About Me
italki teacher since Apr 27, 2021
My name is Antonio Libertino and I was born and raised in Tropea, a beautiful seaside town in southern Italy. I currently live a few kilometers away from my hometown, between Tropea and another beautiful seaside place called Capo Vaticano. I speak English, a bit of German and Italian is my mother tongue... next to the Tropean dialect. I normally speak Italian with a standard accent, although sometimes my Calabrian speech comes out, but in any case I will teach you standard Italian. I like reading, listening, a little bit of everything, watching good movies ... and learning a lot of things.
Me as a Teacher
I have been teaching Italian to foreigners for many years now, both face to face and online. I obtained the second level of the DITALS, which is the certificate of competence in teaching Italian to foreigners issued by the University for Foreigners of Siena and I have been teaching since 2003. Initially in a private school, then on my own, and I worked with all levels , from the absolute beginner, who are people starting from scratch, to those who have a very high level and simply want to improve their communication skills. I was a speaker at two Polyglot Gatherings and presented some unconventional ideas about learning.
My lessons & teaching style
I will adapt to your needs and goals. Do you like visual content? I'll give you lots of visual content to watch. Do you like to listen? I'll give you a lot to listen to. Do you like to move? I'll make you move. Do you like stories? Then I'll tell you so many! Do you like to relax and feel good while learning, then you could just relax and enjoy the journey, because, one step at a time, you will be able to reach your communication goals.
