About Me

Ciao! I am Maria Rosaria, a qualified and experienced Italian Language Teacher for Foreigners with 10 years of teaching experience in private language schools in Italy and abroad and as a freelance teacher.
I have a Master's Degree in Foreign Languages and Literature (English and Russian) and the DITALS Level II Certification to teach Italian Language to foreigners.
Teaching is my passion and my full-time job. I put all my energies, and knowledge in my work, in order to guarantee fun, interesting, professional and tailor-made classes.
Something else about me: I like reading and hiking! :)Me as a Teacher
I'm a calm, open - minded and patient teacher. I like talking and joking with my students because I want to make them feeling relaxed and comfortable during my lessons.
I taught to students of different nationalities and this experience helped me to understand which are the difficulties in learning the Italian Language. I'm also empathetic because I know how hard and challenging the study of a foreign language is.My lessons & teaching style
During my lessons I use the communicative method. The student explores the language in real contexts and is active part of the lesson.My teaching material

Maria is fully committed to teaching and has a thorough understanding of the English Language, which is imperative for accurate translations. Making sure I end the lesson with more knowledge than when I began the lesson is her primary goal. Maria starts every class with a simple conversation but listens closely to correct grammar and pronunciation. She has been fully engaged with my progress. Her entire approach to teaching Italian is not nerve-wracking but relaxing and informative. I feel totally at ease when speaking to her. She helps develop good speaking habits by presenting exercises or by simply advancing each conversation with a broader understanding of grammar, vocabulary and idioms. Her teaching style is engaging, and the hour goes by quickly. I would highly recommend Maria as a teacher, she invests her time in her students so they become capable and competent Italian speakers.

I’ve been studying with Maria Rosaria in order to prepare for my CILS exams. It had been such a long time since I sat an exam, I was anxious about the process and had a fear of failure. Maria Rosaria is wonderful, she guided me through the phases of the exams, coached me on each aspect of the language - reading, writing, listening, speaking and grammar generally, and from the outset we established a fabulous rapport.
Maria Rosaria is very knowledgeable and also easy to just chat to; when I hadn’t done my homework or if there was a major distraction in my life, we would spend an hour just in conversation which boosted my confidence and improved my speaking skills. This week I received the results of my first exam - 93%! I’m immensely happy and looking forward to continuing our work together as I plan for the next exam in a few months.
