 We worked on the imperative form and learned how to form positive and negative sentences. Every lesson with Isabella is excellent and we are constantly learning. Grazie, Isabella!

 We love reviewing past grammar lessons because it clarifies questions and uncertainty, and it helps to solidify concepts. There are so many different things to learn so this is very important and worthwhile. Grazie, Isabella!

 The last two lessons, we reviewed words related to items in the house and described their locations in relationship to each other. We really appreciated this review. It is so helpful to go back and review past lessons learned because it helps us to solidify our understanding and to correct any errors or to clarify any outstanding uncertainties. We look forward to doing this type of review on other subjects in the future. Grazie mille, Isabella!

 We are continuing to learn the different uses of the futuro semplice verb tense. We are mastering all but one. We are struggling with ipotesi but Isabella is very patient and continues to help us understand this use of futuro semplice. Grazie, Isabella!

 We continued to practice creating sentences utilizing futuro semplice verbs. The practice helps us to solidify what we are learning. We also really appreciate the speaking practice at the beginning of each lesson. Grazie, Isabella, for your excellent teaching!

About me - English

Dear friends and lovers of the Italian language,

I am Isabella and I am a qualified Italian language teacher with over 20 years of teaching experience. I live in the wonderful town of Tropea, in Calabria, in the heart of Southern Italy.

What does teaching mean to me?

Teaching means leading my students on their exciting journey to learn the Italian language.

As a tutor, my role is varied and multi-faceted.

I will accompany you when you feel confused and disoriented.

I will help you to pick youself up when you stumble upon a difficulty.

I will support you and boost your morale when your enthusiasm seems to wane.

I will suggest a shortcut when you feel tired and think you are unable to pursue your journey.

I will celebrate your success when, finally, you reach your long-awaited destination.

My task is to help you to discover the Italian language through an inductive method which considers the student an active participant in their own learning process: a student who is the protagonist and not a spectator.

Qualifications & Experience

After taking the diploma from the classical lyceum P. Galluppi in Tropea with full mark ( 100/100), I studied International Sciences at Bologna University and I graduated in 2005 with full mark ( 108/110). I have specialized in teaching Italian to foreigners at the Ca' Foscari Venice University (CEDILS). In addition, I am an examiner for the linguistic certification CELI issued by the University for foreigners of Perugia and I have obtained the Master in teaching the Italian language issued by ICOTEA, a private institution of training and education.

From 2005 to 2011 I worked for some different private schools where I taught the Italian language and culture.

Teaching Approach

The approach of teaching is communicative. The study of grammar is realized through an inductive method. For that, the student, with my support, is able to get to know the language and its rules. In every didactic unit the student can exercise and develop the language abilities: reading, listening, speaking and writing.The social aspect has a big relevance too: the students learns how to face the different situations of the daily life( at the restaurant, in the café, at the cinema etc...)

About me - Italian

Ciao amici e amanti della lingua italiana,

sono Isabella e sono un’insegnante qualificata di lingua italiana a stranieri con più di venti anni di esperienza. Vivo nella splendida città di Tropea, in Calabria, nel cuore del Sud Italia.

Cosa significa insegnare per me?

Insegnare significa guidare i miei studenti durante il loro meraviglioso percorso di apprendimento della lingua italiana.

In qualità di tutor, il mio ruolo è vario e complesso.

Vi accompagno quando vi sentite confusi e disorientati.

Vi aiuto a rialzarvi quando inciampate in una difficoltà.

Vi supporto e vi motivo quando l’entusiasmo sembra calare.

Vi suggerisco una scorciatoia quando vi sentite stanchi e temete di non riuscire a proseguire il viaggio.

Celebro il vostro successo quando, finalmente, raggiungete l’agognata meta.

Il mio compito è aiutarvi a scoprire la lingua italiana attraverso un metodo induttivo che vede lo studente attore attivo del suo apprendimento:uno studente protagonista e non spettatore.

