I’m a 23-year-old Italian student passionate about languages and cultures. I’ve had the chance to study abroad in Panama for a year and spend six months in China, and I also studied Chinese during my undergraduate degree. These experiences taught me firsthand what it’s like to learn a new language and navigate different cultures. I know how challenging it can be, but I also know how exciting and rewarding it is—and that’s exactly what I want to share with my students. I adapt my lessons to each student’s needs and try to make learning fun, relaxed, and something they look forward to.

Me as a Teacher

I’m a flexible, student-focused teacher who likes to get to know what motivates each person I teach. I try to make lessons relaxed and friendly, so students feel comfortable practicing and making mistakes. My goal is always to help students feel confident, enjoy the learning process, and make real progress at their own pace.

My lessons & teaching style

My lessons are informal, relaxed, and adapted to each student’s needs. I like creating a friendly environment where learning a language feels natural and enjoyable. I’m currently studying Languages and Italian Cultures for Foreigners at university, focusing on teaching Italian as a second language (L2). This means that, if a student wishes, I can incorporate the methods and insights I’m learning into our lessons, combining academic knowledge with a fun and personalized approach.
