The best Italian tutor for you | page 42

University Lecturer, CEDILS Italian as foreign or second language Ciao! I’m Giulia, CEDILS-certified Italian teacher and university lecturer from Milan. My years abroad—from Europe to Bangkok—taught me how language bridges cultures and facilitates connection. Whether you’re mastering basics or polishing fluency, I blend academic dedication with the warmth of a coffee meeting. I combine academic expertise with a learner-centered approach, valuing each student's background as an asset to our collaborative learning process. Let’s turn your goals into conversations full of discovery. With patience and attention everything is possibile! Take it easy and don't give up! Learning a language it's a journey that takes time - how long depends on your goals. I'm here to support and guide you through the process by creating a relaxed, fun space where you can learning and practice the language freely, without any fear of making mistakes. My teaching style is communicative. I will encourage you to talk, try, make mistakes and try again.

Native Italian speaker, also fluent in English with 13 years of tutoring experience Hello everyone, my name is Rossella, I'm Italian but I lived in Ireland from 2012 to 2022 and after many years abroad, I am back in Italy! I've been an Italki tutor for more than a decade and I absolutely love it! I like reading and writing but I am also addicted to TV series. I am also really happy to help people from all over the world, improve or learn Italian. I love to share everything I know about my country (the good and the bad! :D) and I like that so many students want to learn Italian, not just because they have to but because they want to, and they like Italian culture. My lessons are organized so that we can do a bit of everything (grammar, reading, conversation) and I try to make it not boring (who said that learning can't be fun?). My course is organized in 3 levels with 20 lessons each, starting from easy topics to more complicated ones. However, you don't have to follow the course if you're not interested: I'll tailor each lesson to fit the student's needs so, for instance, we can do only conversation if you'd like. :) I can go from free conversation to focused conversation, all the way to grammar. I love to chat (especially about food! :D) but I also absolutely love explaining grammar and can help you navigate the stormy sea of the Italian one! :) If you have questions, you can write me a message via Italki and I'll reply asap! :)

Native & Certified Italian Teacher - Students of all Levels I'm Martina, a linguist passionate about language teaching. Linguistics shapes both my personality and lessons. For me, grammar should not be studied mechanic and repetitively. Instead, it must be used as a tool to understand and discover language structures independently. My lessons focus on developing all 4 language abilities: reading, writing, listening and speaking - together with contextual vocabulary, culture, and conversation. Soy Martina, lingüista apasionada por la enseñanza de lenguas. La lingüística da forma tanto a mi personalidad como a mis clases. La gramática no tiene que estudiarse de manera mecánica y repetitiva. Al contrario, debe utilizarse como una herramienta para comprender y descubrir las estructuras del idioma de forma autónoma. Mis clases se centran en el desarrollo de las 4 habilidades lingüísticas: lectura, escritura, comprensión auditiva y producción oral - junto a vocabulario en contexto, cultura y conversación. Sono Martina, linguista appassionata di lingue e insegnamento linguistico. La linguistica plasma sia la mia personalità sia le mie lezioni. La grammatica non va studiata in modo meccanico e ripetitivo. Anzi, va utilizzata come strumento per comprendere e scoprire autonomamente le strutture della lingua. Le mie lezioni si concentrano sullo sviluppo di tutte e 4 le abilità linguistiche: lettura, scrittura, ascolto e produzione orale - insieme a vocabolario contestuale, cultura e conversazione.

Italian for Brazilians & for your life in Italy — speak with confidence, not fear. Ciao! I'm Alana. I grew up in Italy, I live here but my roots are Brazilian — I've also lived and worked abroad, so I know exactly what it means to build a new life in a new language. If you're Brazilian: I know where lusophone learners get stuck, because I've helped many. We can lean on Portuguese whenever you need it, so you progress faster and without stress. If you're planning a trip — or a move — to Italy: I teach the real Italian you'll actually use for daily life, bureaucracy, renting, work and travel — not textbook Italian. I'm DITALS-certified with 100+ lessons here. My students say I'm calm, patient and encouraging — so if you're afraid to speak, you're in the right place. We go at your pace. My lessons are conversation-driven: real practice, gentle correction of the mistakes that matter, and grammar explained simply. Each lesson ends with a short written summary so you can keep studying at home. Italiano • Português • English

