Hello everyone, my name is Rossella, I'm Italian but I lived in Ireland from 2012 to 2022. After many years abroad, I am back in Italy!
About me there isn't too much to say: I like reading, I am a TV series addicted (mostly American and British altough there are a few Italian TV series that are really worth watching). In my free time I like to do "relaxing things" like jigsaw puzzles, "silly things" like friendship bracelets, or even "vintage things" like cross-stitching!
I have a partner, we live together and we had two cats, Mikey and Melody, that we loved very much and if you want, I'll tell you all about them (in Italian of course)! :D

Me as a Teacher
Hello everyone, my name is Rossella, I'm Italian, I've been an Italki tutor for a few years and I absolutely love it!
I am really happy to help people from all over the world, improve or learn Italian. I love to share everything I know about my country (the good and the bad! :D) and I like that so many students want to learn Italian, not just because they have to but because they want to and they like Italian culture.
If you have questions you can write me a message via Italki and I'll reply asap! :)
My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are organised so that we can do a bit of everything (grammar, reading, conversation) and I try to make it not boring (who said that learning can't be fun?). My course is organised in 4 levels with 20 lessons each, starting from easy topics to more complicated ones. However you don't have to follow the course if you're not interested, I tailor the lesson to fit the student's needs so, for instance, we can do only conversation if you'd like. :)
I can go from free conversation to focused conversation all the way to grammar. I love to chat (especially about food! :D) but I also absolutely love explaining grammar and can help you navigate the stormy sea of the Italian one! :)

Thank you Rossella! I gain such confidence after each lesson together. I appreciate how supportive and flexible you are with those teachable moments that pop up. I enjoy that we talk and laugh together all in Italian!

Rossella is the best - no need to look further. Great teacher who truly cares. Classes are fun and my Italian has improved tons.

As always, Rossella is supportive, patient, and knowledgeable! I learn so much during our conversations about the Italian language - far more than if we just stuck with the lesson plan. :) She knows a great deal about the language, and this helps me understand the cultural context of what we're discussing. Grazie, Rossella! :)
