Hi there! My name is Elisa, I'm from Venice, and I graduated in Political Science at Ca’ Foscari University with a thesis on the sociology of migration. Alongside studying and teaching, I’m involved in activism for human rights and social justice. I have been teaching Italian to foreign students through local associations focused on integration and support for immigrants, and this is something I continue to do. It has allowed me to work with people from diverse backgrounds and to see how language can truly connect individuals.

Elisa is an exceptional teacher whose genuine enthusiasm for language keeps her students focused, motivated, and fully engaged. She shines not only intellectually but also in her warmth, patience, and integrity as a person. Her teaching style is flexible and approachable rather than rigid, yet she has a natural way of making corrections feel meaningful and constructive rather than discouraging. What sets Elisa apart is her ability to truly connect with her students, creating an environment where learning feels both effective and enjoyable. She listens, adapts, and encourages in a way that inspires confidence and progress. I would highly recommend her to anyone seeking a teacher who is both engaging and dedicated. Among the many italki teachers available, Elisa easily ranks in the top 10%.

It’s always lovely to chat with Elisa. She is very thoughtful and kind and our conversations are so interesting and enriching. Elisa has such a gentle way of giving feedback and always finds opportunities to teach me new words or grammatical structures. Grazie mille, Elisa!

My first lesson with this young lady, very friendly and open, makes the student feel at easy and comfortable. Corrects mistakes in a very nice way that encourages learning and advancing in the process of learning Italian.
