👋 Ciao! I'm Sonia, a native Italian speaker with a Master's Degree in Cinema, a deep passion for photography and the arts, and years of experience teaching Italian. My lessons combine creativity, culture, and communication to make learning truly enjoyable and effective.
🎥 Why Movies and Visual Culture?
Learning a language should be dynamic and connected to real-world experiences. With my method, you'll explore Italian through films, scenes, and artwork, making it easier to remember words by associating them with images and sounds.
You'll:
• Discover iconic Italian films cultural references
• Learn authentic expressions
• Understand Italian lifestyle and historyMe as a Teacher
📚 What Will You Learn?
With this method, you'll cover key aspects of language learning:
• Grammar in context
• Vocabulary through visual and auditory input
• Conversation skills via roleplay and storytelling
• Listening and comprehension with real-life media
👉 Prefer traditional methods? I can also include grammar exercises, vocabulary drills, and reading practice, adapting to your goals.
I also offer:
• Reading and analyzing Italian texts
• Recommendations on music, books, and films
• Corrections on written work

Sonia is an incredible and funny teacher who always has interesting videos/topics to discuss. I really enjoy our classes and her style of lessons. She speaks and pronounces extremely clearly. Our lessons have a perfect balance of learning while discussing interesting topics. I highly recommend Sonia to anyone who wants to make progress while also enjoying the process.

Ho avuto un'altra lezione ottima con Sonia. Abbiamo lavorato sulla scrittura letteraria e così ho potuto ripassare alcuni argomenti della grammatica. Grazie mille Sonia!

I’ve been taking lessons with Sonia once a week since January, and she’s honestly the best teacher I’ve had so far (I’ve tried many, not just on this platform). She’s always well prepared, and her lessons are fun, interesting, and really helpful.
She speaks clearly and explains everything in a simple and easy-to-understand way, which is perfect for beginners like me.
To sum up, Sonia is smart, creative, patient, energetic, and super friendly. I truly recommend her to anyone who struggles with speaking Italian. Believe me, she’ll find the best way to help you feel confident and motivated on your learning journey :)

Ho avuto un'altra ottima lezione con Sonia. Gli argomenti sono la nostra base per esercitare la grammatica, il vocabolario, la pronuncia in un modo naturale e divertente. Grazie mille, Sonia!

Ho avuto una lezione eccellente con Sonia: abbiamo fatto un esercizio usando come base una foto. Quindi abbiamo lavorato sulle diverse strutture sintattiche, sui verbi e, soprattutto, sul vocabolario. Grazie mille, Sonia.
