About
Ciao, my name is Simona and I am the director and headteacher of the Italian School of Dallas.
I was born and raised in Italy, and I have been teaching Italian since 1996. Through my extensive experience as a foreign language teacher and also as student, I myself know that finding the right teacher and the right program are crucial to making the whole experience fun and gratifying. Together with commitment and consistency I watched my students progress and excel while learning through enjoyable and interactive activities, games, and exercises.
Why Study with us?
Studying at the Italian School of Dallas you will gain much more than a second language!
Our teachers' knowledge of the Italian language is accompanied by solid expertise and a positive can-do attitude. All of our teachers have years of experience in the classroom, teaching all ages and types of students with very different learning skills, needs and motivations. They are very patient, empathetic, love interacting with people, and know how to keep their students motivated and appropriately challenged.
We know that creating an environment that is relaxing, intimate and conducive to learning is very important; therefore, we always strive to provide our students with a place where they feel at ease and are in no way judged for their errors. Sharing a relationship of mutual trust and respect with the teacher and being unafraid to improve oneself is fundamental to the students’ learning process.
This creates a bond and sense of camaraderie that is shared among the students and the teacher, and will make learning language an enjoyable and pleasant experience.
So, if you have been thinking about learning Italian for a while, come and meet your new Italian family! We are waiting for you!
