Matteo Serri

Ciao! Italian native speaker, CLTA qualified teacher. I give lessons at all levels with focus on speaking and Italian culture.

I am a native Italian who turned his passion for Italian language and culture into his profession.
I am a friendly person, always looking to create a relaxed and easy-going atmosphere during the classes.
I have been living in London since 2010 where I achieved a Post-Grad diploma in HR at Westminster University in 2016.
During the pandemic I decided to turn my passion about teaching into a full time job.
In 2022 I attended a CLTA certified course at International House on teaching Italian as a second language to adults.

I work on a free-lance basis for two language schools in London and I devote the rest of my working schedule to private students. I also do small groups.
I am available for online classes or in person.
Lessons will always be tailored on the student's needs and interests.
During the first lesson I will assess your level just with a very informal chat and we'll set up together a functioning plan for your own learning path.

During my classes I make use of various resources and I design my own material which I send to the student to revise. I also provide homework on a regular basis.


I am happy to tailor the classes to your likes but my main interests are:
Current Affairs
The jungle of Italian politics
Sports
Italian cuisine
Folklore and traditions
Italian history
Contemporary literature
Italian music
