Ciao! I am a native Italian language teacher with 10 years' experience of teaching students the beauty of my Italian language and culture. I really enjoy introducing students to the language and helping them to develop their skills and pleasure in speaking Italian and learning about Italy. I work hard to adapt my teaching methods to suit individual needs, from beginners to advanced learners, ensuring steady progress and confidence in communication.
Extra information
I am an Italian with dual Italian/British nationality. I was born and brought up near Florence in Italy but have lived in England for the last twenty years. I spend at least two months every year with my family in Italy.
I have a good range of experience teaching Italian and have worked for a number of years in different types of language schools and other educational organisations. I taught Italian for 5 years to adult learners at evening classes at our local academy school which for me (and I like to think for them too!) was a highly enjoyable and enriching experience. I have always been able to create a strong and friendly rapport with my students.
I hold degrees from Florence University (BSc) and University College London (MSc) and have a certificate from Siena University for teaching Italian to foreigners.

About Me
I am a native Italian with 10 years' experience in teaching the language to adults and young learners. I was brought up near Florence in Italy and I have lived in England since 2004. I love my country and of course Italian is a beautiful language which is a pleasure to teach to new learners.
In my lessons the needs and interests of the students come first so I try to tailor the sessions accordingly. I believe that learning a new language should be an exciting and enjoyable experience for everyone!
