About Me
italki teacher since May 16, 2013Interest topicWritingHistoryFilms & TV SeriesFoodPets & Animals
Hello everyone, my name is Rossella, I'm Italian but I lived in Ireland from 2012 to 2022. After many years abroad, I am back in Italy!
About me there isn't too much to say: I like reading, I am a TV series addicted (mostly American and British altough there are a few Italian TV series that are really worth watching). In my free time I like to do "relaxing things" like jigsaw puzzles, "silly things" like friendship bracelets, or even "vintage things" like cross-stitching!
I have a partner, we live together and we had two cats, Mikey and Melody, that we loved very much and if you want, I'll tell you all about them (in Italian of course)! :DMe as a Teacher
Hello everyone, my name is Rossella, I'm Italian, I've been an Italki tutor for a few years and I absolutely love it!
I am 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.
If you have questions you can write me a message via Italki and I'll reply asap! :)My lessons & teaching style
My lessons are organised 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 organised in 4 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 tailor the 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! :)My teaching material

Teaching experience
2013 - 2024
Italian TutorI have been an Italian tutor on Italki since 2013. Over the years I have developed my own teaching method to help students progress in their study of the Italian language with different types of lessons according to the needs of each student.
Education
2002 - 2007
Other - Classical languages and literatureI graduated from Liceo Classico with a final grade of 85/100.
Subjects that one studies at this school during five years are different: Italian, history, philosophy, history of art, language and foreign literature (usually English), mathematics, physics, science.
However, the subjects that most characterise ”Liceo Classico” are Italian, Latin and Greek language and literature.

Thank you Rossella! I gain such confidence after each lesson together. I appreciate how supportive and flexible you are with those teachable moments that pop up. I enjoy that we talk and laugh together all in Italian!

As always, Rossella is supportive, patient, and knowledgeable! I learn so much during our conversations about the Italian language - far more than if we just stuck with the lesson plan. :) She knows a great deal about the language, and this helps me understand the cultural context of what we're discussing. Grazie, Rossella! :)

Rosella è sempre ben preparata per ogni lezione. Ha un piano per la lezione pronto ma è flessibile per cambiare argomento in base alle aree su cui voglio concentrarmi.

Rossella is a uniquely lively, engaging and truly supportive instructor. I had some basic knowledge of Italian before I started with her (learnt many years ago), but she truly helped me become confident on multiple levels with it. I'm a particularly slow learner (and seem to have a block with languages) but Rossella has been wonderful in making the classes personal and fun. I look forward to continuing to work with her in the future too.
