Ciao! :)
I'm Elisa, a native Italian speaker from Northern Italy.
After attending secondary school (where I studied Latin and Ancient Greek, the languages from which Italian descends) I took a gap year and worked as an Au Pair in Nottingham, UK. It was a great experience! After coming back to Italy, I studied and got a Master's Degree in Psychology and Neuroscience.
I love traveling and discovering new cultures. We can learn and broaden our perspectives also behind a screen (grazie tecnologia!), which is why I love listening to your stories and experiences. I also like sports, books and music. Finally, I am interested in Japanese language and culture.

Me as a Teacher
I have been tutoring for around 10 years, and I have a lot of experience especially with elementary school and junior high school kids with special educational needs. I have volunteered as an English teacher for underprivileged children in Cambodia, at a local school in Thailand, and at a rehabilitation center in Laos. I also volunteer online in a program aimed at helping young Ukrainians improve their English.
I am easy-going, patient, and encouraging. I will do my best to personalize your class to match your style and help you reach your goal, making the lesson useful, engaging, and fun.
My lessons & teaching style
I offer classes for everyone, from beginner to advanced. If you are a beginner, we can use a textbook to start your Italian language learning. If your level is intermediate or advanced, we can discuss any topic of your interest and/or address more challenging aspects of the language with personalized activities.
I can help you gain familiarity with Italian language, expand your vocabulary, and practice grammar rules in a relaxed and fun atmosphere! :)
I will provide:
- feedback and correction on grammar, pronunciation, vocabulary,
- personalized homework,
- slides or tables.
A presto!

The Real Deal.
Elisa is a rare and wonderful language teacher. Not only is her methodology unique but it’s effective as well. She is flexible and will adapt to how you like to learn. Furthermore, she is so kind that you will find yourself comfortably speaking more Italian in each lesson with confidence. Oh and on top of all that: her English is perfect. A gem!

I've been using iTalki for quite a while and it's rare that you find a teacher like Elisa. Not only is she is kind, patient, and easy to talk to, she's the first teacher to ever ask me how I prefer feedback. Such a simple gesture speaks volumes about her approach. She was invaluable in helping me prepare for a trip to Italy. I wouldn't hesitate to recommend her to anyone, especially those who wish to improve their conversational skills.

Elisa - is an amazing teacher. She has a gentle, patient kind demeanour that creates a calm atmosphere that puts her students at ease so that they can gain confidence in their abilities that they already have but don't know yet! She teases the skills out with her patient approach. I HIGHLY recommend Elisa for anyone who is nervous about speaking Italian. She is also really fun, very smart and super interesting.

I enjoyed my lesson with Elisa. She is very patient and very flexible with the structure of the lesson and really listens to work out what you require. I’m very much looking forward to my next lesson.