Qualifications & Experience

Dopo aver conseguito il diploma di maturità classica con il massimo dei voti ( 100/100) presso il liceo classico P.Galluppi di Tropea, ho studiato Scienze Internazionali all'Università di Bologna ( sede Forlì) e mi sono laureata con la votazione di 108/110 nel 2005. Ho conseguito il certificato di didattica della lingua italiana CEDILS presso l'Università Ca' Foscari di Venezia. Sono esaminatrice per la certificazione linguistica CELI rilasciata dall'Università per Stranieri di Perugia.Ho conseguito anche il Master in didattica della lingua italiana L2 presso ICOTEA, un istituto di formazione privato. Dal 2005 al 2011 ho collaborato con scuole di lingua italiana dove ho insegnato la lingua e la cultura italiana a stranieri.

Teaching Approach

Il mio approccio di insegnamento è quello comunicativo. Lo studio della grammatica segue un percorso induttivo, di scoperta delle regole.In ogni unità didattica lo studente può esercitare le quattro abilità linguistiche di base: lettura, ascolto, scrittura e conversazione.Anche l'aspetto socio-pragmatico riveste grande importanza: lo studente impara a destreggiarsi nelle diverse situazioni della vita quotidiana ( al bar, al ristorante, al cinema ecc...).

About me - Spanish

Queridos amigos y amantes de la lengua italiana,

me llamo Isabella y soy profesora cualificada de la lengua italiana con más de veinte años de experiencia en este campo.

Yo vivo en la maravillosa ciudad de Tropea, en Calabria, situada en el sur de Italia.

¿Qué quiere decir enseñar para mí?

Enseñar significa guiar a mis estudiantes a lo largo de su ruta de aprendizaje.

Como tutora, mi función es muy variada y compleja.

Os acompañaré cuando os sintáis confusos y desorientados.

Os ayudaré a poneros de pie cuando tropecéis con una dificultad.

Os apoyaré y animaré cuando vuestro entusiasmo parezca disminuir.

Os enseñaré un atajo cuando os sintáis cansados y desanimados y penséis que no sois capaces de seguir con vuestro viaje.

Celebraré vuestro éxito cuando, por fin, lleguéis a vuestra meta final tan deseada.

Mi objetivo profesional es ayudaros a descubrir la lengua italiana por medio de un método didáctico inductivo que considera al estudiante como una parte activa de su proceso de aprendizaje: un estudiante protagonista y no simple espectador.

Qualifications & Experience

Después haber recibido el diploma de bachillerato con la máxima calificación ( 100/100) en el instituto " Liceo classico Pasquale Galluppi Tropea", yo estudié Ciencias Internacionales a la Universidad de Bologna y me licencié en 2005 con una muy buena calificación (108/110). Además yo tengo una epecialización en la enseñanza de la lengua italiana a los estudiantes extranjeros conseguida a la Universidad Ca' Foscari en Venezia y soy examinadora para el examen de certificación lingüística CELI, otorgada por la Universidad para extranjeros de Perugia. He obtenindo también el Master en la enseñanza de la lengua italiana a los extranjeros, otorgado por ICOTEA , un instituto de formación e instrucción privado.

Desde el año 2005 hasta el año 2011 yo enseñé la lengua y la cultura italiana para escuelas de idiomas.Yo enseñé también la lengua italiana para los negocios.

Teaching Approach

El método de enseñanza es comunicativo. El estudiante aprende la gramática sirviéndose de un método inductivo que le permite descubrir las reglas de funcionamiento de la lengua. Durante las clases, el estudiante puede practicar y desarrollar las cuatro competencias lingüísticas básicas: la escucha, la lectura, la escritura y la conversación.

El aspecto social- pragmático también tiene importancia: el estudiante aprende a manejarse en las diferentes situaciones de la vida cotidiana ( en el bar, en el restaurante, en la calle,en el cine etc...)
