About Me
italki teacher since Jul 24, 2025InterestsReadingEnvironment & NatureFoodHistoryTravel
My name is Caterina, I teach Italian literature and History in high school. I studied Latin, Greek, and Classical Armenian — but I also love roasting vegetables, walking in nature, and watching slightly tragic queer films. I'm passionate about literature, especially by women writers, and on slow days you'll find me crocheting with a cup of herbal tea. I was born in Genoa, lived in Bologna, and now I'm based in Abruzzo. I also teach abroad whenever I can.
I believe the best way to learn a language is through conversation — in a space where you don’t feel judged, but free to make mistakes and learn at your own pace, in your own way.Me as a Teacher
I'm a patient, creative, and very curious teacher. I love listening to people and finding the right way to help them feel comfortable with the Italian language. I’ve taught in many different contexts — in schools, and also in associations supporting migrants — and I easily adapt to my students’ learning styles.
If you’re looking for a welcoming teacher who will encourage you to speak without fear (and with a touch of irony), I might be the right one for you. My lessons are light, but never superficial!
Whether you want to master Italian just to order the perfect aperitivo at a bar — or because you dream of reading Dante’s Divina Commedia in the original — I’m here to help you! My lessons & teaching style
I believe languages are, first and foremost, tools for communication — that’s why my lessons focus on real, living Italian, with lots of conversation, practical examples, and real-life contexts.
We can read texts, listen to dialogues, play with grammar, and talk about literature, food, travel, politics — or whatever you're passionate about. My lessons are tailored to you: whether you’re starting from scratch, looking to improve your level, preparing for an exam, or learning Italian for work or study, we’ll find the right path together.
I personally prepare all the materials, and at the end of each lesson I’ll send them to you in a handy PDF.My teaching material

This was my first lesson and I had so much fun. Caterina encouraged me to talk and think in Italian for most of the lesson which is what I need to improve my very basic Italian skills. Grazie!!

Caterina is extremelly patient with my very low level haha. She always makes sure to adjust to my needs, explains things well, provides with materials and finds useful conversation topics. She’s kind and friendly which makes the lessons a relaxed environment where it’s okay to make mistakes. She does a wonderful job at speaking to me in italian even though I can’t quite respond properly in italian yet, and she doesn’t mind repeating and explaining things or slowing down when I don’t understand them.
Thank you!
