点评:My husband and I spent a pleasurable and profitable two weeks at Madrelingua School. We were in different levels so had a chance between us to experience all members of the faculty. The three main teachers were all highly skilled (as a retired professor, I appreciated their ability to have planned lessons yet be very flexible when the class seemed to head off into another direction, teaching the topic at issue with ease) and their constant and intense observation of students' comprehension and level of mastery of the element studied. They were also very patient and encouraging with students. The three principal teachers had different personalities, and the school had an excellent structure, with each four-hour daily session divided between two instructors at two hours each. This not only gave a contrast in teaching styles, but in listening to accents and way of speaking. In both of our classes, the emphasis was on communication, more speaking and oral comprehension than reading or writing, though they were not entirely ignored. Stefania, the director of the school with whom students had the most contact, was very friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere in the school was very positive. Most afternoons there was an optional outing of some sort in the city or near environs which provided additional opportunities to interact with the faculty and use the language with gentle corrections as needed. I highly recommend this program to those who wish to improve their skills in the Italian language.
翻译:我和我丈夫在 Madrelingua 学校度过了愉快而有益的两周。我们处于不同的水平,所以我们有机会体验所有教师的成员。三位主要老师都技术精湛(作为一名退休教授,我很欣赏他们有能力计划课程,但当课程似乎转向另一个方向时又非常灵活,轻松地教授有问题的主题),并且他们持续而紧张观察学生对所学元素的理解和掌握程度。他们对学生也非常耐心和鼓励。三位校长性格各异,学校的结构也很好,每天四小时的课程由两名导师各两小时进行。这不仅在教学风格上产生了对比,而且在听口音和说话方式上也产生了对比。在我们的两堂课中,重点都是沟通,更多的是口语和口语理解,而不是阅读或写作,尽管它们并没有完全被忽视。与学生接触最多的学校校长Stefania非常友好热情,学校的氛围非常积极。大多数下午,都会有一次可选的城市或周边地区郊游活动,这提供了与教师互动的额外机会,并根据需要使用语言并进行温和的纠正。我强烈向那些希望提高意大利语技能的人推荐这个项目。
