Experience
Over the past 12 years I have had extensive experience working with children, students and adults From May 2002 to March 2004 I worked with children having social problems and capacity to adapt to the school system. They were gypsies not used to a "normal school life" so I worked with them at the school and at their home. From October 2004 until now, I have taught students and adults to learn Spanish at Interlingua, school in Vicenza.When I first started to work with the students, they spoke no Spanish at all. By the end of our time together, their language skills had grown substantially. From 2006 until now I have taught at the "Scuola Superiore Mediatori Linguistici" in Vicenza teaching spanish language. Since 2006 I have taught Spanish language at Inlingua, teaching Spanish language at all levels and preparing students for DELE exams of Instituto Cervantes at all levels and for the internal exams for the University of Verona and Padua. I am DELE exams certifier in all its levels. Since 2012 I've been teaching spanish literature and culture at "Scuola Superiore Mediatori Linguistic" in Padua. At the same school I have prepared the University of Padua students going to Spain for Erasmus programe. I have gained extensive knowledge in the way of teaching a foreign language through college and courses, past internships and numerous volunteer opportunities. These experiences gave me the chance to work with various multicultural populations. I have also tutored students who want to study at the University in Spain about the Spanish university system, the opportunities they have to study in Spain and the way to do it. Throughout the year I have learnt how to adapt my knowledge of teaching Spanish to the students needs. My teaching style is tailored towards the individuals learning style and capabilities.
