My comments on tutoring Italian : Native Speaker

Focus on understanding the language and its structure, avoiding memorization of strict grammatical rules.
I am a native to Northern Italy, the place where I spent my primary and secondary school years. I moved from Europe to Kentucky last year, and I am now a sophomore Chemical Engineering student at UK. Italy is a very diverse place, from Italo Romance languages of Southern and Central Italy to Celtic italic languages of Northern Italy, with the addition of scattered German linguistic minorities. After the creation of Italy in 1961, Italian, the indigenous language of Tuscany and the language of the intellectuals and the aristocracy, became the official language of government bureaucracy. However, it was still unknown to a very large percentage of the population, and it was only after WW2 that ordinary people started learning and using Italian.
