypes with her two chihuahuas living with her family in Ukraine.\n                    <\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n\n                  <div>\n\n                  <div class=\"rounded-xl  w-[300px] border border-natural-10\">\n  <div class=\"p-6 flex flex-col gap-6\">\n    <div style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/thebridge.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0744-w-225x300.jpg')\" class=\"w-full bg-center rounded-lg bg-cover h-[200px]\">\n    <\/div>\n    <div>\n\n    \n    \n     \n    \n            \n        <\/div>\n\n  <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                  <\/div>\n\n                <\/div>\n          <\/div>\n        <\/div>\n    <\/div>\n<\/div>\n                          <\/div>\n                <\/div>\n                  <div class=\"flex flex-col gap-6 items-center rounded-xl border border-natural-10 p-6 pt-12 \">\n          <div class=\"w-full flex justify-center\">\n                        <div style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/thebridge.sk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_0325-w-225x300.jpg')\"\n                   class=\"w-[160px] h-[160px] bg-cover bg-center rounded-lg\"><\/div>\n                      \n        <\/div>\n          <div class=\"text-center flex flex-col gap-2\">\n            <h3\n              class=\"text-xl fullhd:text-2xl font-bold\">Emma Wyatt<\/h3>\n                        <p class=\"desktop:text-lg text-sm\">Emma is a friend we all wish we had.
