Hi there, Matteo here!
I discovered my passion for foreign languages by travelling solo. That sense of remuneration that you get when you can finally communicate with someone who does not speak your language is worth all the hard work we need to learn a foreign language. Today I know 6 languages, I am not totally fluent in all of them but I know that is all a matter of time. I try to study every day, but what I call study is often free selected reading, movies and conversations. I love doing those activities and I am not stressed at all in doing them, I try to enjoy the process as much as possible. When possible I try to help out those people who are learning Italian.

Me as a Teacher
As you can read above language learning never really ends, the more I learn the more I believe it. Some people see it as an impediment to their goal, I suggest them to see it as its own beauty. Everyone has different objectives and depending on those the method of learning a language may drastically change. Personally I have been studying languages in different ways, from the totally carefree state of mind to the strict academic methods in universities.
As in many other aspects of life extremes do not seemed to work that good for me, being constant and keeping it amusing instead does work pretty good with me, and is the methodology I would love to use to LET YOU ACQUIRE Italian.
My lessons & teaching style
My classes are based on the Comprehensible Input Hypothesis an academic work written by Stephen D. Krashen on 1982. For teaching purposes languages are commonly divided in four abilities: Reading, Listening, Speaking and Writing. I strongly believe that the first two must be well developed before attempting the latter two. What is the point of being able to formulate sentences if you will not be able to understand the answer of the people you are speaking to? Nobody will ever be able to teach you a language, the only thing I can do is to provide you the right material and to keep you motivated YOU WILL ACQUIRE THE LANGUAGE provide you get the exposure and the quality you need!

Matteo mi ha consigliato di guardare alcuni bei film italiani. Matteo e io abbiamo parlato di diversi argomenti per 2 ore consecutive. Matteo mi ha insegnato molte parole ed espressioni utili.

My first lesson with Matteo was great! I liked the energy he brought to the session and he is easy to talk to. I will definitely be booking more sessions with Matteo!
