Over mij
italki leerkracht sinds 8 Nov 2019
My name is Francesca and I am a certified Italian teacher. I started teaching in Italy in 2012 and I continued in several countries in the world including Canada, where I taught from 2016 to 2019 at the Italian Cultural Center of Vancouver. I hold a degree in archaeology, and I have also a DITALS qualification, which means that I have been accredited by University of Siena to teach Italian as a second language. I'm currently living in Melbourne and I hope to have the opportunity to work as a teacher also in this incredible city.
Ik als leerkracht
My teaching style is based on communication. We discuss together goals, frequency, duration and contents. I shape my lessons to the level and the requirements of each person, in order to make the learning process quick, deep and, at the same time, interesting and fun.
I love talking about different topics and sharing opinions. I always try to create a relax atmosphere in which you can feel comfortable.
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
I usually develop customized courses based on needs and interests. Therefore, the courses can be very different, more focused on grammar or conversation. In general, I diversify the teaching techniques as much as possible and propose activities and games in the perspective of doing and playing learning, which I consider very valid teaching methods

Francesca is a wonderful teacher. She is engaging - I am never bored, even after approx 8 months of studying with her twice a week. She is a true professional, always putting my needs first, asking what works for me and adjusting as needed. She was a great energy and is overall really lovely. And is simply great at teaching!!

I have been taking lessons with Francesca since February, and she is a fantastic teacher. She is very patient during the lessons, and every lesson is well organized which is great when I want to review what was covered in a previous lesson. Additionally, Francesca consistently ensures that I am understanding all of the material, and she does not hesitate to answer any questions that I may have. Furthermore, in the past I have used duolingo, rocket languages, and rosetta stone in an attempt to learn Italian. All of those are fine if you want to learn some basic vocabulary, but if you truly want to learn how to speak Italian fluently then I can not recommend Francesca enough. My Italian has improved greatly since February, as I now understand a lot of the Italian grammar and I have memorized countless words. None of this would have been possible self studying on my own, it is all due to taking structured lessons with Francesca. Grazie mille Francesca e buon Natale!

Francesca is an excellent teacher. She is always well prepared with interesting material that is suitable for my level. She is also 'molto simpatica'
