About me Ciao! My name is Andrea and I am a native Italian with years of Italian language teaching experience, graduated from University of... Rome.  I lived in London and Los Angeles for several years. Then I attended courses for teaching Italian as a second language. I have been teaching Italian language to foreigners for 4 years and it has been very satisfying so far.  Qualifications & Experience Since I was attending primary school until I graduated from University I have always studied both Italian and English languages. After University I continued my studies attending courses for becoming a professional teacher of Italian as a foreign language and then started to work as a teacher abroad in London and LA. Today I am teaching mostly online, I really like this way of working: technology gave me the opportunity to reach all of my students living in different countries and continents. I love my job and I am passionate about it. I teach Italian language to foreigners and it has been very satisfying so far. I give online lessons and also in person when the student lives in my own city, the beautiful Rome. I currently have many students who come from different countries like Netherlands, Brazil, USA, Russia, Poland, France, Ireland, Germany, Austria, Scotland, Switzerland, Ukraine, Belgium, Israel etc. Students who attend my courses work at professional level in ESA, FAO, UN here in Rome. Students who live abroad of Italy are doctors, smart entrepreneurs, artists, writers or very good and young students. They all need to learn Italian for both private / professional reasons. I am highly qualified for improving your pronunciation, public speaking and oratory skills since I attended diction courses for longer than 5 years. My students are the first to show me gratitude for the good results and improvements they achieve attending the course. They tell me enthusiastically about the successes achieved both at work and in private-daily life by learning the Italian language with me.  Teaching Approach I always try to understand what kind of student I have in front of me, where he/she comes from and his/her age. The way I teach to kids is different than the way I use to teach to adults. I always try to meet the student's needs, guiding him/her gently. If the student needs to know more grammar I start my lessons teaching more rules, following a Structural approach: this means that I would start teaching the language as a complex of grammatical rules which are to be learned one at a time in a set order. Along with that it is possible to do some grammar translations to and from the target language and to practice some Audio - Lingual method (learning through the practice of dialogues of every situations). Only after all this I push the student towards a Direct method, that means that it is possible only to use the target language: the teacher explains everything using the target language only and the learner is not allowed to use his or her mother tongue.  When the student starts to speak fluently I like to focus more on the pronunciation, about the way he/she sounds practising with the student more conversation, analyzing his/her fluency, mental blocks or mispronunciation. The student has to sound as natural as possible after few months.   Read more

Hi, I'm Francesca I have been teaching Italian to adults since 2010, individual and group lessons. I have a degree in English and French, and... I have a diploma of interpreter in German. In the summer I teach Italian in full immersion courses in Tuscany, where I live. I really enjoy helping people to learn more not only about Italian as a language but also the rich Italian culture. Usually I divide my lessons into three parts: a bit of grammar (which is unfortunately very useful...but I can teach you some tricks to learn without much effort!), a listening/reading comprehension part usually with videos, songs, docs about Italy and then ... we talk about Italy! I will provide all material, and I'll send them by email. Read more

Hello everyone, My name is Ilaria, I am 30 years old, I have a post-graduate Master in Linguistic Education at the Ca'Foscari University of... Venice. I currently teach Italian to foreigners online. I gained numerous experiences abroad, I volunteered for one year in Romania, then I worked for two years in Bucharest and two in Ireland in the field of customer service for international companies. I am a native speaker of Italian but I speak fluent English, Romanian and French. I currently live in Bologna. I also love fitness, sitcoms, social media (memes are my passion) and, when the crown allows it, travel. Can't wait to hear from you! Do not hesitate to send me a message if you would like to be guided in your process of learning my beautiful language. I have a CEDILS certification. In the first lesson I try to get an impression of the students, their attitude, cognitive style, needs, level of exposure to the language, motivation etc. I try an inductive - conversational approach first, I plan every lesson and I provide the student with a Google Drive file, anticipating contents and activities.Mostly I tend to work on what it's best for the students (ex. some of them prefer learning tables with grammar rules, verbs etc by heart, I make them understand that this is not considered the fastest nor most efficient way generally, but if it works for them I encourage it). I always try to make them capable of learn by their own and I want them to see me as a facilitator, a guide, not "the person who owns the knowledge". I keep my students focused by constantly stimulating them, asking questions, asking them to share thoughts and formulate hypotheses. Also I always provide explanations for what I do, why I do it in a certain way and at a certain time. I also use a manual. I often propose topics related to intercultural themes, news, environment, LGBT+ but also tv series, movies and so on, I discuss with students what they'd like to work on and I find or create from scratch activities for them.

