I have been a translator, interpreter, and language tutor for over twenty years. My goal is to make the most of my experience to maximize the full potential of every student. Let's build bridges of communication!
Sono traduttore ed interprete da oltre vent'anni. Metto la mia esperienza al servizio degli studenti per valorizzare il loro potenziale linguistico. Costruiamo insieme ponti di comunicazione!
Llevo veinte años como traductor, intérprete y mi objectivo es realizar el potencial máximo de cada estudiante.
Je suis traducteur et interprète depuis plus de vingt ans et mon but est de valoriser au maximum le potentiel de chaque étudiant. Construisons ensemble des ponts d'amitié!Me as a Teacher
Each student is a precious gem. My goals: making every lesson effective and enjoyable; boosting the students' confidence; working on topics that really matter to them.
Ogni persona è una gemma preziosa. L'idea è di rendere ogni lezione interessante e proficua, con focus specifico sugli argomenti e sugli aspetti linguistici che contano davvero per lo studente.
Chaque individu est un bijou. Je préfère une approche détendue, afin de faciliter l'interaction avec l'étudiant, pour que l'apprentissage soit plus efficace et plus agréable.
Acho que um jeito descontraído na interação com os estudantes seja a melhor maneira de tornar a aprendizagem mais eficaz e agradável. My lessons & teaching style
I believe that learning should always be a joy, a pleasure. According to the students' level and specific requests, my goal is to improve their ability to speak and understand the language; boosting their reading and writing skills is also a goal.
I propose tailor-made exercises and grammar lessons, as well as specific subjects such as business terminology, literature, travel vocabulary, the art of translation, and real life situations.My teaching material

Franco is a gem. Since he is a translator by profession, he is able to offer a linguistic perspective when sustaining conversation and explaining concepts. He is also worldly and learned.

Le lezioni con il prof. Franco sono sempre pieni di dialogo e si acquisiscono sempre nuove frasi e termini. Sempre perfetto il suo metodo di insegnamento.
Un grosso ringraziamento

Franco is fantastic! However, the connection on italki is frequently TERRIBLE. We both get "kicked out" a few times --which is what happened in today's lesson.

I have really enjoyed my Italian lessons with Franco . He is friendly and helpful but he is also very knowledgeable about languages and cultures which makes our conversations interesting and good fun , in fact they go too quickly. I have also studied Spanish and Franco's ability to move from one language to another is amazing and helps make the comparisons and contrasts which are a real help to gain a deeper understanding of the language.
