PLEASE NOTE: I will be unavailable from July 16th to 27th. See you on the 28th. Have a nice summer!
Hello! I'm Annarita, a 37-year-old Italian from Padua.
I hold a Master's degree in Classics and have over 12 years of experience teaching Italian, as well as Ancient Greek and Latin. I work with adult learners of all levels from around the world.
I'm also a certified examiner for the CILS and CELI Italian language proficiency exams. All the students I have coached have passed the exams with excellent results. I also prepare learners for university exams, admission tests, job interviews, and citizenship applications.Me as a Teacher
I graduated in Classics from Padua University in 2013 and began my teaching career at a private language school in Padua. Motivated by a strong passion for language education, I chose to specialize further in this field by earning a Master’s degree in Advanced Planning for Teaching Italian to Foreigners, along with the DILS-PG II Level certification.
My experience includes working as a contract professor for the University for Foreigners of Perugia and teaching at the European Institute of Design in Milan. I have also taught business Italian to professionals at companies such as Decathlon and UniCredit Bank.
Today, I run my own business, offering personalized Italian language classes online.My lessons & teaching style
I am a certified examiner for CILS and CELI Italian language proficiency exams. I have successfully prepared numerous students for these certifications — all of whom have passed with excellent results. My deep understanding of the exam formats, evaluation criteria, and linguistic requirements allows me to tailor each lesson to ensure optimal performance and confidence on test day.
Thanks to a structured yet flexible teaching method—refined through years of hands-on experience—I’m able to guarantee measurable progress and excellent outcomes, both in language acquisition and exam success.
I also teach Latin and Ancient Greek, offering instruction in English for international learners.My teaching material

I have been taking lessons with Professor Saggion for two years now. This has been the best language learning experience that I’ve had. When I started, I had taken a semester of Italian at my old university, but I was very rusty and only able to say about three different things. Now, I’m able to speak Italian and express myself in the language in a way that has never happened for me before. I’m a PhD student studying opera so it’s very important to me to cover music as well, and she found books that would incorporate opera into our lessons. I really recommend this teacher if you want to reach your language learning goals in a professional and motivational environment!

Annarita is the best teacher ever! She is diligent, encouraging and responsive, with high standards and a joyful passion for Italian culture that makes every lesson a pleasure. After starting my lessons as a total beginner with her, I’m now ready to take the CILS B1 Cittadinanza exam. I can also speak with my Italian friends, enjoy Italian cinema and literature, and follow Italian current affairs, and I’m motivated to continue learning far beyond the exam. On our journey together, through her amazing teaching, Annarita has given me a thorough grounding in the language, but she has also given me so much more: the gift of being able to experience Italian culture to the full. A gift for life! Grazie infinite Annarita ❤️
