Présentation

I am an experienced teacher now working in the University, I am offering my services on Apprentus cause I like to keep up with individual or small group lessons cause it offers a different relation with the students and an engaging activity trying to define every time how to deliver a great result for students with very different needs.
I use a variety of materials, many of them prepared for foreign students, others adapted from authentic Italian texts, in order to provide an up to date knowledge of the language used in the country or in a specific business.
I am a grammar lover but I do understand the necessity of providing students with communicative tools and not only hours of exercise on books. Every lesson can be tailored on your needs and likes, from music to art, travels or professional interests, you do really just have to try!

Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living between Pisa and Rome. I have 10 years of teaching experience. I am very patient and I love to make a relaxed and friendly class environment. I have qualifications and experience teaching at different levels and in different contexts. I can help the student to improve the oral, written, and comprehension skills. Most important is that each course is based on the needs, interests, and availability of the student. I can offer students private accommodation in Pisa, a comfortable private apartment in the historic center of the city, a short walk from my home.

- The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and putting the focus on the functional aspect of the language. For beginners, I usually follow a specific program, I prepare a course, and for each lesson, I send students the files that I scan from the various books. Also, the lessons can be essentially developed as conversations on specific subjects.

Des cours d'Italien sur mesure.
Je donne des cours de ma langue maternelle aux jeunes qui ont besoin d'un soutien scolaire et à tous ceux qui ont envie d'apprendre l'italien.
La relation de confiance que j'arrive à créer avec les élèves donne toujours des bons résultats.
Patiente et toujours de bonne humeur je m'adapte aux demandes des élèves: conversation, lecture, grammaire, vocabulaire, tout peut être abordé, parce que mon but est de rendre l'apprentissage de l'italien très agréable et surtout productif, afin que les progrès soient visibles rapidement.

If you wish to brush up your Italian, resume a past series of lessons, or simply start from scratch learning Italian, this is the right lesson for you! I like to personalize each class/course according to the needs and goals of my students. My classes are focused on improving the student's communication skills. At beginner and lower intermediate levels, I prefer using a text book/ student book in the first part of the class. I usually use "Nuovissimo Progetto Italiano" and "Arrivederci" by Edilingua, or "Nuovo Espresso" and "Dieci" by Alma Publishing. For the second part of the lesson, I create engaging contents using original videos, press articles, extracts from blogs and social media, literary texts. If the students do not feel comfortable using Italian from scratch, I can switch to English, German, or Dutch. The course fee includes the correction of home assignments.

I offer Italian lessons for adults using a specific, very lively and effective method that will allow you to understand, read books in Italian, watch films in the original version and above all to express yourself quickly, with a solid grammatical foundation, in everyday life, but also to have rich conversations with your interlocutors.
Possibility of face-to-face or video lessons, at your convenience, knowing that my video lessons are just as interactive and lively as in person.

👋🏼 Hello! I'm Francesca. Do you want to learn or improve your Italian?
No problem, more than 300 students have studied with me and learned while having fun. I started teaching at 19 thanks to the director of my high school and I have more than 15 years of experience, in Italy and abroad, all over the world thanks to the internet.
I offer online Italian courses for all levels, from absolute beginners to advanced learners, i.e., C2. I always have quality reference books to recommend to students.
My classes are highly personalized and tailored to the specific needs of each student. I guarantee quality because I put a lot of passion and care into everything I do, trying not to overlook the details.

🚀 During the lessons, I will help you learn the basics of general Italian, paying attention to pronunciation and intonation while reading. I am always attentive to the needs of the students and ready to tailor my lessons. My lessons are an investment for the present and the future because they are prepared with passion, a lot of experience, and dedication 🧡.

🌟 If you are a beginner, don't worry because I take great care to make you feel comfortable.

➡️ I work on different levels: conversation on different topics, grammar, reading, writing, dictation and games (role-playing games in which the student can test himself by communicating in a natural and practical way with the teacher, as in real life).
In addition, preparation for official language certificates (CELI, CILS, PLIDA), the Swiss maturity exam, apprenticeship as a commercial employee CFC and tailor-made courses in a certain professional field.
➡️ All levels: A1-C2

I grew up abroad, studied in English, and have always worked in English-speaking environments. Over the years, I’ve led teams, coached individuals, and offered private sessions on various topics — including conversational English.

In schools, there’s often a strong focus on grammar, which is important, but not enough time is spent just talking. To really improve a language, you need space to speak freely, make mistakes, and have fun — and that’s exactly what I offer.

I can teach in English or Italian, and the sessions are relaxed, empathetic, and fully tailored to you. We can chat about everyday life, hobbies, travel, work — anything you like — and do exercises, reading, listening, or vocabulary practice if you want.

One of my favorite moments was working with my 12- and 13-year-old niece and nephew in Italy. They started off a little shy, but over time their confidence and English improved so much that when we traveled to the US last year, we could all converse easily and have fun with it.

The sessions are fun, stress-free, and flexible — your pace, your topics, your learning. Let’s practice together and enjoy the journey to more confident English (or Italian!) conversation.

Italian: From basic phrases to fluent conversation.

I am collaborating with academies and agencies such as Piccolo Moresco, Kleinson, Beacon, Language Solutions, Idiomas Sin Fronteras, Chalmore, Daniel's Centre, One2One, IMAN, Agioglobal, etc., but I am always looking for new challenges and projects in good training centers where I can share knowledge.
Among my students: JCDECAUX, IDEALISTA, SACYR, LIBERTY SEGUROS, MANAGEMENT SOLUTIONS, REFINITIV, NICOLÁS CORREA, SARTORIUS, INFORMATICA, ROOM MATE, THE NPD GROUP, AESICA-PHARMA, HERBERT SMITH FREEHILLS, COLPLAST (IVECO), CARESTREAM, and several ICEX scholarship students.
In addition, I successfully prepared 15 private students for CILS, CELI and PLIDA exams at various levels.
I have a reference grammar book, but I know almost all the ones on the market, and I adapt to the students' needs.
In fact, I like to highlight the key aspects of our work, the 7 Ps:
Patience, Professionalism, Preparation, Passion, Personalization, Perseverance, Punctuality.

Teaching style
I prefer a hybrid style because there is no single method for everyone; I apply a specific methodology to all learners with different objectives and learning needs. I like to encourage students to self-correct and to practice structures through both writing and conversation. I offer conversation, listening, reading, and writing classes.
