About Me

Hi! My name is Raffaele, I’m 34 years old and I teach Italian in France.
I was born in Benevento but I lived almost 10 years in Rome, where I studied Philosophy and Journalism. After the university I worked in a media monitoring company.
I play the guitar and the violin, I speak three foreign languages (French, English and Spanish), I love doing sports and reading.
I have a lot of interests, and I'm sure we can quickly find something in common!Me as a Teacher
I'm currently teaching Italian in France, precisely in Briançon (Hautes-Alpes), in 3 primary schools.
So I can help you if you are starting from scratch, but I also love teaching intermediate or advanced students.
I was trained as an Italian teacher for foreign students at Venice University, where I obtained the CEDILS diploma in 2017, after having volunteered in a school.
I'm very familiar with language learning too: I learnt Spanish in Seville, where I studied as an Erasmus student, and I'm improving my French.
For my English I relied on one-to-one online lessons: I think it's the best method to improve quickly and to become fluent wherever you are in the world! My lessons & teaching style
My goal is taking your Italian to the next level!
A typical lesson with me goes through 3 steps:
1) Use of authentic material linked to your interests as a starting point for conversation.
We will use a video, an article, a song in order to discover how Italian works.
2) Analysis and focus on your week points.
I will provide you tailored writing tasks, role plays, conversational tools, grammar exercises. Learning from mistakes is the foundation.
3) Detailed feedback and advanced memory techniques.
After every lesson you will receive a detailed feedback and you will immediately be able to create your Anki flashcards and revise them using spaced repetition, in order to never forget them.My teaching material

I have been very impressed with Raffaele; he has enabled me to learn far more Italian than I thought possible over the past year. I've only spent about 15 minutes a day working on it in-between 45 minute sessions with him every week or two. Literally, whenever I have a few minutes I can use his materials and approach to make progress. I had previously thought it wasn't worth trying to learn a language with such a small time commitment, but he shows that it's definitely worth it! He introduced me to Anki and has provided very helpful materials to support my learning. His teaching approach is also very focused, attentive, and creative. Grazie Raffaele!!

My kids are really enjoying every lesson they had with Maestro Raffaele and they don't want to miss one. He makes lessons fun and interesting. Kids fall in love with reading because they can be part of the story, never complaining about extra effort. He explains things patiently until kids understand the information. We really appreciate the help that Maestro Raffaele is giving to us.

I’ve had many lessons with Raffaele and have looked forward to every one. His method of teaching is to have me speak for most of the class and make subtle corrections for my errors as I go. He writes down the errors and leaves enough time at the end to go through each and explain the reason for each error. After the class I can access the errors and corrections so I can study them for the next class. He’s also patient and a really nice person.

Le lezioni passano velocemente perché sono divertenti, interessanti e hanno un mix di grammatica e parlato intrecciati. Il suo stile di insegnamento è unico e fresco, il che è così importante se stai cercando di imparare la lingua da un po'. Mi piacciono molto le mie lezioni ogni settimana.

Raffaelle is a fantastic teacher. He identifies errors I make when speaking, and shows me what I need to correct and why. This process helps me be more attentive and I feel I am gradually improving my spoken Italian. Grazie mille, Raffaelle!
