Italian is one of my top subjects! I have been studying the Italian language and culture since 2009 and have been living in Italy since 2012. My teaching experience includes two years of high school language courses in Italy and also the tutoring of children ages 6-11.

My teaching style is more non traditional. I use many games that come from my theatrical background. Many of the games require students to be on their feet. I make learning Italian a physical process, not just a mental one. I focus on the importance of the pronunciation of words. I use pictures and film clip to engage both visual and auditory learners.
After graduating with a degree in Theatre, I turned my abilities towards mastering the spoken Italian language. I have studied Italian at DePaul University in Chicago, Lorenzo De Medici in Florence and Middlebury College in Vermont, where I am currently earning my masters over four summers. I also have two years of real world experience, as I have been living in the small town of Mantua, Italy since 2012. My life is not complete without the Italian language. While reading Italian text is an important way to reinforce vocabul ... read more

My comments on tutoring Italian : I returned from Palermo, Sicily in late December, 2014. I had been there working and living since June, teaching English to Italian children and adults. I have been going to Italy since 2010 annually and absolutely adore all things Italian. Speaking Italian is like eating cake with every word.

I truly believe conversation is the best way to learn a new language. There are many people who study grammer and vocabulary on paper for years, but when they are finally put in a real situation in which they are required to speak the language, all of their training fails them because they never did the most basic and important thing, which is to practice making the sounds with your mouth, practice saying the new words, practice actually using the new grammer structures.
I have always had a strong passion for languages and perhaps because of this have done extensive traveling. I have lived in several countries and speak several languages. In my adventures I have found time and again that the easiest, most effortless and fastest way to learn a language is to immerse oneself in that culture. Why? Because it is not enough to remember that "arrivederci" translates to "goodbye." Rather, ... read more

Born and raised in Italy until the age of 20 years old with a teaching experience for kids of age 6 to 22 years old, mostly at home during free time. Italian could be a hard language to learn, however, for those of you who would like to have at least a basic knowledge, I could be the right tutor for you. If interested, let me know.

A Little Bit About Me...

Every child should have the best educational experience possible, and I want to provide that for your child. I strive to teach each student why, not just what. A complete understanding of how something works will remain with a student much longer than the knowledge that it does work. I hope that by tailoring my teaching style to the individual, I can help him or her to achieve their maximum potential in each academic area. I absolutely love the materials I teach, and if I can impart that to my students, not only will I have accomplished my goal, but also they will have gained a passion for learning that will benefit them their entire life.
Beginning my foreign language education at the age of seven instilled in me a determination to master the French language and then use it to help others. I have earned a bachelor degree in French and graduated summa cum laude in three years. ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I have mostly taught university-level students but I have occasionally worked with high school students. I would like the opportunity to work with all age groups. In my opinion, students learn in many different ways so it is useful to approach difficult concepts in practical ways. I like to use visual media when teaching (films, excerpts from relevant programs, still images, powerpoint) to reiterate main points. I like to work closely with students and believe this type of communication is what allows each student to fully understand what's expected in the assignment. I believe providing a comfortable and easy going approach to tutoring so that learning is enjoyable. I am honest, patient, and nice.
I have taught university-level art history courses for the last 7 years. These courses include training in writing, presentation, and speaking in addition to their emphasis on the ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

My favorite teaching experiences have been tutoring students one on one-it is truly remarkable to see the improvement students can make when they are able to work at their own pace and with individualized attention. I am committed to helping children attain their goals through showing them how much I believe in their success. Through providing individualized attention, I enjoy adapting to how students best learn-whether it be through shorter, more frequent sessions, helping students to develop study strategies, or working with students to increase interest in a subject. I am very patient, compassionate, and flexible-I am committed to working with students to help them reach their goals. I also understand that parent and teacher communication can be essential to help a student reach these goals-and certainly would strive to maintain a relationship with a student's teachers to have an ... read more
