Matteo Favaretto

Hi,

I have gained a degree in Classics and 2 PhDs in Renaissance Italian Literature, and I have taught Italian, Latin and ancient Greek to students of all levels for many years. I have a rich teaching background, having taught at esteemed institutions such as Royal Holloway, University of London, City Lit and Morley College.

With extensive experience in teaching these languages at various levels, I am committed to providing you with engaging, informative, and enjoyable lessons. My main objective is to help you learn and understand how these languages work in a friendly atmosphere.

Each lesson is carefully structured to balance theory with practical application. We will begin with a brief review of the previous session to ensure continuity and solidify your understanding. This will be followed by the introduction of new concepts, grammar rules, or vocabulary.

My teaching philosophy centers around creating an interactive and supportive learning environment. I encourage active participation, discussions, and questions to ensure that you are not just passive learners but active participants in your language journey. I use a variety of teaching aids, including multimedia resources, authentic texts, and practical exercises, to make the learning experience rich and diverse.

Understanding that each student has unique needs and goals, I offer personalized guidance and flexible lesson plans. Whether you are learning for personal enrichment, academic purposes, or professional development, I will tailor my approach to help you achieve your objectives.

Join me on this linguistic adventure, and together we will explore the beauty of Italian, Latin, and Ancient Greek. I look forward to helping you unlock new language skills and cultural insights.
