Italian for all levels (A1-C2) with a funny and expert teacher!

HI,
I'm Alessandro, I'm from Naples and I'm 30 years old. I love American literature specifically but I get easily curious when it comes to novelist and novelists of the 1900s. This is combined with the pleasure of searching the stalls for unknown and interesting titles. I'm part of a literary magazine and I write poems and short stories. Also, I like cooking, I practice Karate and I like camping in the mountains.
And, of course, I love teaching!

I taught English as a private tutor to Italian and foreign students. I have helped learners of different ages and with different goals (university exams, reinforcement of basic skills, questions) to become independent and creative in using the language.
I prepared two lessons in Portuguese on Neapolitan culture and language as part of a cycle of masterclasses on Elena Ferrante's tetralogy.

I interfaced with European and Brazilian clients to give some interpretations on some aspects that I considered crucial to my culture. In the second lesson, however, I provided some rudiments of phonetics and grammar, as well as a list of sayings and idiomatic phrases used, in large part, by the Neapolitans daily.

I believe that a lesson should focus on the learner's personal goals while organizing a spiral path that looks at grammar, vocabulary, and the use of the language in specific contexts and for daily tasks. We will help ourselves with multimedia elements such as articles, short videos, audio files, interviews, grammar, and conversation exercises.

I would be happy to know what are your goals, your learning strategies, and preferences regarding the course (e.g. duration) and to have a chat ;).

I'll send you a form to ask you something about your interests (e.g. what books you read/films you watch) and then we can organize a first introductory lesson.

About Me

I'm an easygoing teacher who loves to help you go down the rabbit hole dug by your curiosity. Nothing stimulates me more than a student who keeps asking questions, especially the ones pertaining to culture since Italian culture is way more dynamic and fragmented than one might expect!

The core of my classes is good, spontaneous conversation: this is the quickest way for me to assess your progress (or your starting point) and to give you feedback that actually helps you to develop your own mastery of Italian. Besides, we are going to talk about topics that interest you and I might even help you learn something more about what you love! Or maybe, you will teach me plenty of things about your favorite piece of news.

In time, our classes will feel closer to a night out with a friend, sipping coffee than a boring 60 minutes ordeal. My ideal student is someone in the range of 18 to 40 years old, but I'm happy to teach younger or older students! Children are the pinnacle of curiosity, and grandparents love me! (Btw, did you know that in Italian we say nonna for grandma and nonno for grandpa?)

See you soon!

Education

Master's Degree in Comparative Literatures and Languages of University "L'Orientale" of Naples. I studied English Linguistics, ranging from the basics and getting to an advanced level culminating in a dissertation about Stylistics, a branch of Linguistics that studies Literature but looks for "chunks" of style (A bit rushed but you get the point!) and analyzing how these chunks are repeated and what they might mean.
If it sounds a bit like maths, it's because it is like a distant cousin.

I also studied how to teach a foreign language (that's why I'm here!), Italian Linguistics and Literature, American Literature and History and Applied Translation.

One of the best experiences of my life was traveling to Portugal for my 5-month Erasmus. I got to meet some of the most amazing people in my life and to see a different part of Europe while learning a bit of Portuguese as well.

Experience / Qualifications

I have taught more than 500 classes of Italian to students coming from Brazil, the UK, the US, China and Ukraine. I have an MA Degree with a mark of 110/110 cum laude (the maximum here in Italy) and I am studying to get the CEDILS, a certificate to teach Italian in the public school or to privates, just like you!

Benoit
Private online mathematics lessons - Qualified and experienced teacher
I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years. The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies. I have a perfect knowledge of the mathematics program of the College and the High School (from the Sixth to the Terminale). During my formative years, I studied and developed many techniques that make it easier to learn math. The strength of my pedagogical approach lies in my ability to explain in a simple way everything that the student finds complicated. I am passionate about this job because it gives me the opportunity to guide dropout students on the path to success. It is a real pleasure to see them evolve and come to terms with the fantastic world of mathematics. I provide my private lessons in Limoges (at the student's home) or remotely (online via the internet). My distance learning courses take place on an interactive online whiteboard. This board is specially designed to promote student/teacher interaction on the internet. Thanks to this educational tool, my online courses are as effective as home courses. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to take advantage of it.
