Ciao! I’m Conner—your bilingual guide to both Italian and English. With a degree in Italian Linguistics from NYU and years as a professional translator, I help learners master the structure and soul of language. Whether you’re an expat trying to live la bella vita, or a professional aiming to level up your English, I’ll get you there faster. I’ve learned and taught both languages, so I know what works—and what doesn’t. My lessons are practical, personalized, and rooted in real-world use. Let’s make your language flow so naturally, it feels like home.Me as a Teacher
My background as a linguist and translator shapes everything I do. I understand how language works beneath the surface and how people learn in real life. I tailor my approach to your learning style, goals, and personality. Whether you’re learning Italian or English, you’ll get clear explanations, strong structure, and a lot of encouragement. I care deeply about your progress, and I show up to every lesson ready to help you succeed.My lessons & teaching style
I use the communicative method with all my students—so whether you’re learning Italian or English, you’ll speak from day one. My lessons are dynamic, supportive, and always tailored to your level and goals. I emphasize real-world communication, while building a strong sense of structure and confidence. You’ll learn how to think in the language—not just memorize it. Expect clarity, curiosity, and a warm, motivating environment where you can grow.My teaching material

Conner is the best teacher you can ever get. His explanations are always clear and really helpful. He'll make you extremely comfortable, relaxed and confident. We'd been preparing for the IELTS for the half of the year and lessons were always fun and chill. Time flew really fast. I absolutely recommend to book a lesson with Conner.

I am very glad I found Conner! I moved from the U.S. to Italy three years ago, and have really struggled with learning the language. I've tried a variety of classes and teachers, but Conner is the best fit I've found so far. He's very patient as I stumble along and always answers all my questions. I finally feel like I'm making actual progress!
