Hi from Naples

[fabriziofiorenzano]

Caro Peter,

so che Ravello é un luogo splendido e romatico. Sul mio sito ci sono molte foto su Ravello e anche a me piace molto ritornarci.
Villa Rufolo e Villa Cimbrone sono suggestive.
Parli un ottimo italiano!

La nostra vacanza quell'anno era il migliore delle sette che abbiamo fatto in Italia. Io e Maggie, mia moglie, abbiamo amato moltissimi Ravello e i suoi giardini.

Mi piaciono molte canzoni napolitani; c'è un tristezza certa alle molte delle canzoni che mi piace, ma non posso spiegare perché. Forse mi piacciono semplicemente le canzoni tristi!

Frequento alcuni corsi della lingua italiana e l'insegnante è una napolitana e lei ha un gran amore per la sua città. Lei fa le lezioni molto divertente.

A presto

Peter

Caro Fabrizio

Grazie per la tua risposta e per i tuoi complimenti. Ho frequentato il tuo website e mi piacciono le foto, particolamente quelle di Ravello. Sfortunamente non potrei vedere le foto della Villa Cimbrone (Page Not Found - Pagina non trovata?). Ho molte foto dei giardini della Villa Rufolo, le fotografie che mi piacciono ma che non sono come belle come le tue!

A presto

Peter

PS Il tuo inglese è molto buono. Complimenti.

Same here Fabrizio, I have had a look at your websites. I like the pictures on 'napolinapoli', some of which really capture the essence of Napoli and the region itself. The internet car was typical and amusing!

I also came across some pictures of Procida where my uncle lives and I normally stay for part of my time when in Italy.

The only problem is, look ing at the pictures has made me yearn to return again!

Greetings, friends...

My name is David, someone I've met recently has recommended I try teaching English in Napoli. After having done lots of research on your beautiful city....I am highly convinced that Napoli is the place for me.

I'm from Chicago, although I have been living in Mexico for the past 5 years teaching English at a university. Recently I've hit a wall of sorts and cannot proceed creatively....I feel that Europe is my next step to grow creatively and personally.

This past year I have became really good friends with this French couple that also taught here at the university where I work. They convinced me that I should go teach at the city where they are from...Marseilles, France. Then, I met the brother in-law of Joanna, one of the French teachers who happens to be from Napoli. He is really cool. He told me that I should think about Napoli instead for the richness of the city and the warm and friendly people.

I'd like to hear from the people there if possible. Can you please recommend a language school, or university where I can send my resume? I am seriously leaning towards Napoli instead of Marseilles.

I thank you all so much.
David

Hi David

There are lots of language schools in the area surrounding Naples, especially in Salerno and Sorrento (Google for them all) but this one is actually in the centre of Naples and has good write ups.

I taught English in Naples, in state schools, privately and at the university. Firstly, you must remember that all the good jobs are not won by open selection. I started with St Peters on the Chiaia, and worked up from there. However, you wont be able to teach in Naples schools if you dont have a CELTA or equivalent qualification as all the European courses require this in order to gain funding. The same is true of the PONs run at the university. If you dont have the CELTA you will be earning much less. If you're going to teach in state schools you will need a thick skin and good sense of authority! Having said that, I love Naples and miss it, but it is not the easiest city to live in, especially if you dont look Neapolitan. If you need more info PM me.

Sorry - so he did! I obviously didn't read the post properly - I had other things on my mind yesterday. Apologies.
