Ciao! My name is Federica and I am a professional and experienced native speaker Italian language teacher. I really enjoy sharing my language and culture with people from all over the world. I also love to travel and to learn new languages as well.

I have a degree in Education Sciences (Pedagogy) from the University of Florence and a specialization in teaching Italian to foreigners, DITALS certification from the University of Foreigners of Siena.

I also have an high school degree in humanistic studies and philology.

I have been teaching italian for about five years, in language schools and as a private tutor in Florence and abroad

Now I work full time as a freelance italian language teacher on skype.

New on Verbal Planet but not to online tutoring.

My teaching method is effective, involving and fun! You will start speaking from the very first lessons, also if you are a total beginner (your first simple words of course) :)

I will provide learning materials that consist of electronic versions of paper texts, audio-books, exercises and schemas that I prepare on my own.

It is also possible to arrange special courses for particular learning needs (basic Italian for travellers, conversation, preparation for language certification exams and other) or on specific themes.
