Hi! My name is Sara and I am an experienced Italian teacher with a strong background in Classics and Language Teaching. I specialize in advanced Italian for foreigners who want to improve their fluency, enrich their vocabulary and gain confidence in speaking and writing. In addition, I offer support for academic writing in Italian: thesis review, editing and style corrections, as well as guidance on how to structure and present your work effectively. My lessons are tailored to your needs: whether you are an expat in Basel who wants to perfect your Italian, or a student working on a research paper, I will help you reach your goals with clear explanations, practical exercises and personalized feedback.

Si offrono lezioni di Italiano personalizzate, in base alle esigenze e alle preferenze dell'allievo. Mi rendo disponibile sia a chi vuole cominciare a scoprire questa lingua, sia a chi possiede già un buon livello di conoscenza dell'Italiano e desidera perfezionarlo. E' importante poter comunicare sin da subito in Italiano, indipendentemente dal livello di conoscenza da cui si comincia; proprio per questo le lezioni sono principalmente in Italiano e pongono particolare attenzione al lessico. Le mie lezioni si rivolgono inoltre a chi sta scrivendo "papers" (tesi di laurea, testi universitari, conferenze, articoli, mail di lavoro) e ha bisogno di correzioni, feedback o di un commento. Per chi conosce bene l'Italiano e desiderasse studiare o approfondire un particolare autore o un testo letterario, sono disponibile per analisi, letture e lezioni specifiche sul tema richiesto. I am offering personalized Italian lessons, based on the needs and preferences of the student. I am available both to those who want to start discovering this language and to those who already have a good level of knowledge of Italian and wish to master it. It is important to be able to communicate right from the start in Italian, regardless of the level of knowledge you are beginning from; for this very reason, lessons are mainly in Italian and place particular emphasis on dialogue. My lessons are also aimed at those who are writing “papers” (dissertations, university texts, conferences, articles, work emails) and need corrections, feedback or commentary. For those who know Italian well and would like to study or explore a particular author or literary text, I am available for analysis, readings and specific lessons on the required topic.
