My method

A Simple and Profound Approach

Blindly memorizing grammar rules and vocabulary, doing countless exercises, and listening to pre-recorded dialogues based on a poor imitation of real conversations means wasting time and energy in a desperate attempt to force our memory to absorb dead information that will soon be forgotten. It means stripping the language of its soul, making it sterile and incompatible with the human spirit—a foreign body that our mind keeps rejecting while we try in vain to reinsert it.

Limiting oneself to translating mentally from the native language is exhausting and reductive. Truly learning a language means understanding the worldview of a people and making their way of thinking and expressing themselves our own. During our journey, I will patiently guide you through the exploration and perception of Italian, helping you grasp the sense of pronunciation, grammar, sentence structure, appropriate terminology, and usage context. Various phases of real-life experience, logical-emotional analysis, perception, and hands-on experimentation will greatly help increase your awareness and understanding of the language.

Unique Teaching Materials

Italian is a highly modular language, and to help you understand its complexity, I’ve created over 70 exclusive PDF manuals.

In them, grammar isn’t reduced to a list of rules to memorize but is explored through logical and psychological perspectives to make it clearer, more intuitive, and most importantly, more spontaneous in everyday usage.

Each key element is highlighted with a specific color, and there are plenty of practical examples showing how to apply everything.

We’ll imitate characters from touching stories together, sing famous Italian songs, and I’ll tell you more about their meaning and the background of the artists.

Depending on which skills you want to refine, I’ll always have a specific exercise for you—either to do alone or together with me! 

The Importance of Pronunciation

Language is, above all, sound, not written text. Each one has its own sound and rhythm, and understanding this dynamic helps us attune to it.

Using the pronunciation habits of our native language can cause major difficulties.

To help you, I’ve created a unique mini pronunciation course based on a color-coding system.

Getting used to the typical Italian sound and intonation takes time, so I consistently reinforce this aspect from the very beginning to the end of our journey together. This will help you tune in with the language and manage it more easily—try and you’ll see!

We will closely observe together how native speakers produce such a fluid and naturally nuanced sound. This will not only improve your pronunciation but also enhance your listening skills.These two aspects reinforce each other and help create a self-sustaining learning process, allowing you to grasp many important details—both consciously and unconsciously—through the auditory channel, which you wouldn’t be able to achieve otherwise. 

The value of conversation

I truly care about mutual interaction—it's something I could never give up! I’m always eager to hear what you have to say, I’ll answer your questions, and at the same time, I’ll take note of words you don’t know and explain them patiently. We’ll have a lot of fun—you're very welcome!

Additionally, I’ll help you create a linguistic environment you can immerse yourself in even after class, so you can connect with real Italian examples whenever you want. This will help you make steady, long-term progress.

A Tailor-Made Path and Ongoing Support

I pay special attention to each student’s needs and personal goals. There’s space for everyone—from absolute beginners to those who want to polish their skills.

I also offer continuous support outside of lessons, answering questions and offering advice for free.

Learning a language is no less demanding than any other major life pursuit, and I will be by your side—as both your language guide and your fellow traveler.

Passion and Dedication

For me, teaching is not just a job—it’s a way of life. I give my students everything I’ve got, and each of their achievements brings joy to us both.

If you want to build solid foundations, feel confident using Italian in daily life, and discover how inspiring learning this language can be, I’d be delighted to help!
