I am very happy with our experience so far with Varsity Tutors. They matched my daughter with reading specialist Mary and she is wonderful! My 10 year old daughter feels happy after her sessions and believes her tutor has already helped her.

Elena

Certified Tutor

I am a native Italian tutor with a Master's degree in Economics from the University of Genoa, Italy. I specialize in teaching Italian language, grammar, conversation, and culture to both children and adults, from complete beginnersto advanced learners preparing for exams or improving fluency.

My lessons are interactive, engaging, and tailored to each student's goals. For younger students, I use games, storytelling, and movement to make learning fun. For adults, I focus on conversation practice, real-life situations, travel preparation, business Italian, and AP Italian exam support.

I believe students learn best through dialogue and real-life application, not just memorizing grammar rules. I integrate Italian culture, history, and even topics like economics and social studies to make lessons relevant and motivating.

I help students build confidence, improve pronunciation, master vocabulary, and understand grammar in a natural and enjoyable way. Whether you want to improve conversational Italian, prepare for an exam, or give your child a head start in language learning, I can guide you step by step.

Let's make learning Italian not only educational, but also exciting and inspiring, your own personal journey into the Italian language and culture!

With a degree in Economics, I have developed strong analytical and problem-solving skills, as well as a solid foundation in mathematics.
