Experience Summary
Although only a Sophomore at George Washington University, I have been speaking Italian since a young child. Being born in Italy, and raised in America by Italian parents i have developed a very extensive and excellent speech in Italian. After Studying 2 years of Italian as well, and being an Italian tutor at George Washington University, my skills are extremely evident and would be easy to transfer to learning speakers. On a daily basis I speak Italian to my parents and have traveled to Italy numerous times. During the last few years I have studied and tutored Italian and am considering it as my minor at George Washington University behind my current Major of Public Health.
Teaching Style
As a previous tutor for children learning italian, I learned the repetition and fun are two of the key elements. Gaining a relationship with the child and understanding how they learn the best. Some children learn better by speaking rather then writing, others the opposite. Being friendly and patient are key elements to teaching, I've noticed in my past tutoring experience that it will be the key to success. Students wanting tutoring in any subject show their dedication to the subject, therefore, i will be even more dedicated to teaching them. Preparing myself prior to the tutoring sessions is one of the most important parts of my tutoring experiences, creates a more fluid teaching style, and shows my understanding of the subject.
