Hi, I’m Lara!
I was born near Venice, but a few years ago I moved to the U.S. — and suddenly, I couldn’t be myself anymore. I had jokes in my head I couldn’t say. Stories I couldn’t tell. Personality… locked behind grammar mistakes.
So I rebuilt it. Word by word.
Now I help my students do the same in Italian — not just learn the language, but feel confident, natural, and truly themselves when they speak.
Because speaking a new language isn’t about perfection. It’s about connection. 💛

Best teacher ever! I've been taking lessons with her for a few months now, and I can't imagine going back to learning Italian on my own again! Not only is she an excellent teacher, but she's super funny and makes you feel at ease. She always comes prepared with a topic to discuss for every lesson and is really good at leading a conversation if you don't know what to say. Usually, though, I have so much fun chatting with her we only have a few minutes at the end for the lesson plan!. Recently, she's been helping me prepare for a job interview in Italian, helping me learn how to write emails, use the formal, etc. I feel so lucky to have found her! Thank you Lara🥰
