I'm a half Italian-half Canadian tutor, born in Canada and raised in Rome. I'm fully bilingual in both languages. I love teaching and interacting with students. I've tutored Italian to kids and adults, beginners to advanced in Toronto, Rome and online since 2015.


I specialize in conversations and teaching beginners and intermediates. I start by teaching very basic grammar and then adding on vocabulary, reading, speaking and writing. It's hands on so I get the student to do exercises and I get them to speak as much as possible.

I like to alternate between grammar and interactive activities (like listening to a podcast, songs, looking at a movie scene) for the lessons to be more dynamic and fun!

I offer crash courses, that focus on comprehension and speaking, for people who are traveling to Italy on a holiday and advance courses for people who want to become fluent in Italian. I know Rome and the Roman dialect very well, so if you're planning a trip to Rome and want to get to know my favorite (non touristy) restaurants, cafes, museums and I can help you! I really like getting to know my students and adapting the lessons to their needs.
