About Me

I discoreved to love teaching Italian during a volunteering experience in Romania and from than on I couldn't stop. The most interesting experience in this path was teaching Italian to refugees for 2 years. Except this, I am always with a book in hand and a movie on the agenda. I am passionate about Russian culture and I once did the Trans-Siberian train journey. I absolutely love to travel! Now I decided to settle in Russia and get to the bottom of my passion for this huge country.Me as a Teacher
I have experienced different kind of courses and students, from some illiterate refugees to Italian fluent speakers and from individual courses to lessons in a restaurant about Italian food and its terminology. Therefore, I am open to shape the lessons as much as I can to conform to students' needs and wishes. Teaching, indeed, involves a collaboration between the student and the teacher. It's fundamental to keep curiosity and desire to learn always alive, and that's what I mostly search to achieve! My lessons & teaching style
I learnt to combine classical didactic with non-formal education, that means the lessons are usually two-fold: one side is composed of classical exercises (grammar, listening, writing...), while the other tries to exercise what was learnt in a creative and intuitive way. In this way the focus is on learner's partecipation and according to my experience this helps to internalize the knowledge acquired. If you are interested I would be glad to include Italian culture in the facets you are interested in. I also try to speak and use only Italian from the first lessons but I can speak English, German and Russian too, so we can always find a middle-way.My teaching material

Federica is an amazing teacher! I have been studying with her for about 3 years now, and have learned so much! Her lessons are always enjoyable and engaging. She is always supportive and understanding, and I am really grateful to have her as my teacher!

Прекрасный ознакомительный урок, Федерика внимательно слушала и не перебивала, поправляла ошибки после того, как я закончу говорить. Очень внимательная, понятно и просто объясняла, если я что-то не поняла. Спасибо :)

Federica è davvero una gemma. È diligente a creare un ambiente comprensivo per l’apprendimento della lingua italiana e mi fa sentire che sto sempre migliorando il mio parlato. Seguiamo qualche esercizio preso da un libro scolastico, ma lei intervenne a fare due chiacchiere per conoscermi un po di più. È una grande insegnante e non vedo l’ora di usare le mie nuove abilità quando vado in Italia presto. Grazie Federica!

Federica è un'ottima insegnante che raccomanderei senza esitazione!
Federica è stata molto coinvolgente e interattiva, sempre attenta a correggere le imprecisioni ed errori senza intaccare il flusso della conversazione e della lezione.
Utilizza materiali diversi (libri di testo, articoli online, podcast, ecc.) come materiale didattico, dando molte risorse per imparare sia la lingua che la cultura e l'attualità italiana.
L'atmosfera è sempre amichevole, rilassata e orientata alla discussione, con la possibilità di approfondire la grammatica o altri temi come compiti a casa.

I had a great experience learning Italian with Francesca. She is highly professional and always well-organised, which makes each lesson clear and productive. Francesca takes the time to ask about personal goals and actively supports students in achieving them. She is polite and knowledgeable, creating a comfortable and supportive learning environment. I would definitely recommend this teacher to anyone looking to learn or improve their Italian.
