About Me
italki teacher since Jul 2, 2025InterestsTravelFoodHistoryFilms & TV SeriesTech
I am Simone and I am Italian. I have many passions ranging from cinema to music, reading and traveling. The latter have allowed me to get to know many people and many different cultures.
All experiences that have opened my mind and that I carry in my heart.Me as a Teacher
Being a teacher means knowing how to make room for students' thoughts, their feelings, their activities. It means knowing how to take 'their' experience and their times as a starting point. Adapting to what they ask for and working without being heavy on the weak points. I strongly believe that the communicative approach, the spoken language, is the real goal of teaching a language. I had the opportunity to teach in a primary school and in an Italian Language School and it was one of the best experiences of my life. My lessons & teaching style
I'm used to teach to the asians people and I can help you to with IKEN, CELI and CILS.

私のレベルに合わせたレッスン内容で、楽しくイタリア語会話を勉強出来ました。なかなか言葉が出ない時も、ゆっくりと待ってくれるのも良かったです。もっと話せるようになりたいとモチベーションも上がりました。

Ottima prima lezione! I was very rusty, but Simone helped me get reacquainted with Italian and encouraged me to speak throughout the session. The lesson was very engaging, Simone meets you at your level while giving you the building blocks to go further. The hour flew by, and I left feeling motivated to continue learning. Highly recommend!

Un’altra grande lezione. Well-structured lessons with lots of supporting materials to help with grammar and vocabulary. La ringrazio ancora per il suo aiuto con il mio italiano!

This was my third lesson with Simone. As always, he was great! We did conversation practice for most of the lesson and then he pulled out some practice materials to practice my vocabulary. I highly recommend Simone to anyone practicing italian!

Simone era fantastico! Ho fatto una lezione di prova con lui e ha avuto molta pazienza con il mio italiano durante la nostra conversazione. Consiglio Simone a tutti quelli che vogliono un insegnante gentile, preparato e simpatico!
Simone was fantastic! I had a trial lesson with him, and he was very patient with my Italian during our conversation. I recommend Simone to everyone who wants a kind, knowledgeable, and friendly teacher!
