I KNOW
YOU'RE BUSY
Your will is sometimes not enough: finding time to invest in studying a foreign language is not easy!
I realised this with many students: they were eager and willing to study Italian, but unfortunately their time was always limited, due to work, other personal commitments and also due to the time difference.
For this reason I decided to create ACCADEMIA, to let students study whenever they can, but following a structured method!
At a small price, I have prepared a structured course to accompany you on your journey, as if you were following private lessons with a native Italian teacher!
WHO'S SUSANNA ?
I studied Languages and Translations at the University of Padua and Udine, graduating with honors and I did studied in France, Great Britain, Spain and Russia.
I have learned and can speak English, French, Spanish and I have some knowledge of Russian and German.
These studies allowed me to be on the student’s side: I know what the difficulties of a foreign language can be, from every point of view.
I have been teaching Italian to foreign students for more than six years and in this period I was lucky enough to meet over one hundred students from all over the world, many of whom are still continuing their studies with the Arkos Academy.
Thanks to my linguistic knowledge, my students receive advice to improve their Italian by relating it to their mother tongue!
For them and thanks to them:
- I created all the material I use in my lessons from scratch, focusing on the most problematic issues for my students;
- I wrote all the exercises in my lecture notes, to help my students practice every single aspect of the Italian language;
- I recorded free podcasts to improve my students’ listening skills, even when they are not having lessons with me.
