About me - English
My name is Daniela, and I have always had a deep passion for languages, communication, and cultural exchange. Teaching Italian as a foreign language allows me to combine all of these passions, while helping others discover not only a new language, but also a new way of seeing the world.
For me, learning a language is much more than memorizing vocabulary or grammar rules — it’s about building real connections, gaining confidence, and understanding a new culture from the inside. That’s why my lessons are designed to be practical, engaging, and adapted to each learner’s goals and learning style.
Over time, I’ve worked with students of different ages and backgrounds — from young learners to adult beginners — and I’ve learned that everyone has their own rhythm. I always try to create a warm, supportive environment where students feel comfortable making mistakes, asking questions, and growing at their own pace.
Whether you're learning Italian for travel, work, study, or personal interest, I’m here to guide you with patience, empathy, and a flexible approach that makes language learning both effective and enjoyable.
Qualifications & Experience
I hold a degree in Translation and have been working with languages for many years. Over time, I have developed strong skills not only in linguistic accuracy and communication, but also in teaching, intercultural exchange, and adapting content for different audiences and levels.
Thanks to my academic background and professional experience, I have a deep understanding of both the structure and the use of language in real-life contexts. I am confident working across a variety of areas, from language teaching to text editing, translation, and personalized language coaching.
Teaching Approach
My teaching approach is based on communication, personalization, and cultural immersion. I believe that learning a language should be both practical and enjoyable, and I always adapt my lessons to suit the student’s goals, level, and learning style.
Whether you are a complete beginner or looking to improve your fluency, I will guide you step by step using a mix of grammar, vocabulary, speaking, listening, and reading activities. I often include real-life materials, such as dialogues, short texts, videos, and cultural references, to help you connect the language to everyday situations.
I use a flexible and student-centered approach that combines structure with spontaneity, so each lesson feels dynamic and effective. Most importantly, I create a friendly and supportive space where you feel free to ask questions, make mistakes, and enjoy the learning process.