WHO AM I? My name is Andrea Polverini and I would like to give you some information about myself on a personal and professional level. I... have been working as an English teacher since 1998 and as an Italian teacher since 2004. Since 2009, I have been working as a translator. I graduated in English philology (University of Pisa) and later specialised in audiovisual translation (University of Surrey). From an educational point of view, I trained through courses for English teachers such as the CELTA (Certificate in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages - Cambridge Assessment English) and the DELTA (Diploma in Teaching English to Speakers of Other Languages - Cambridge Assessment - Module 1). I have lived and worked in countries such as the United Kingdom, Venezuela, Ireland and currently reside in Spain. I am passionate about foreign languages. In addition to English and Spanish, which I currently work with, I continue to study and practice other languages such as French, Catalan and German. My more than 15 years of experience teaching Italian and English to students of different nationalities, ages and levels have given me the opportunity to reflect on my role as a foreign language teacher and to evolve into a coach. More than a transmitter of knowledge, I want to be a travelling companion for my clients, with whom I can discover the most suitable path for each of them towards their personalised language goals. WHAT TO EXPECT FROM ONE OF MY ITALIAN SESSIONS? We are all different human beings, with different personalities, feelings and a unique brain. In a relaxed atmosphere conducive to the learning process, I will guide you by respecting your personality and help you take full responsibility for the learning process. It will be up to you to help me set your goals as accurately as possible from the test session. Your progress, as far as possible, will be measured. Your goals and progress will be reviewed periodically. Motivation will be the key to your commitment to your learning. I can only help you find your motivation, but I cannot give it to you. For your learning to be effective, you must already have it within you. You will bear the weight of the work, because the one who does, learns. I will only serve as a guide. The sessions will take place without any pressure and in an atmosphere of complete relaxation. This will help you get rid of any internal blocks that would be an obstacle to the development of your language skills. Your memory will be stimulated through positive emotions and regular review. During the sessions, you will always receive feedback from me, but in a way that interferes as little as possible with the conversation. Your curiosity will be encouraged through the use of material that is relevant to you, with open-ended questions and allowing you time to respond, without trying to finish your sentences. Suggestions rather than instructions will be given and useful silences necessary for reflection will be allowed. As far as possible and unless specifically requested by you, the use of textbooks designed for language learning will be avoided. Any audio-visual or written stimuli will be chosen with you in mind. The relationship between us will not be the typical teacher-student relationship. We will be travelling companions and we will work together to achieve the set objectives. Your emotions and moods will be as important as your brain in the learning process. Finally, you will never be judged for anything you say during the session and you will always receive my support for your efforts. My only aim is to help you develop your potential. Read more

Hi my name is Irma Caputo. I am 34 years old. I am so glad to start my experience with you! I love my job and I love to offer the people the... experience of a fulfill immersion in another culture through the language. I am a language teacher and university researcher. I completed may Phd in "Estudos da linguagem" in Brazil at Puc-Rio de Janeiro with a thesis about philosophy of language, translation and esthetic; the core point was Nuno Ramo's book "Ó" (2008), that I translated to Italian (my mother tongue). I always studied in the field of foreign languages and literature and along the time I took some courses and specialization about how to teach a foreign or second language (as DITALS II for example). I have a long teaching experience, especially of Italian and Portuguese, as foreign languages. I worked already in Brazil, Argentina, Italy and Germany. Some big institutions were I thaught languages are: Italiana Institute for culture of Rio de Janeiro, Italian Institute Alessandro Manzoni of Buenos Aires, Enel Brazil. The Method: I work with a communicative method. The first goal is to communicate. The oral expression is the focus, but it doesn't mean that we will not study grammar. Starting from some functions of the language, that is how to reach a communicative goal, we study the vocabulary and the frases we need to reach this goal and through a reflection about these phrases (inductive and deductive), we will also study the grammar structure we need to produce them. Even if we focus on oral expression, it will be important the harmonic development of all linguistics abilities such as reading, listening, writing, speaking. Other abilities such as intercultural communications will be really important. Material used: The material will be deposited in digital format in the Dropbox account of the course and the student will be responsible for printing it. Handout composed by a selection of authentic materials: - readings taken from newspapers, magazines, books and blogs with exercises and activities created ad hoc for the development of specific objectives based on the proposed input; - audios of radio conversations, live dialogues, and TV programs with exercises and activities ad hoc created for the development of specific objectives based on the input proposed; - videos taken from specific channels of the main social networks and the Internet, television programmes, websites of different types taken from the Brazilian network with exercises and activities created ad hoc for the development of specific objectives based on the proposed input. This material will be integrated with a book that we will use during the lessons and some grammars handbook Didactic structure and approach Based on a selection of topics treated through the chosen material in the manner mentioned above, there will be an associated programme related to the structures of the language (grammar) and stimuli for the development of pragmatic, sociolinguistic, and intercultural skills. The grammar, therefore, will be approached in a deductive and reflective way from analyses of the proposed materials. It will always occur after the analysis and approach of the materials, which represent the language in a living context, so that structures will never be presented loosely in the form of a lesson. The selected topics, in order to facilitate a better understanding and approach to the reality of contemporary world, cover and address different areas. In the first levels (A1, A2) the topics are especially connected to the functions of language (how to orde something at the bar, how to reserve a room). I also work as free-lance interpreters and translators (italian Brazilian Portuguese), it helps to better understand some linguistic processes. Read more
