Su di me

MAKE SURE TO BOOK YOUR WEEK LESSONS IN ADVANCE TO FIND AVAILABLE TIME SLOTS!
[IF YOU WANT TO SCHEDULE A LESSON FOR A DATE/TIME I AM NOT AVAILABLE, PLEASE CONTACT ME!]

Hi everyone! My name is Simona and I am a certified Italian language teacher.
I have been working as a teacher of Italian as a Foreign Language since 2014, I have taught all levels from complete beginners to advanced piano students. I am from Italy, but have lived abroad in England and Spain and taught Italian in both Italy and Spain.

I am a really enthusiastic, focused teacher. I have a positive and creative approach to teaching and set high expectations, which inspire, motivate and challenge students. I endeavour not to bore my students and I regularly vary interaction patterns in my lessons in order to vary the pace. In my 2 years of teaching in two different countries, I have worked with students of all ages, from young children to seniors and racially and ethnically diverse students. I also work as a translator, proofreader and linguist. I teach English in Italy in both public school classrooms and private language schools. I have worked as a teacher of English as a foreign language at the Cambridge Academy in Naples and as a teacher of Italian as a second language at the US Navy in Naples.

I am always engaged in continuous learning in order to broaden my knowledge and experience and always interested in innovative teaching methods. Beyond working directly with students, I also enjoy developing new course materials, using authentic materials and creating activities.

Furthermore, I consider creativity an important aspect of writing and speaking. I encourage my students to use language creatively to express themselves. Indeed, I am very fond of free practice activities.

Cancellations and No-Shows policy:
I require at least 24 hours notice to reschedule, as it is not possible to reassign those time slots to other students. So please pay attention to the calendar and cancel the lesson if you can't attend. After that time, lessons will be considered as completed. If the student doesn't shows up after 15 minutes after the fixed time without any notice, the lesson will be considered as completed.
