My lessons are fun and inspirational. We will work together through difficult topics. For beginners I tedn to use a global method of learning as i saw from my apst experience that this was the easiest way. For my students who are more experienced with the language i tend to help them with their lacks of knowledge before completing their global knowledge of the language. I have previously taught italian to beginners and advanced teenagers, and I very much loved the dynamics. As in any subject there are tests and homework to expect, however i will try to make the learning as light and excitable as possible. I tend to divide the language in 2 sections as we do in italian schools: grammatics and anthology. In grammatics we will start with simole topics like the types of syllables, the "analisi logica" and "analisi grammaticale" for a deeper understanding of the language. In anthology we will take this knowledge, perfected in grammatics, one step further. We will learn reading and do comprehension of given texts by italian writers. We will also explore poetry writing and prosa text writing with its main topics like punctuation, to the point in which the student . We will of course learn pronunciation and speaking the language alongside all these skills. It seems like a lot at first sight, but it will be really fun and engaging. As previously mentioned, tests and independent homework are required but not in a strict way, just to test the skills .
