Native Italian University Instructor based in California - Learn Italian & Conversation Native Italian & English Speaker · University Italian Instructor in California · UC San Diego Graduate · 6+ Years of Teaching Experience Ciao! 👋 I’m Thomas. I was born in Rome, raised in the United States, and now teach Italian in San Diego, California! For six years, I have taught adults and younger students at every level, from complete beginners to advanced speakers. I teach Italian at the university level, in local education programs, and privately. I graduated from UC San Diego with a degree in Communication and am currently pursuing postgraduate education in Italian for Teaching to Foreigners. I work with students learning Italian for travel, study, or life in Italy who need practical, fast language learning. My lessons are structured and built around your level, your goals, and your reason for learning Italian. Each lesson has a clear focus and follows a progressive course curriculum using my own PDF lessons and exercises, supplemented by authentic Italian dialogues cultural materials. Progress happens when students feel comfortable enough to repeat, ask questions, make mistakes, and have fun while doing it. I create an immersive Italian environment while providing the correction, explanation, and structure needed to keep moving forward. Book a trial lesson! We’ll assess your current level, discuss your goals, and establish the right course plan. Spero di conoscerti presto. Ci vediamo a lezione!

Thomas and I just had our first lesson and it was fantastic! He grew up speaking Italian at home and his command of the language is great, which really helps me with learning. I'm looking forward to my next meeting with him!

I’ve completed my third lesson with Thomas. He’s knowledgeable, instills confidence and is patient with a beginner like me. I highly recommend him and look forward to my future Italian language journey with him.
