I'm passionate about sharing the beauty of the Italian language and culture with others. My goal is to help remove communication barriers by teaching Italian properly and effectively. Born and raised in Italy, I studied economics with a focus on international trade and business. I believe understanding different languages and cultures is key to opening doors in the global economy. Outside the classroom, I enjoy playing drums and all types of music. I started drumming at a young age, and it has taught me that music can connect people beyond language, transmitting emotions like telepathy. For me, languages are fascinating. The nuances, idioms and regional dialects all reflect the character and history of a place. I teach Italian to help share this rich cultural heritage with students and make it accessible for learners of all backgrounds. My mission is simple: remove communication barriers and connect people through the beauty of language and transporting power of music. Through creative lessons and a focus on effective communication, I have helped students from all over the globe boost their Italian language skills. Whether total beginners or experienced speakers, I help refine my students' knowledge and ability to converse naturally in Italian. Using tools like video chat and messaging apps, I provide flexible informal and formal classes to fit the needs of my international students. I build their vocabulary and coach them on proper pronunciation, grammar and expressions to sound like a confident Italian speaker. Through patience, positivity and passion for the language, I motivate my students and transform their speaking ability. As my students achieve their language learning goals and go on to use Italian confidently in their daily lives, I feel I have helped truly connect people across borders through shared language. My teaching style is focused on effective communication and cultivating confidence in students. I aim to make my lessons fun and engaging through the use variety - stories, movies clips, games and interactive exercises. Students learn best when they are motivated and interested, so I get to know each student's goals and interests to tailor lessons that will inspire them. We have informal, conversational practice to help ideas and vocabulary stick. I provide timely feedback and encouragement to build up students' speaking skills and help them overcome any reluctance or hesitation. Ultimately, I want my students to feel happy and enthusiastic about speaking Italian. As they progress, I challenge them to speak more and use what they've learned outside of our lessons. My goal is for students not just to memorize words, but to leave my class with a renewed love of language and of using Italian to connect with others.
