About Me

​🎓​ Certified Italian language teacher.
👵​ Over 10 years of experience.
💬 Communicative method.


My teaching skills have taken me all over the world. I recently finished a year teaching at an Italian language centre in Midtown Manhattan. I had previously taught in Saint Petersburg, Russia as well as in the UK, Poland, and Spain.

I currently work exclusively online and I have specialized in digital interactive learning.

My lessons provide the right balance between grammar and conversation, language and cultural knowledge.

I have experience in teaching children (4 +) and adults at all levels and in preparing students for university exams and Italian language certification exams.

If you've been searching for an Italian tutor, look no further! Truly, if I could give Maria 10 stars, I would. You won't find a teacher as patient, kind, fun, and prepared as Maria. Her materials are excellent and our conversations are always interesting. I'm so happy with the progress I've been making in Italian, and it's all thanks to Maria!

I enjoy my classes with Maria Luigia a lot. She is extremely well prepared, her materials are modern and user-friendly and most importantly, Maria Luigia knows, what she's talking about. She is able to explain grammar in a very conceivable and logical way. Furthermore, after each lesson I receive plenty of homework in order to keep me active throughout the week. Highly recommended! I'm looking forward to the next class already
