Flavia

It is always a pleasure to have a real authentic conversation with Flavia. She asks thoughtful questions that challenge me to use the grammar skills and vocabulary I have been previously exposed to. When I get stuck, she is patient and gives ample wait time for me to think and provides immediate feedback. I highly recommend Flavia as a tutor for all.

Flavia and I have completed almost 60 lessons together. She is a patient, kind, and expert Italian teacher. Flavia is fluent in Italian and English, but we hardly ever talk in English in our lessons. She does a great job of tailoring the lesson to my skill level, and speaking in Italian as much as possible. She is also great at increasing the difficulty level of the lesson as I have gained more experience with the language. She makes it just a little bit harder each time, by introducing new words or grammar concepts, that challenge me just enough, but still leave me feeling accomplished at the end of the lesson. Lessons on iTalki are the number one reason for my improved ability to speak Italian, and I attribute most of that to Flavia and her incredible teaching skills. If you are looking for an Italian teacher, don't hesitate anymore, choose Flavia!

I've been learning with Flavia for a year now, and every lesson is always really great! She has a huge amount of patience, and has a really great instinct for when to correct errors and when to let you get it out, and there's never any fear of making errors. She also explains things really well, too. I'm very grateful that she was the first teacher I ever spoke to in Italian, because she made sure I was comfortable from lesson one which then gave me the courage to speak to more native speakers as well, including during trips to Italy :)

Flavia is the Best. She asks incredibly fun and insightful questions. I want to i prove my italian to be able to converse with her better ;) 5 stars

another great lesson!

Flavia continues to be an excellent teacher for me! Thank you, Flavia
