My lessons and method
My lessons aim to help students rapidly develop communicative competence, quickly understand usage contexts, and learn to use the language appropriately according to the audience and the circumstances. It is not only important but fun and interesting to engage students in various contexts with locals so they can use the language right away.
I work with small groups, so I can provide individual attention to each participant, including differentiated activities that give adequate space to grammar study as well as written and oral skills development.
For some lesson packages (intensive Learn&Tour), we also include various activities. Whether it’s a wine and cheese tasting, a visit to a special museum or an Infernot (a typical underground construction in Monferrato), a bike ride through the hills, or a Piedmontese cooking lesson (and we still have so many things to show you!), there will always be an opportunity to speak Italian with a real Italian! And what’s better than a stimulating activity in a fun environment to foster interest, curiosity, and thus motivation – at any age – to acquire the language?
Another important aspect is that your learning process will continue even after our lessons thanks to the additional benefits, such as:
- Free use of the my personalised app Quizlet where you will continue learning words and expressions and test yourself at your pace for 6 months after the end of our lessons.
- Free use of my Linguaviva personal platform where you will continue to have access to small novels, articles, generic texts adapted for your level with comprehension tests for 6 months after the end of our lessons.
