The format I use is the same as the TEFL format. Presentation, target language, drills on pronunciation, communication, where you practice what you have learned with speaking. I teach English to Italian people with this method and it can be applied to all the languages. Italian of course has a more complex grammar, but we can build lessons around tricky grammar structures. For children of course, the lesson will be developed around games and songs. We will learn Italian rhymes and play games, while learning. For both approach we will try and reproduce the way a baby learns to speak, with constant exposure to the language in an all- Italian language environment. If you already know how to speak the language and you need to study only sectoral words, then we will read articles and listen to podcasts or videos concerning the sector; with my support you will understand and remember more vividly what you study.
I am looking forward to meeting you all and to help you through this wonderful journey. It is a great satisfaction when you see your students improve and learn what you taught them.
