Certified Italian teacher (DITALS) - Certified English Teacher (TEFL) Ciao! I’m Alessandra, a certified Italian teacher (DITALS) with 10 years of experience helping students master *la bella lingua*. Born near Venice and fluent in 4 languages, I’ve taught everywhere from Barcelona to Dublin—so I know the challenges (and joys!) of learning a new language firsthand. When I’m not teaching, you’ll find me trekking, cooking Italian dishes, or planning my next trip! My passion for cultures and communication fuels my lessons—whether you’re preparing for official exams or dreaming of chatting at a Venetian café. Let’s make Italian feel like home! Normally I adopt a communicative approach, but my classes also aim to explore grammar, lexical and cultural aspects. I've been teaching Italian, English and French for 10 years; I teach kids, teenagers and adults, also to business professionals. I’ve obtained the certifications DITALS (Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language) and TEFL (Teaching English as a Foreign Language). My interest for foreign languages was born long time ago and this passion has grown deeper and deeper over the years, becoming a real job. Normally I adopt a communicative approach, based on providing students with the right tools to be able to interact in different contexts. My classes also aim to explore grammar, lexical and linguistic aspects and I also give some cultural insights.

Alessandra is awesome, the lessons are chill and fun, and she really designs them to your needs. She speaks clearly, makes things easy to understand, and brings in cool stuff about Italy. She's really flexible and understanding, what makes me feel totally comfortable speaking. Totally recommend!

I have studied Italian in group settings for 3 years but felt that I needed to devote more time to my listening and speaking. Although I've only had 3 lessons with Alessandra, I can already see that I'm improving in both those areas. As we converse, she corrects my errors in the Chat so I can see my mistakes without stopping the flow of conversation. Her English is excellent and she understands English idioms very well which she then translates for me into Italian. Additionally, she is a very pleasant and patient teacher.
