Certified Native Italian Tutor from Rome — Intensive 1-on-1 Coaching for Adults
From 29 C$ /h
Ciao! I’m Andrea, a native, DITALS-certified Italian tutor, published author, and literary translator born and based in Rome. With 10+ years of experience—and having authored two published study guides for the DITALS and DILS-PG certification exams—I help adult learners (18+) speak real, fluent Italian from day one.
MY INTENSIVE 1-ON-1 METHOD:
Forget passive textbooks and repetitive grammar charts. You acquired your first language by listening, speaking, and interacting—not by memorizing rules. My sessions replicate that natural process, tailored entirely to your interests:
• Dynamic Q&A Drills: Stop translating in your head and develop immediate conversational reflexes.
• Active Listening & Repetition: Absorb authentic Italian melody, rhythm, and natural Roman/standard cadence.
• Real-Time Feedback: Immediate, supportive adjustments on pronunciation, vocabulary, and grammar while you speak.
• 100% Personalized Content: Every session is shaped around you.
Whether you are starting from scratch or refining near-native fluency, you will speak authentic Italian from the very first minute.

About Me
Ciao! I’m Andrea, a native Italian tutor, published author, and literary translator born and based in Rome.
For over 10 years, I have worked with international adult learners (18+) from all over the world, helping them speak authentic, natural Italian from the very first minute. I love teaching motivated, curious adults.
As a teacher, I am energetic, patient, and completely focused on practical communication. Rather than burying you in passive textbooks and repetitive grammar charts, I replicate the natural way you acquired your first language: through dynamic Q&A drills, active listening, and real-time feedback tailored entirely to your interests.
Alongside teaching, I write novels, poetry, and biographies, and I translate major English-speaking authors (such as James Joyce and Dylan Thomas) into Italian. This daily immersion in both literary precision and living spoken Italian allows me to guide you straight into the real heart of the language.
