Italian Teacher/Tutor in London

Teacher name: Alessandra

The best thing about teaching is the opportunity to create human contacts with your students, which act like bridges to convey notions and information about the language they wish to study. I reach my goals as a teacher when I manage to build these connections by respecting the students’ needs and personalities, and I can see significant results in their language skills. A teacher must be able to make students love the language they learn: this is the fundamental rule of my teaching style. Of course, strong knowledge and competence of the teacher are indispensable to reach this result.
I have had many experiences as a teacher so far, and what I discovered is that you have the chance to build the right connection with every kind of person you meet. The teacher must have the ability to recognize the best approach to be used with each of them; in order to do this, I think the best way could be having a preparatory meeting with the student. Through this, the teacher has the possibility to settle a proper linguistic and grammar plan based on the student’s needs and wishes. And s/he can speak with him/her, in order to establish a relationship founded on mutual trust and respect. Students must have the impression that the teacher is giving his/her best effort to make them improve their language. As well, the teacher must have the ability to make language interesting and keep boredom away from the lessons. Language is a living thing, and so the perfect lessons should be.

 

I believe to own quite a good intuition. This allows me to build the connection with my students, which I have written about so far. In my years of experience as a teacher, and of course through my entire studies I acquired the “technical” preparation which is primary for a good learning. I studied how to teach Italian to foreign students, I developed by myself a project in which I taught Italian to foreigners by visiting a museum in Bologna; I have studied English since my middle school days until now, and I still dedicate to it with passion and creativity. I like talking with my students, find out much about them. This empathy, my experience and the studies I have done make me confident in teaching.

Italian teacher in West London

Teacher name: Katrine 

I taught Italian Language, Literature and History at university and high school students.

As a university tutor, I helped students during their thesis preparation, I checked grammar and syntax mistakes in the projects and did useful research. In my opinion, one good method to learn is the self-learning: I showed my students their mistakes and brought them to understand what they did wrong, so they would not repeat the same error again. I also gave assistance and support to students.
As a Teacher, I taught Italian, History and Literature, I gave assistance and support in the learning process. I achieved abilities in communicating with the students and in teaching them how to learn the language:
– First of all, at the beginning, I think it is useful to explain the official rules of the grammar.
I believe grammar is an important component of any language. For example, without grammar one cannot understand the time of action, whether it is past or present, idioms and the correct construction of a sentence.
In my opinion, the simplest way to understand the grammar of the language, rather than just studying grammar rules, is to read any Italian book or newspaper. So, I am used to pushing my students to read as much as they can and, possibly, loudly (in this way, it is easier for them to acquire a good vocabulary too).
– Secondly, I often open free debates about different topics (the students can speak in Italian about anything they feel like) and, at the same time, I address them to use the language correctly, as the spoken language has to be understood. This will bring my students to use a correct pronunciation and expose their ideas clearly.
– Thirdly, listening! A good method to learn Italian is watching Italian movies, news, shows and getting in touch with Italian people. These methods allow to understand not only the language but also the Italian culture and “behaviour”, that is why I like to motivate my students to watch Italian TV and get connected with natives.
Furthermore, another important aspect to improve Italian language is the atmosphere!
The atmosphere should be quite, informal and cheerful and I encourage my students to talk on any topic and problem.

 

During my experience, I dealt with people who came from different country and, thanks to them, I learnt how each and every one had different culture and way of seeing the world. I think that the best way to be a great teacher is to keep an open mind and understand students’ difficulties while learning, by helping them to overcome their problems and fears. I explain in a clear and direct way by always keeping an eye on the tougher topics, trying to illustrate them in different ways to make all students understand them. In addition, I gained high-quality teaching skills during my Degree and PhD studies and I am sure I can awaken my students’ interest in learning more. Furthermore, I know how to handle my class well by opening debates and arousing important doubts related to the subject.

Teacher name: MARIA

In the past 5 years I’ve been working a lot in private tuition of several pupils, aged from 10 to 18, teaching them various subjects but especially languages (English, Spanish and French). I’m Italian mothertongue and I’ve just graduated in Chinese, so I would love to teach all these languages. Throughout my academic career I’ve met some amazing languages teachers who made me love learning foreign languages as much as the relative cultures. That’s why I would love to transmit the same passion to my tutees, always finidng some new approches to stimulate them according to their characters.

I’m young, cheerful and smily, and according to my experience with teachers that always helps! I’m prepared aswell though, because as I said, learning and later on teaching languages have always been part of my life.

Teacher name: Elena 

During the present year I have worked as a supply teacher in a French-Spanish school in Tenerife (Spain) with students aged 5-18 and as a supply teacher of Spanish in a language academy for adults. I have also participated in a research project in Applied Linguistics for the last four years while completing my PhD.

I have finished a six-month postgraduate course in teaching Spanish as a foreign language via the UNED (National Distance Education University, Spain), which has helped me to deepen my theoretical and practical knowledge of the process of teaching and learning a foreign language.

I have vast experience as a private teacher. Since 2008 I have tutored students of different ages and levels, teaching them Spanish, English or through homework help.

One of my greatest strengths is organisation and attention to detail. I am passionate about teaching and languages in general, and I firmly believe that there is always something that would motivate students to learn a new language and, precisely, guiding them through the process so they can, at least, attempt to discover how a language might help them in the future, is one of my main goals.

Regarding my teaching style, I think I try to be flexible and adapt myself to the students’ age, level, needs and preferences. Lessons are then prepared depending on these necessities. I like to combine different types of exercises and skills, and to use authentic materials which provide language in real contexts, including music, films, books, magazines and games. I believe that language cannot be acquired in isolation. It must definitely be taught as part of a culture, so intercultural skills must be emphasized and acquired through the lessons as well.

 

In my opinion, a great teacher should be not only an expert in the area he teaches, but someone who knows how to transmit his knowledge and make it relevant to the students. Passion and patience are therefore key attributes for a good teacher. I believe that the students’ motivation is, to a large extent, due to the teacher’s abilities and attitudes in the classroom. Moreover, the type of activities, materials and lessons must be tailored to the needs, ages and levels of the students, combining different kinds of knowledge, such as lexical, grammatical, pragmatic or cultural. Thus, language should be taught as part of a culture, providing suitable contexts for the students to acquire it and understand it better.

German and Italian teacher in South West and Central London with more than 20 years of teaching experience

Name of the teacher: Enrico

Born to teach I have been teaching German and Italian since 1989. I always feel myself very satisfied whilst teaching. I have a huge ammount of experience into teaching to young students as well as adults and they always achieved excellent results. A normal lesson always covers grammar, listening comprehension, reading comprehension, speaking and, last but not, least translating. Translating is a substantial part of my teaching method. When students translate they make mistakes and through them we study deeper the grammar and the language style.

First of all a natural inclination to teaching. Then, passion and satisfaction when students achieve their goals
