Usare 'Fare' e 'Essere' con le professioni
Faccio l'insegnante.
Sono insegnante.
When talking about professions, Italian uses both 'fare' (to do) and 'essere' (to be). 'Faccio...' + definite article + profession is more common and informal. 'Sono...' + profession (no article) is correct but more formal.
I am a teacher.
