About Me

italki teacher since Apr 13, 2020

I come from Sardinia, a wonderful island in the centre of the Mediterranean Sea. I studied in Bologna, Naples and Heidelberg (Germany). For working reasons, I also lived in Istanbul and in Berlin for a few months. I love foreign languages, nature (I'm a professional hiking guide), listening to music, reading, and writing – when in Naples, I wrote for a local mag. We can speak about a lot of different topics: from music to current news, from books to everyday life. It's up to you!

Me as a Teacher

I started to teach Italian in Bologna, after graduating in 2013. My first teaching experience was in a school for migrants with different language competences and different life stories: refugees, exchange students, workers. Teaching Italian fascinated me, thus I chose to follow this path. I obtained the DITALS II certificate and I attended numerous courses of didactics and pedagogy. I taught Italian also in Naples, in a structure for asylum seekers, and in Turkey, at the University of Istanbul

My lessons & teaching style

I organize my lessons in a flexible way, based on the needs, competences and interests of the students. In my lessons, I favour conversation and the use of language. Grammar as a series of boring rules to be memorise will stay in the background. Rules will be assimilated by speaking.

Für jede Stunde denkt sich Marco ein interessantes Thema aus und bringt viele Beispiele und Erfahrung ein. Der Unterricht ist sehr abwechslungsreich und die Stunde vergeht jedes Mal wie im Flug. Außerdem bin ich dankbar für Marcos Geduld, wenn ich versuche, Sätze zu bilden, und mich zum 10. Mal nicht an ein Wort erinnere. 🙂 Es macht mir großen Spaß!
