Привет! Меня зовут Ирис. 🌿✨ I'm a 29-year-old teacher and a third-year PhD student in Russian literature at the University of Verona. I lived in Russia for six years and studied at Saint Petersburg State University, so Russian culture is very close to my heart. I come from Naples, a sunlit and lively city in southern Italy. I love literature, foreign languages (I speak French, English, and Russian at a C2 level), and electronic music. Я настоящий гедонист! I enjoy all of life's pleasures—great food, fine wine, and good company. But what I love the most is traveling, hiking, swimming in the sea, and discovering new places. Давай учить языки вместе! 🌍📚 I am an experienced teacher with a passion for languages. I have been teaching Italian for five years in Russia (at Derzhavinsky Institute in Saint Petersburg) and have been teaching Russian to individual students since 2017, as well as at university since 2022. I’ve been studying foreign languages for as long as I can remember, so I understand how challenging—but also exciting and rewarding—the process can be. I’ll show you how amazing it feels to immerse yourself in a new language, culture, and traditions, like being reborn! At the same time, I’ll help you build confidence in your language skills, guiding and encouraging you every step of the way. I’m ready to teach students from A1 to C2, and since I know different languages, I’m sure we’ll find the best way to communicate. My method adapts to your level: if you're a begin...

Я начал учить итальянский с нуля, и уже спустя несколько занятий с Ирис почувствовал, что могу строить простые фразы и говорить на языке. Она очень дружелюбная и энергичная, поэтому уроки проходят легко и незаметно, но при этом всё остаётся понятно. Мне нравится, что Ирис подробно объясняет грамматику и мои ошибки, а также даёт большой выбор материалов для занятий и домашних заданий. Благодаря этому всегда есть ощущение прогресса. Она хвалит не автоматически, а именно за реальные достижения, и от этого похвала мотивирует ещё больше. У Ирис широкий кругозор, поэтому мы обсуждаем самые разные вещи, и язык учится как бы сам собой. Я определённо продолжу заниматься с Ирис и рекомендую её всем, кто хочет изучать итальянский.

I consider myself very fortunate to have found my ideal teacher in Iris. She is extremely knowledgeable about the Italian language and the most effective ways to teach its complexities to students. What is more, her extensive knowledge of Russian and literature makes her a fascinating conversation partner. Every lesson is meticulously prepared, and I always leave feeling motivated to put in extra effort to improve my Italian.

Iris is an outstanding Italian teacher - professional, patient, and truly passionate about teaching. Her lessons are always well-structured yet flexible, adapting to my level and interests. She makes learning fun with a mix of conversation and grammar. What I appreciate most is her encouraging attitude: she never makes me feel bad for making mistakes and always explains things clearly. Thanks to Iris, I’ve gained more confidence in my Italian and look forward to every lesson. I highly recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Italian in a supportive and effective way.

Iris is enthusiastic, encouraging, and profoundly overqualified. I'm lucky to have found such a person as a tutor.
