+6 yrs Teaching|Patient & Friendly Tutor|Conversation-Focused|Back to teaching in September Ciao! My name is Grazia, and I am from Sicily. I studied English and Spanish at the University of Florence and I am now specialising in teaching Italian as a foreign language. I have over 6 years of experience teaching languages, including Italian to beginners and advanced learners. I have lived in several cities in Italy, as well as abroad in Spain and Australia. My most recent experience was in Melbourne, where I taught Italian to students of different ages. This helped me develop a communicative and practical approach to teaching Italian. I am a patient and friendly tutor who focuses on making you feel comfortable. Having studied languages myself, I understand the challenges of learning a new language, so I create a relaxed environment where you can practise without pressure. My lessons are tailored to your level, interests and goals. They are communicative and based on real-life situations (role plays, guided dialogues, image descriptions), so you can start speaking from the first lesson. For grammar, I use an inductive method, helping you discover rules through examples. When lessons focus on conversation, I provide an article or a video in advance with useful vocabulary. After each lesson, you receive notes with corrections and new expressions. También hablo español y he vivido en España. Conozco bien tu idioma, así que puedo ayudarte a aprender italiano de forma clara y sencilla, incluso si eres principiante :)

I'm a certified Italian teacher for foreigners and I started with private lessons both online and in presence. So far, my students have expressed satisfaction about my lessons, because I'm flexible in my schedule and very focused on their goals. In my lessons, I follow an inductive methodology, which means that, as a guide in the learning process of the students, I help them to discover by themselves the rules that govern the various linguistic aspects. I think that this methodology is much more effective than other more traditional methods, since it allows better internalize what has been learned.

Learn and practice the language through relaxed, friendly conversations 🗝️ I believe that conversation is one of the most essential — and at the same time, most challenging — parts of learning a new language. I’d describe myself as a detail-oriented and somewhat perfectionist person. These traits have always pushed me to study deeply, but they’ve also sometimes made me feel like I never know enough: I know what it feels like to struggle, to feel stuck, or even frustrated when you can’t fully express yourself in another language. But don’t worry — learning never really ends, and the best part is often the journey itself, not the destination!

Native Italian teacher with over 25 years of experience. I am a native Italian teacher with over twenty-five years of teaching experience, gained in both academic and institutional settings. Throughout my career, I have worked with both secondary school and university students. I have taught Italian in pre-university schools, universities, and academies of fine arts, engaging with learners from diverse cultural and linguistic backgrounds. This experience has enabled me to develop a strong capacity for adaptability and a deep understanding of students’ needs. After thirty years of teaching, I continue to carry out this profession with passion and dedication, firmly convinced of the value of language. My lessons are designed to develop all language skills in a balanced manner: listening and reading comprehension, spoken and written production, as well as grammar and vocabulary. I place particular emphasis on real-life communication, enabling students to use Italian effectively from the earliest stages. I can support students in exam preparation, the development of formal writing, conversational skills, and the comprehension of complex texts. My teaching approach is best suited to university-level students and adult learners seeking a structured and goal-oriented learning path.

Living in different countries, I face the exciting challenge of trying to speak different idioms Among other things I am a photographer and a traveler. Being nowadays just a passion, even though constant, deep and strong, I like to consider photography as my main interest since decades, taking it very seriously regardless of the commitment as a business/profession. This is my attitude in everything I do. I am an easy person, educated and relaxed. I feel comfortable approaching any kind of conversations with any students, whatever their level might be, loving to share my experiences and listen about their own. I use to be a teacher in photography, a teaching experience that helped me developing a personal attitude in let students, and people at large, feeling comfortable at talking with me. This is my main skill in teaching, approaching any lesson, at any level, more like a friendly conversation than an examination! We’ll work together, according to any students goals, without any stress or pressure. I’m always happy to chat with the students about what they like, what they need more or about what let them feel more comfortable with. Helping them whenever will be necessary, I will stimolate them in going througt the conversation in an informal, less academic, easy and friendly way. Basic grammar for beginners, constant corrections, examples in any fields and lots of idioms, to let you discover and master the Italian language beyond and after the academic, of course necessary, steps! Ciao, grazie e a presto!

I try to be as flexible as possible and adapt to my students' needs. I really believe that motivation is key to learning a language (or anything at all probably). That is why I try to focus on what really interests my students and 'build' on that, whatever it may be – a topic, an objective in the language, a desire to visit a place. That way learning will not feel as something one 'has to' do with all its difficulties but as something one can hopefully enjoy while in the process, while learning things that are relevant to them. So yes, as a joke I that I believe that as in any kind of relationship listening to others and asking them what they wish for is a very good skill in teaching too!

Matteo Comprehensible Input What kind of tutor am I? I'm not a language-learning guru who can master and teach a new language from scratch in just a couple of weeks — far from it! I've studied many languages myself, and I'm still on the journey. Language learning, for me, is a never-ending process. Because of that, I can guide you through the process and help you avoid wasting countless hours on activities that don't actually lead to real language acquisition. In my lessons, I focus on a manageable amount of vocabulary at first, then work with you to actively retrieve it by building sentences and creating examples together. With every student, I share a Google Doc where we track our progress, one lesson at a time.

Ten years of teaching on Italki, 17 years of teaching at school. More than 250 happy students here. Hello everybody. My name is Ivana. I am from Serbia. I know it might be "not so much attractive" to hear that someone is from Serbia or another Balkan country but the best thing about this is that I can teach you serbian, croatian, bosnian, montenegrian:-). I would say these languages are all the same with small regional differences and it is a kind of political issue that we all call it differently. I know that many people prefer native speakers, but it can sometimes be tricky. The native speakers are good teachers only if they are foreign langauge teachers, believe me. I also teach latin and italian so I think I could be a good choice for you:-)

Attualmente (agosto 2025) ho concluso più di 600 lezioni, grazie! Il mio stile di insegnamento si adatta ai bisogni e agli interessi dello studente.

My teaching style is tailored on the students' needs. I always wanted to teach and I am doing my best to help who wants to learn Italian.

I am a patient teacher, and I find it easy to understand different accents thanks to my daily exposure to people from diverse nationalities and backgrounds. This allows me to identify patterns in common mistakes and apply the most effective methods to improve my students’ language skills. Furthermore, my academic and professional background has trained me to communicate even complex ideas in a simple and clear way. As a result, I am an effective communicator who can put others at ease and engage them in comfortable, meaningful conversations.
