👋 👨🏻‍🏫 🎊 🏠 🤌 🏳️‍🌈 👀✍️⏰💌 Ciao I'm 39 and I come from the seaside in the south of Rome. (Currently living between Bologna and Rome). I have a degree in foreign languages and literature and I am CEDILS and TEFL certified. I am a dedicated bilingual Italian L2/LS and ESOL teacher with intercultural experience, excellent communication, and linguistic skills with a proven track record of providing high-quality learning. I assisted students from 37 countries on their language journeys using English and Spanish as the common language. Before becoming a teacher I lived and worked around Europe for 10 years in Italy, the UK, Spain, and Germany. I speak English, Spanish, and a bit of French.

Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven

OUR SESSIONS: During the first part of our lessons, we will work on your conversational skills to build confidence, and I will identify the grammar aspects that need work. In the second half, we will focus on grammar, reading comprehension using articles, role-plays, and I can assign written homework according to your level. We will work on the functional language for everyday situations, learning grammar and vocabulary while improving your real-life conversation and speaking. We will share the screen using a teaching platform, and you will have access to interactive lessons, articles, videos, and exercises. You can do your homework offline and review the lesson any time you want.

I’ve been taking lesson with Americo for 2 years. His thoughtful tutelage has been instrumental in my language learning journey. I’ve gone from knowing nothing to being able to hold my own in Italian conversation over that time, and I can’t imagine where I would be without Americo. A great teacher and friend.

Americo is always supportive and engaged whether it’s casual conversation practice or more structured exercises. Equally if not more important , through his deep knowledge of the language , he is able to provide meaningful detailed guidance in terms of of language structure , grammar , colloquial phrases etc . This allowed me to expand on basic sentences to develop into more natural fuller dialogue in an easygoing natural process .

Learning Italian is one of hardest and most challenging thing I have ever done, but thanks to Americo it continues to be an enjoyable and rewarding experience. He is a very patient and encouraging, empathetic and kind teacher. Americo’s professionalism, intuitive nature and attention to detail means that every single lesson is productive and purposeful, but also fun and interesting. He is very good at identifying what I need to work on, when I need to be challenged and when I need help. I really value and appreciate Americo’s support and encouragement, especially when I am struggling and finding things difficult, he always manages to find a way to turn these moments of frustration into a positive experience. This has really helped me develop my confidence in Italian, which in turn makes me feel more at home and happy in Italy. Grazie Mille Americo! :-)
