Many English-speaking foreigners living here will, at some point, teach English. (If you do, it’s obviously best to get a proper qualification and to work at a reputable school for a while so you get some on-the-job training and benefit from observations and feedback from more experienced teachers. Good schools provide their teachers with ongoing training.)
There are many jobs offered privately through the Living in Bergamo Facebook group and many language schools frequently looking for native English speakers.
If you need a little refresher on (or a taster of) different approaches to language learning and teaching, this free online course offered by FutureLearn in association with the University of Southampton might interest you.
