About

I come from Florence, the cradle of Renaissance, the homeland of Dante and his Divine Comedy, the same Florence where Alessandro Manzoni came on purpose - from Milan - to "rinse clothes in the Arno river," basically to learn to write Florentine for his historical novel I Promessi Sposi.

With me by your side, you will learn the real, pure Italian.

I graduated in History at the University of Florence, and I have a background in Communication and Journalism too. I teach Italian to children, families, amateurs, professionals, and companies. I have taught for more than ten years in Italy and the last five years in Sweden.

During my job I had many clients from around the world, this gave me the opportunity to experience different cultures and perspectives which enabled me to develop excellent communication skills and a strong understanding of the needs of the clients.

My expertise

Italian all levels, intensive courses, individual tuition, online courses via Zoom. CELI and CILS Exam Preparation courses, preparation Erasmus exams, business courses: marketing, communication, commercial, financial and legal sectors. History, art, literature, cuisine, culture, and society.

My Teaching Approach

I consider the different learning style of my clients and always various alternate activities for them to reach results.

The communicative approach emphasizes the learner’s ability to communicate various functions, such as asking and answering questions, making requests, describing, discussing, explaining, etc…

The grammar is not taught through context and inductively: rules are generalized from the practice and experience with the target language.

I adopt a wide range of materials, and I like to create my materials which allow me to meet the specific objectives of the clients.

What I offer

Face to face private lessons, individuals or in a group.

I always create a relaxed atmosphere to allow my clients to reach their objectives more efficiently. All lessons are in a luxurious environment in Stockholm. Tea and coffee are included.
