English and Italian lessons with particular attention to grammar, conversation and speech development

23 € /h

I am an Italian native speaker and I am fluent in English, having lived a decade in a few different places in the UK. Furthermore I speak Spanish to a beginner-to-intermediate level.

I’ve got two passions in life: music and cultures and they both relate to languages. Music is known to be a universal language and different cultures connect with, and influence each other, through the use of spoken language.

My formal education lays in music, holding a Bachelor’s degree in Jazz from the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland in Glasgow, and a five-year diploma as a Jazz bass player from the Civica Scuola di Musica Claudio Abbado in Milan.

I’ve been teaching music for fifteen years and during the last one I've decided to expand over to languages, by taking up the challenge to combine my passion for teaching with the love for languages. I’ve developed the latter during my many years abroad, where I shared my everyday life with people from all over te world.

My method is essentially based on grammar and conversation, alternating the two based on the student’s level of fluency. Once the basics are mastered I focus on conversation, especially providing thorough explanation about typical words and expressions and their various acceptations within different contexts. At times I may also add the odd etymology side note when relevant. I also like to use readings upon subjects that are of the student’s interest, as this aids in nurturing their motivation.

Given the transformative and fluid nature of speech, my aim is to deliver an organic learning experience, able to be put to fruition from the start and in everyday life, but that also won’t fail to address the differences between formal and informal interactions. Hence, avoiding inhibit a swift communication in favour of grammatical accuracy.

A second level of my teaching focuses on expanding the student's writing skills and this is aimed to individuals who may have achieved a solid grasp of the basis and a wider knowledge on vocabulary. This is because writing is an art on its own and its objective is to convey one's true thoughts and feelings, therefore it requires a dedicated effort.

I can teach in English, Italian and Spanish and lessons can be either in person at your place or mine, or via Zoom.

I propose an individualized pedagogy, and help with preparation for exams and concerts. My goal is to advance the student without overloading him. I give homework after each lesson and periodically provide progress reports.

Do you want to learn to play castanets? Do not hesitate to contact me. I start from a very basic level, gradually adding different content and providing resources so that you can improve the level of castanets. I can also provide you with and recommend how to choose your castanet and where to buy it. In this class you will not only learn to play the castanet but also to understand its history, its context, how to accompany the dance, the different possible rhythms, etc. If you are eager to get started, feel free to write to me. I assure you that you will learn it in a fun, entertaining and meaningful way.

Niccolo

As a private violin teacher, I always adapt my lessons to the student's needs and goals. My methodology combines instrumental technique with musical development, so that the student not only learns to play correctly but also to express themselves on the instrument. I work closely with active listening, body posture, and musicality from day one.

A typical class begins with warm-up and technique exercises (bowing, tuning, fingering), continues with a study of a piece or excerpt adapted to the student's level, and ends with practical tips for home study. I always include a moment of reflection to answer questions and consolidate what has been learned.

What distinguishes me as a teacher is my ability to motivate and inspire enthusiasm for music, thanks to my experience as a violinist and conductor. I firmly believe that everyone can find their own voice through the violin, and I strive to create a positive and dynamic environment.

I also offer support in music theory, sheet music reading, and ear training.
