Italian or English Grammar and Conversation Expert

I have a Bachelor's Degree and Single Subject Secondary credential in Italian. I have tutored hundreds of students, from beginners to advanced, over the past 15 years. Since Italian is not my native language, I am especially adept at helping speakers of English approach Italian as a second language. I am native English speaking, fluent Italian, spoken and written.
Over the past 20 years, I have taught Italian to students of all ages and backgrounds. I have a Bachelor's degree in Italian and a secondary teaching credential from San Francisco State University. I love to help students gain an understanding of Italian grammar from an English-speaking point of view, or improve conversational ability for an upcoming trip. I am expert in English grammar as well, and have been published multiple times in local magazines, so I can help students of English with all grammar and writing qu ... read more

Learning can be fun!!

When tutoring, I strive to make lessons engaging, effective and enjoyable. Specifically, I tailor lessons according to an individual student's needs and involve students in a dialogue by asking questions that provoke thought, conversation, and perhaps humor. Because facts and figures are easily looked up in the information age, I place particular emphasis on thinking and on "learning how to learn". My teaching goals for any student are threefold: 1. learn the material (well!) 2. pass the test/subject (with a comfortable margin!), and 3. enjoy it (most challenging with math!).
I love learning and teaching alike. My first teaching experience was in high school when I helped teach inner city children how to swim. Following high school, I earned a bachelor's degree in genetics at UC Berkeley, during which time I worked as a teacher's assistant for a genetics professor. While in m ... read more

A Little Bit About Me...

I always wanted to be a teacher, but ended up being an engineer. I enjoy teaching in general and tutoring is a way for me to practice teaching. I enjoy tutoring kids and teenagers and be a mentor for them. I'm easy going and knowledgeable of the material. I like to be dynamic in my sessions to get the student's attention when they are tired and don't want to pay attention. I'm patient, responsible, and very dependable.
During my four years at Colorado State University, I tutored high school and college students in math and spanish. I also taught spanish to elementary school kids. After I graduated, I worked a part time position at Pueblo Community College as a Tutor/Lab Assistant.

My teaching style is very hands-on. I have found that students retain information longer and are more interested in learning if they can participate in the process. I have always received high marks in all my professional reviews and continue to strive for excellence. Although my teaching experience and my credential is in Adult Education, I have taught and tutored children.
My area of interest is English and ESL. My teaching experience was part-time, as I was employed full-time as a newspaper advertising sales executive, and that was my main income. I am an excellent teacher and have experience with all types of students. My tutoring experience was during my time at San Jost City College. I tutored students in English, Black Studies and Creative Writing. I also tutored a child with learning disabilities in basic subjexts.
