About Me
italki teacher since Jul 10, 2019InterestsEnvironment & NatureMusicSports & FitnessTravelHistory
Ciao! I’m Andrea, a certified TESOL teacher with 25+ years of experience helping students master English and Italian. Born in Italy but shaped by a decade in the UK, I bridge cultures effortlessly—perfect for learners craving fluency with authenticity.
Freedom fuels me (yes, that includes solo travels and spontaneous didgeridoo sessions!), but my real passion is empowering students. Whether you’re a CEO polishing business English or a beginner tackling grammar, I’ll make it engaging.
P.S. Love languages? I’ve learned Spanish, a bit of French, and a bit bit bit bit of Polish :)—so I *get* the struggle. Let’s turn practice into progress togetherMe as a Teacher
I’ve been teaching English (and Italian to foreigners) and collaborating with private institutes in Italy since 2005.
I work as a self-employed teacher, with all the pros and cons that come with it.
Over the years, I’ve gained extensive experience, working with a wide variety of learners—from primary school children to school students to one-on-one lessons with adults, . I’ve also taught members of the Italian Tax and Border Police, led conversation classes in high schools, conducted Business English courses for adults in companies,even CEOs , and prepared both students and professionals for various exams and certifications.
Private tutoring is also part of my work. My lessons & teaching style
I enjoy designing tailor-made lessons and courses based on each student’s needs, and I strive to build a connection that goes beyond the typical teacher-student relationship, as I believe this can greatly support their learning and personal growth.
For example, in conversation classes, I like to explore a wide range of topics aimed at developing functional language and encouraging meaningful discussion.
When it comes to grammar lessons, I use a variety of techniques, engaging lesson plans, creative worksheets, and innovative materials to make grammar more enjoyable and accessible.
In Business English, teaching skills such as emailing, telephoning, participating in meetings, and giving presenMy teaching material

Just had my first lesson with Andrea, I really like his style of explanation, he took everything at the right pace and was very encouraging when I was trying stuff out of my comfort zone. Learning a new language can be a little scary but I felt very comfortable today and I'm looking forward to more lessons!

Andrea is an excellent teacher. My Italian level is a bit all over the place - my French is decent and I've been studying Italian with Duolingo for a while, but I really struggle with speaking. Rather than just working through a packaged lesson plan, Andrea always puts together something customized and gets me speaking and working through rough patches. He's very laid-back and supportive, which is super-helpful when my brain locks up. Highly recommended.
