☀️ Hi everyone, I'm Antonio and I'm 30 years old.
I'm a native Italian and Sicilian speaker and I've been passionate about languages since childhood. I speak English 🇺🇸, Spanish 🇦🇷, French🇫🇷, and some Portuguese 🇧🇷.
💉 I'm a medical student and lived for a while in the UK and Germany. I've got a lot of hobbies such as practicing MMA and BJJ, reading, traveling, listening to music, and playing chess. I'm sure we'll find something to talk about!
🌍 I'm very open-minded, I love traveling, and experiencing different cultures and lifestyles. What's your next trip?

Me as a Teacher
📚 I'm a professional but also a very relaxed teacher. Learning a language shouldn't feel like something hard to achieve, it should feel natural, easy, and fun. I can guarantee that during my lessons you will feel happy and relaxed!
🔬 During my career I've been teaching other subjects like biology, chemistry, maths, and physics. Therefore I could teach you some technical terms as well.
🥇 Specialized in conversational lessons, medical Italian, and students who want to take their Italian to the next level.
My lessons & teaching style
🤓 During my lessons I will use different methods according to the students' needs and expectations. There's not a universal way that works for everybody so we will find together what's best for you.
🗣️ I want you to learn Italian and Sicilian in the most natural way possible, therefore conversation, pronunciation, and listening are the most important things to me. Grammar is the foundation, but then we need to move on and start to practice the "real" Italian so that you would be able to hold a conversation if you ever come to visit Italy.

I have been doing weekly conversation lessons with Antonio for about a year to try to revive Italian that I learned many years ago in college. Antonio pushes you to try to speak to your best capability while also being patient and understanding when it takes a little while to spit out something that's not quite entirely correct. He also speaks perfect english, so I feel like we can really get to the true meaning of what I want to express instead of needing to simplify or generalize my thought in order to communicate (very helpful). I've learned and re-learned so much from him over the past year and have gained so much confidence in speaking Italian with others that I do it daily--something I would not have imagined possible even just a year ago.

It was clear to me from the first lesson that Antonio has a natural talent for teaching! He effortlessly challenges his students while maintaining a fun and stress-free environment. It is clear that he cares for his students and wants to aid in the learning process in any way he can. He provides great explanations, examples, and documents to help with grammar & vocab. His lessons are well-rounded and I end each lesson with new and relevant skills. He gives in-depth answers to any questions and makes sure that I understand concepts before moving on. He pushes me out of my comfort zone to make sure that I maximize my learning during our lessons. He is a very patient & understanding person and I have learned so much already from his lessons! He's truly a fantastic teacher!!

Antonio is amazing! I’ve been taking lessons with him for a month now and he’s hands down the best teacher I’ve found on this site. He’s a natural-born educator: always going above and beyond for his students, sending detailed notes after the lessons and responding promptly to any questions you have about grammar, culture, etc. Thanks to his encouragement and patience, my level of Italian has improved tremendously and my confidence speaking the language is ever-growing. Whether you’re a beginner or a student stuck in the intermediate/advanced plateau then absolutely book a lesson with him - I can’t recommend him highly enough!!

I have been studying Italian with Antonio for about a month now and it has been an incredible experience. His lessons are engaging and tailored to my interests and goals. He has a positive attitude, making the learning process enjoyable and motivating. He speaks clearly in Italian and takes care to ensure I understand the material thoroughly. He also provides constructive feedback and encourages speaking, even when I am unsure of how to say something. He sends detailed notes of our lessons, which have become extremely useful study references, as well as pertinent exercises to practice on my own. Antonio's teaching method boosts my self-esteem to become more assertive in using the Italian language. Overall, I highly recommend Antonio as an Italian tutor for anyone looking to learn the language effectively while enjoying the process.

Antonio is the best! He is very patient and takes time to explain things very well. He even takes notes live during the sessions so you can visualize corrections or new words. He can also make the lesson more or less formal as needed, and provide homework if you want some extra practice too. I’ve been so grateful to have had his help as I prepare for my move to Italy. Book a session with him right away, but be sure to leave at least one slot open for me! 😁
