“I loved Elisa’s method, her empathy and kindness, I really enjoyed learning. We had lessons at home, at the market and in Lecce’s historical centre! I felt at my ease and experienced “la dolce vita” in Lecce!”

I’m an enthusiastic and empathetic certified teacher of Italian language for happy learners from 18 to 80 – yes, you can start learning at every age!

The private tuition is conceived as an authentic learning experience based on an up-to-date conversational, natural and immersive method. Every lesson is designed according to your interests, needs and learning style.

I believe in languages as powerful bridges between people and cultures and every day I play my part to make the world a kinder place to live in.
I held my first lesson of Italian for foreigners in 2007, after a Master’s degree in Psycholinguistics and Language teaching, and love encouraging people in their language learning path.

My courses are reserved to you: you’ll have all the time you need to speak, ask questions and enjoy learning with me – your private teacher.

Each course is conceived as a true learning experience for beginners, intermediate or advanced learners: each person I’ve had the pleasure to meet was enthusiastic, smart, kind, open-minded. And needed not only a holiday, not only a language course: each of them needed time for themself – and a unique experience to live during this time.

“We really had a good time. Learning Italian turned to be a pleasant moment during our week and we learnt a lot about daily life situations (at the restaurant, on holidays, at the hairstylist…). Elisa adapted the course at our own pace.”

“Thanks to the interaction with Elisa I discovered new expressions and new strategies that I would have never thought of by myself. Now I am able to talk about past events and to express my opinions in a very effective way.”

“Before starting the course I felt insecure and had a chaotic knowledge of Italian language. We dived into daily life situation, art, poetry, events and funny role plays. Elisa understood what I needed and was not able to express; all the confused rules I had learnt as an autodidact became finally clear and now I feel much more confident!”

Sonja, art student & poetry lover from Slovenia
