Ciao!
My name is Francesca and I'm from Vicenza, Italy. At the moment I live in Calgary, Canada where I am pursuing a PhD in Languages and Cultures.
I hold a Bachelor Degree in Italian Literature from the University of Verona, and a Master's in Romance Philology from the University of Trento. I am passionate about literature, history, linguistics, films and music. I love being in touch with people from different countries and that's why I love learning about new cultures and languages.Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Italian for almost 4 years. I like creating a nice, supportive and friendly learning environment where students can feel at ease and without the fear of making mistakes.
As a language learner as well - I am currently learning Spanish and German - I understand the challenges coming with that.My lessons & teaching style
In my classes, I incorporate a variety of activities to help you develop all four language skills: speaking, listening, writing, and reading. I believe it’s essential to start with key common phrases and a solid grammar foundation to support your language growth. From there, we’ll apply what you’ve learned through conversation, focusing on topics that interest you the most.My teaching material
