About Filomena
I have a Ph.D. in Italian Studies from the University of Toronto, and I have taught Italian for nearly 20 years to adults of all backgrounds at colleges, universities, and private schools. I love working with learners of all backgrounds and encourage all types of learners to get in touch with me. :-) In all, I've been an educator for nearly 25 years.

My lessons are learner-led and in partnership with students, which means that students drive the choices behind my lessons. Learners tell me about their goals, and I organize lesson content and activities around those goals and my observations. Learning, therefore, is relevant.
Because grammar and sentence structure are essential components of language, I always make room for this foundation as well, especially if I observe challenges in the student. I have a strong background in grammar, and clear demonstrations for learning grammar.
As much as possible, I choose activities that are lively, relevant, and communicative. This builds confidence in speaking another language and comfort with hearing yourself speak another language and making and overcoming mistakes.
*For learners who would simply like conversational Italian learning opportunities, I'd be happy to be a speaking partner who provides suggestions and corrections in all areas (grammar, pronunciation, comprehension).

Filomena is an excellent teacher. As a complete beginner learning Italian, I felt comfortable in making mistakes and applying the concepts. She is very organized and provides detailed curriculum. Filomena is always flexible with the lessons and able to tailor it to your specific learning needs. I would highly recommend Filomena! Grazie mille Filomena! Ciao
Filomena is a fantastic Italian tutor. She has tailored lessons based on my stated learning goals and abilities and is extremely knowledgable. She very effectively uses different learning tools and our lessons are always thoroughly planned. When I have questions she explains concepts in very simple terms and my understanding of the Italian language has greatly benefitted as a result. She is overall a very kind and patient teacher and I highly recommend her for your italian lessons!
She was my Italian language tutor last spring and summer. To say she was fabulous would be an understatement. She made learning a language a total pleasure. She was very dynamic, fluid and creative in her approach to teaching. Her highly organized and personable style made the classes flow easily and be highly productive. I would highly recommend her to anyone up for learning a language.
I have been taking private Italian lessons from Filomena for a few months. Filomena provides lessons that are tailored to my needs and what I want to accomplish. She is well prepared for each lesson but is also willing to adapt the lesson if there is something specific I want to discuss or learn. She keeps me on track with my learning while also ensuring that the lessons are fun. With her help, I can tell that my Italian is improving. The lessons are time and money well spent.
