Ciao a tutti!! 👋
I am Cristina, and I was born and live in Viareggio, in beautiful Tuscany. I have always had a passion for both foreign languages and Italian, but eventually I decided that my real passion was for teaching.
This is how my work on Italki was born, where I have been passionately teaching Italian for more than 4 years, and every day I grow and become more and more enriched. I love accompanying people on their journey to discover this beautiful culture, language, and land.
Both I, with the languages I have studied, and you, with Italian, we are like seeds 🌱, which if cultivated with dedication, will become a beautiful tree 🌳
What do you say, let's get started? 💪

Me as a Teacher
I am a very flexible tutor and willing to help you achieve your goals, whether it is to speak more fluently or to prepare for a test or to delve into grammar topics.
Conversations with me are very real and natural and will be more or less "sophisticated" depending on your level. I will also be able to use material if you choose, to make it more interesting and enjoyable.
My lessons & teaching style
🗣 In the lessons "Parliamo italiano insieme!" we can talk about various topics in the most natural way. Like have a coffee in a bar .
📚 In the lessons "Chiariamo insieme la grammatica o miglioriamo la scrittura" I will take care of explaining to you the topic that you have chosen to investigate by doing many exercises, thus going into detail.
This lesson can also be devoted to correcting written texts only, since writing that is more difficult than spoken language.
🚀 In the lessons "From 0 to Italian" is a light Italian course for absolute beginners. In 10 lessons you will acquire a solid foundation for become independent and move on to conversation only.

Through conversation and exercises, Cristina helped me identify some important pieces of the rules of grammar that I had previously skipped over in my independent studies. She made reviewing the rules fun, and gave me homework to help cement my learning.

Cristina, is absolutely the best! She is super smart and answers any question I have efficiently and effectively. She is kind and so easy to talk to. She is by far one of the best tutors.
Mi sono piaciute tutte le nostre conversazioni.

Cristina is helping me better understand some of the verb tenses that I was avoiding and how to use them in both formal and informal situations. It is challenging in a good way, and will definitely help me leap forward in my skill level.

Cristina is an active listener and easily gets me started in discussing the reading homework. She's giving me challenging grammar homework which we review during the lesson. I am learning so much every week.

Excellent conversation session. Cristina asks challenging questions to start the dialogue, and is a patient and active listener.