🇮🇹 Among italki’s Top Italian Teachers | Certified | Speak with Confidence 👋 Hi! I’m Silvia, a native Italian teacher based in Barcelona. I love helping students discover that learning Italian can be both structured and enjoyable—and that speaking confidently is possible, even if you’re starting from zero. 🎓 I have been teaching Italian online for 5 years, supported by an academic background in Linguistics and a deep passion for languages. I’ve also learned three foreign languages myself—English, Spanish, and Brazilian Portuguese—so I know firsthand the challenges of learning a new language: when grammar feels confusing, speaking feels intimidating, or progress seems slower than expected. 🧩 That experience has shaped the way I teach. My lessons combine clear, structured grammar with plenty of conversation, so you don’t just understand how Italian works—you learn how to actually use it. 🗣️ Whether you’re a complete beginner or already speak Italian and want to become more fluent, we’ll work on the skills you need most: grammar, vocabulary, pronunciation, listening, and especially speaking with confidence. ✨ I believe lessons should be engaging, practical, and tailored to your goals. I’ll explain things clearly, adapt to your learning style, and create a relaxed environment where you can make mistakes, ask questions, and improve without pressure. 🚀 Ready to make real progress in Italian? Cominciamo!

🇮🇹 Speak Italian Naturally | Conversation Practice + Italian for Travel & Holidays✈️ Ciao a tutti! My name is Giovanni, and I'm from northeastern Italy. I've been teaching Italian online for 4 years, and I can't wait to introduce you to the wonderful Italian language and culture 🇮🇹 I've been exploring the world for about 9 years. I've lived in India for a long time, as well as in Thailand, Australia, New Zealand, and Sri Lanka — and who knows what's next! Extreme travel, learning/teaching languages, and the arts are my biggest passions! To be a great teacher, one must also be a constant learner of the subject. That's why, whenever possible, I learn new languages too. I am positive, relaxed, focused, funny at times, and I want you to feel comfortable during our lessons. Happy to teach you EVERYTHING you need to know for your upcoming ITALY TRIP 🇮🇹✈️ The lessons will be structured around relaxed and informal conversations about any topic of your choice and, if necessary, basic grammar tips. BEGINNER FRIENDLY!! Feel free to talk about ANYTHING you want and share what you expect from the lessons beforehand. I'll use that information to personalize our lessons. To fully understand Italian culture, I will help you learn common expressions you won't find in books. I'm ready to adapt to your preferred methods, activities, or anything else you want to do or learn. Our lessons will help a lot, but real progress comes when you surround yourself with Italian in your daily life too. A presto!!

Clear, Simple, Effective. Love it or your money back 🇮🇹 Top-Rated Italki Teacher 2025-2026 🏆 If you're an American who's tried to learn Italian before, bouncing between Duolingo, YouTube, and grammar books without it ever really clicking, I built my teaching around exactly that problem. I'm Vince, a certified Italian teacher (CEDILS, Ca' Foscari University of Venice) with thousands of lesson hours, 500+ students taught, and excellent reviews. Most of my students are American professionals, travelers, and people reconnecting with their Italian roots, so I already know what you haven't asked yet: how to fit lessons around a US schedule, how to go from "textbook Italian" to something you can use in Rome or at your grandmother's table, and how to stop second-guessing every sentence before you say it. Here's what that looks like in practice: instead of throwing more material at you, I build one structured path based on your level (A0-C2), goals, and learning style, and tell you exactly what to study next and why. Every lesson mixes conversation, grammar, pronunciation, and real-life practice, with corrections made on the spot so mistakes don't stick. Prepping for CELI, CILS or PLIDA? I build that in too. I also know what it's like to sit where you're sitting: I've lived abroad for years, mainly in South America, and learned Spanish and Portuguese as an adult. We meet on Zoom with a shared document, so you always have a clear, organized record of your progress. Book a trial lesson and let's get you speaking.
