Informazioni su di me
Insegnante di italki dal 29 Jun 2016Argomento di interesseStoriaAmbiente e naturaMusicaAnimaliLettura
Certified teacher of Italian (PhD, MA with Hons, DITALS Level 2). University Teaching Fellow and official CELI Certificates' examiner. I specialize in Test Preparation, General Italian, Academic Italian skills.
I have 10 years of experience teaching 1-on-1 classes and group classes, both on line and in person. Moreover, I train future teachers of Italian at a MA level.
I really love my job! I love supporting my students in achieving their goals and feel privileged to have a job that gets me to meet different people from various countries, cultures, and backgrounds.Che tipo di insegnante sono
With my extensive international academic and professional experience, I can provide flexible, quality teaching.
My motto's "Brain&Heart!" - Learning a language also involves emotions. I'll therefore be patient and supportive - always!♡
I have a strong inter-cultural awareness, which is a plus when it comes to teaching. Also, I can speak a few foreign languages myself: C2 English and Spanish, B1 German and B1 Galician. :)Le mie lezioni e il mio metodo di insegnamento
Structured lessons for all levels and purposes: general Italian learning, exam preparation, academic Italian, etc.
My lessons are:
* informative and fun! ;)
* tailored on every individual student's needs
* based on the Communicative Approach (we work on ‘real situations’ and you start speaking Italian from day 1 - really!)
You will:
* strengthen your all-round skills
* explore & gradually master all grammar issues, esp. the tricky ones
* get to know a whole culture
