Andrea

I’ve tried multiple teachers on italki & Andrea is by far the best. He speaks flawless English, making it easy to explain Italian. He’s always encouraging and a lovely person overall which makes you look forward to conversing with him. He goes above and beyond, highly highly recommend.

I have had many lessons with Andrea now and every single one has been amazing. I really enjoy learning Italian with Andrea, especially because I can see that he wants me to improve and this motivates me to learn more. On many occasions, I have messaged Andrea with some queries that I had and he responded quickly to help me. Andrea has also supplied me with materials to work on in between lessons which for me has been a good experience because Andrea knows the level I should be working towards. Overall, I have had around 10 lessons with Andrea and I don’t have any problems at all, I love every lesson and he is a fantastic teacher and has made me feel comfortable speaking in Italian.

I have had weekly lessons with Andrea for a couple of months now, and my only “complaint” is that the time passes too quickly! Andrea is a master conversationalist and knows how to unpack a little piece of new information into an interesting conversation, steering it from topic to topic. He is very patient and has a very gentle and sincere attitude that puts the student instantly at ease. Andrea is a very curious and open-minded person and is genuinely interested in the topics we are discussing, it never feels like we do it for the sole purpose of “practicing the language”. He does help me to find the right word or a better way of saying something, gives corrections when necessary but it really feels like I am talking to a friend. Especially if you are at a level where you can converse, Andrea’s lessons would be a great addition to your language practice.

Andrea is a wonderful teacher. He explains everything and makes you look forward to your next lesson.

As usual another great lesson. Andrea is very understanding and patient in trying to teach me. I look forward to all my lessons.

I have completed 20+ lessons with Andrea. We have covered a variety of topics, both every day conversations (like making reservations, complaints) and more demanding subjects (education, culture etc.). The lessons have always been fun as Andrea is a very patient, attentive and supportive teacher. Whatever my question was, I got an immediate and competent answer from a native speaker who is absolutely familar with the cultural intricacies of his country. I would also like to mention, that it has been helpful to switch to English whenever I could not manage in Italian. I therefore would highly recommend Andrea for practicing conversation at all levels. Thank you, Andrea, so far.
