About Me

Hi there, my name is Clemente and I am your Italian teacher. I work mainly as freelance journalist and cooperate with some online Italian magazines. But I also love teaching Italian to foreigners. For this reason, I got a CEDILS certification and I have been teaching Italian for almost two years.Me as a Teacher
My first experience with language-teaching and exchange (a good and useful experience) was represented by tandem language learning (when I lived in Brighton). My lessons are structured according to language proficiency levels set by the European framework. But, beyond that, methodology, approach and the relationship between teacher and student are all that matters. Language isn't just grammar. Language is a communicative act and grammar plays a fundamental role in order to learn a language. It can't be, however, the only way to "achieve the objective". I think you can learn languages if you don't get bored, if you feel enthusiasm, if you have passion for what you are learning.My lessons & teaching style
A "real" practice and a reflection on grammar rules with the right balance between practice and theory is the best way to learn a language. Last but not least, learning a language isn't a passive receiving. It is all about dialogue. And dialogue must be interesting, amusing and culturally significant. It is all about direct teaching style: you will be speaking even from a beginner’s level.My teaching material

If you want to learn Italian the right way, go with a professional teacher like Clemente, he is a renowned journalist and very aware and updated on the language and the correct way of speaking. Plus, he will also let you in on certain ways of speaking that may not be correct but are often used. Either way, he is the best! Davvero!

A great first class! It was a real pleasure talking with Clemente. We only did conversation, so he could assess my level and talked about my previous language learning experience, places I have visited in Italy, my motivation to learn Italian and how to proceed with the classes. He spoke very clearly and at the right speed, so I could understand him perfectly. I liked that he only spoke Italian and this way making me try harder to express myself in Italian as well. When I occasionally threw in a Spanish word, he would understand and correct me. He corrected in a way that the flow of speech wasn't interrupted and I learnt a couple of useful expressions. Clemente was very patient and encouraging and gave me the motivating feeling of already being able to hold an actual conversation in Italian instead of just stuttering. My next class is already booked! Grazie mille, Clemente!

Clemente is an amazing teacher who understands how to meet you where you are at. He is very knowledgeable about all facets of the language and how to optimally design lessons to convey his intellect to work incredibly well with students.

Clemente is the best. When I started last year, my ability to speak Italian was limited and I was often too shy to say the little I knew how. There is no magical way to learn a language overnight, but with his help and direction, it's taken me less than a year to become quite conversational, and certainly much more comfortable. If you are serious about learning, study with him. He'll get you to where you want to be and you'll have a good laugh along the way.
