Hi, my name is Luca! I'm from Italy and I'm 26 years old. I hold a double Bachelor degree in Applied Linguistics and I'm currently a Master student in Linguistics at the University of Padua (Italy). I love vegan cooking and to create new dishes to delight the palate of my friends. I also enjoy travelling around the world and being surrounded by nature. The passion for languages has always been a part of me and I'm here to share it with you with fun and engagement. Get ready for your Italian adventure!Me as a Teacher
I consider myself a positive patient teacher and I definetly prefer an informal context. My first priority is to create a peaceful stimulating environment for my students where the don't get bored. I really appreciate it when students give me feedback and make questions because it gives me valuable insights and it allows me to improve my teaching method and the topics we are going to cover. This constant monitoring is the key to provide a rich learning experience! My lessons & teaching style
Learning Italian is not only about long word lists and hard studying, all you need is curiosity, dedication and most of all... FUN! And I'm gonna be there to support you all the time during this process. If you keep this key concept in mind you will be able to hold a conversation in Italian without any anxiety.
In class I will cover topics like culture and daily life along with some grammar using interactive material, but I'm also really happy to build my lessons according to your personal interests as it is a great help for memory and a big boost for your language skills.

Luca è un insegnante fantastico! He is very kind and encouraging in the session and provides a safe space for people learning Italian as a beginner to intermediate. He asks many questions to make sure that you are satisfied with the lessons and that it is meeting your needs. I definitely recommend studying Italian with Luca!
