My name is Fabiana Papaleoni and I am an Italian and Latin languages teacher and tutor.I grew up in in Italy where I graduated in Italian Language and Literature at the Universita’ di Lettere e Filosofia in Parma. Simultaneously, I pursued violin performance and music studies at the Conservatorio di Musica “Arrigo Boito” in Parma.I work as Adjunct Lecturer at the University of New Haven CT and I am currently an Italian Teacher at the AUX 3 POMMES, LLC Foreign Language School in Guilford and I work as Per Diem Substitute Teacher at the Guilford Public Schools. I offer Italian language courses, private lessons, book clubs and seminars about Italian Art, Music and Literature. I also offer private assistance to costumers in organizing trips to Italy. I design and develop each student’s program based on their goals, level, and interests, with the help of a variety of materials. I personally create presentations and handouts, and I get support from printed books as well as online digital resources after I assess their value for the course. The use of technology is an essential tool in teaching a foreign language, and I rely on websites that offer a vast range of language exercises and games, videos, podcasts, audiobooks, and music, often easy and free to use, that can help efficiently with the progress of the learning, meet the student’s interests, and provide some entertainment. I offer my lessons in person as well as online, being aware of the invaluable advantages of distance learning.

Grazie davvero Joana, it was great to meet you and to learn some Italian together! You guys have been all amazing, well done! Grazie ancora e tanti auguri per tutto, a presto!
The instructor was knowledgeable yet did not go to fast being that we are beginners. Learned not only common phrases but also about the Italian culture. Always willing to go over anything we did not understand. All in all a very pleasant class.
