My objective is to make a positive difference in the lives of my students. I think I manage to do that more often than not. My approach to tutoring is simple: I try to understand how a student is thinking. This can be done by sharing how I am thinking and invite the student to do the same. This is a collaborative process built on mutual trust. I started tutoring in 2004, working with high school and middle school students who needed academic support in math. The objective was to improv... Read more

Sometimes learning in a traditional setting is problematic for some students. The subject matter can seem boring or appear to have no relevance with the student's life experience. At other times, the method of teaching is at odds with how a particular student learns. I'm familiar with both issues: One to one tutoring offers a host of great ways to ground the material in everyday life.....maybe not what the student is experiencing that very day, but close enough so that a seed is planted.....

I was born and raised in Bologna, Italy, where I completed my Italian literature studies at the University of Bologna. I lived in Rome for 10 years, and started teaching Italian as a second language to the children of immigrants. After moving to the USA, I began tutoring Italian because of my passion for teaching and in particular for Italian language and culture. Many people around the world have good reasons for learning the Italian language, and many of them are Italian descendants. ... Read more
