Hi! My name is Elisa. I'm a native Italian speaker and I live in Italy. I have been teaching Italian for more than 5 years here on Italki and I am so excited to know new students!
I would like to help you learning Italian! I have a master degree in foreign literature and languages and I have a strong passion for languages! I've studied English, Spanish and Portuguese, but I also understand French. When I was at University, I had the opportunity to go to Spain for an Internship, and here I improved my Spanish knowledge, especially in conversation. I love to talk with people from other countries, and I have a lots of friends from all over the world! I'm patient, friendly and helpful.

Me as a Teacher
I love to help other people to learn a new language, because I think that to be bilingual is one of the greatest thing you can do in your life! My motto is: you can't buy happiness, but you can learn languages and that's kind of the same thing!
My lessons & teaching style
I usually work using images, textes or videos in italian, because It can be useful to find arguments and to have a natural conversation about many fields!
In my classes you will:
-master all grammar, idiomatic expressions, vocabulary, etc
-get to know a culture and language
-strengthen your skills in reading, writing, speaking, comprehension, and vocabulary
-gain more confidence with the language!

Elisa is absolutely wonderful! She is exactly what I was looking for in a language tutor, & after just 5 lessons, I already see & feel progress in my Italian. Lessons are comfortable and encouraging. The dynamic she maintains doesn't feel like tutor-student, but rather friends, which is incredibly comforting & allows me to make mistakes embarassment free. She is incredibly patient and has the best balance between colloquial & formal Italian. My Italian boyfriend can vouch for my progress & I quote, "you're [me] forming sentences in spoken Italian, not book Italian. Good job!" Apart from spoken Italian, she explains grammar in an accessible way, answers any & all questions I have about syntax, vocab, etc. Exercises feel fun & not daunting at all, * I really enjoy discussing my interests & culture in Italian - which means I am building my own personal lexicon, & quickly! I have no doubt that by the end of the year, I will be confident in my Italian all thanks to Elisa! Grazie mille!

Elisa is a very good teacher. I wanted conversation practice and our lessons are completely in Italian...very little to no English. She is patient and understanding of my very broken Italian but always provides me with constructive guidance for improving. Her instruction has made a very noticeable difference in my confidence and speaking in a very short time. She is definitely a "go to" Community teacher.

Elisa es muy buena para escuchar, para sacar temas de conversación y muy paciente para corregir. Se interesa en los temas de uno y hace que las sesiones sean muy amenas.

Mi sesión con Elisa fue de conversación, me motivó mucho a seguir aprendiendo y fue muy amena toda la sesión así como muy puntual en todas las correcciones. A pesar de ser la primera sesión hablando con ella, me hizo sentir como que ya nos conocíamos de tiempo atrás hablando de temas muy diversos que me daban la oportunidad de practicar.
