Luigi
Tutor di lingua e cultura italiana e napoletana IT NAP EN PT ES FR I am an extremely friendly person and my main need is to make you feel at ease. The meetings will be held by conversing mainly in Italian or Neapolitan, because I believe it is the best way to absorb the Italian language and culture. However, by also speaking English, French, Spanish and Portuguese we will be able to understand each other well in any case. Sou uma pessoa extremamente amigavel, portanto, minha principal preocupação é fazer com que você se sinta à vontade. Os encontros serão realizados conversando principalmente em italiano ou napolitano, pois acredito que essa seja a melhor maneira de absorver a língua e a cultura italianas.

Filippo Riccardi
Qualified Teacher of Italian as a Second and Foreign Language | DITALS Certified Teacher I'm a very thoughtful teacher who first of all does his best to put students at their ease in order to help them overcome their "affective filter". In other words, my students should feel totally comfortable and safe without ever worrying about, for example, making mistakes. Mistakes are actually our best friends when we learn a language. I'm also a very thorough teacher and like to give my students thoughtful replies. I'm not afraid of saying "Please, give me some more time to go into this matter. I'll send you an email later" or "We'll go back to it next time". I wouldn't be able to put together an improbable answer just to get out of trouble.
