Linguista appassionata ed esperta, insegno italiano e spagnolo online a tutti i livelli e con metodologie ad hoc

Paola has been teaching me for just over two years, taking me from someone trying to get some basic Italian phrases using Babbel/Duolingo on the internet to what I understand is level B1, described as "Intermediate level". I have been very impressed. She follows a course, but draws on a wide range of sources and materials, developing listening and speaking skills alongside the reading and learning of structure of the language. The learning is in the context of a range of subjects, from music and culture through news and topical issues in the media, so it is always interesting.
Paola is passionate about teaching, and that enthusiasm comes through in the lessons and the follow up.
If you are serious about wanting to learn Italian (or Spanish, or French!), Paola would be a great choice.

Paola is a great teacher. She is very friendly and kind, and she is flexible and capable of tailoring her classes to your specific needs. I have always had a lot of fun in her classes. I’d recommend her to anyone!

Paola has been my Spanish tutor for more than 3 years and we have also become friends. She was recommended to me by a friend learning Italian. Her style is very much student led, she adapts the methods and classes to how the person learns and what they need to focus on. For me it is mainly conversational and I have achieved my goal to be able to converse easily when I am in Spain.
Paola is proactive in finding the relevant material and has set up a successful conversational group which meets weekly.
I would recommend her as a tutor to anyone wishing 121 classes or to join a small group to learn/improve either Spanish, Italian, French or English

Paola is a truly gifted tutor, I can highly recommend her. Determined to overcome my fear of learning languages, I started Italian with Paola. Every class is tailored to my needs, responding to the ways I learn best. She is very creative, digging out materials and films she knows will inspire me. The fact we both love art, sculpture and music makes our conversations in Italian so interesting. Being tutored by Paola has been a real revelation - I have surprised myself that I am finally speaking a foreign language and have lost my self-consciousness. Roll-on going to Italy so I can put it all into practice. It’s the highlight of my week seeing the smiling Paola, ready to bring the joy of Italian and Italian culture into my life.
