A great start! Flexible, prepared to let me decide what I need to learn.
About me - English
I am a fun and communicative teacher, I have had experience with all kinds of students, children and adults. I am bilingual English and Italian and have lived seven (7) years in Australia, where I live with my family.
Qualifications & Experience
Certificate Four in TESOL - from the University of New South Wales - for teaching English
+ three (3) months of experience in English language schools for foreign students in Sydney
Italian - I have done all my school and some university studies in Italy and have five (5) years of experience teaching private students, small groups and in language schools.
Teaching Approach
Lesson on Verbal Planet will be conversation-based. For absolute beginners in Italian some instruction will be given in English. For English students, a minimal ability to understand English is required for us to start speaking.
If desired, I can assign homework (interactive verification exercise) between lessons.
Le lezioni che propongo su Verbal Planet sono basate sul metodo comunicativo - sono intese per un miglioramento dell'espessione orale.
Avendo avuto un'esperienza di insegnamento molto varia alle spalle, sono capace di venire incontro alle esigenze di studenti molto diversi tra di loro - bambini ed adulti.
Qualifications & Experience
Ho terminato le scuole superiori e la Laurea in Lettere indirizzo moderno in Italia. In Australia ho cominciato ad insegnare l'Italiano privatamente 5 anni fa.
Ho insegnato l'Italiano nelle seguenti scuole: La Lingua (Sydney centro), Istituto Italiano di Cultura di Sydney Italian Graffiti Language School (Mosman).
Teaching Approach
Il mio metodo di insegnamento ed il formato delle lezioni varia a seconda dello studente e/o della scuola dove insegno.
Per lezioni per principianti, piu' materiale scritto e grammatica verra' proposto, mentre per gli studenti di livello piu' avanzato, la lezione sara' impostata principalmente sulla discussione orale attorno a temi prescelti.

Ma methode est principalement le dialogue, le plus naturel possible, par webcam. Si votre niveau est tres basilaire, je pourrais inclure de la grammaire et la conversation pourrait inclure du francais, pour vous expliquer la grammaire.
