About Me
CIAO! My name is Raffaele and I am a native Italian speaker who has been living abroad for 12 years (so I know the initial difficulties to learn and speak a different language).
I have a Bachelors degree in Pedagogy and I have been working as an Italian teacher for foreigners/ refugees and in school projects with teenagers who dropped out of high school, since 2004. So if you are a shy beginner do not worry, we will build your confidence together through chats, games and laughs.
My lessons are interactive and involve a lot of conversation.
You'll set the goals and I'll tailor the classes to your needs and on your learning mechanisms. I will provide you with all the materials you need like: exercises, videos, podcasts, articles and everything that can suit your learning.
I can teach Italian from A0 to B2 (from full beginner to intermediate/advanced) students.
So, feel free to set a trial lesson with me :)

My trial lessons
In my trial classes, I usually check the language skills of the new student and discuss together a learning plan, based on their availability and goals.

I have been working with Raffaele every day for about 2 months now. He is a great teacher who is flexible in his approaches and who is genuinely invested in your language skills. Raffaele goes above and beyond to explain the material and makes sure that you understand it before moving on to the next topic. He is very punctual and professional in all aspects of communication. I think the best part of working with Raffaele is his genuine interest in you as a person and what you want to get out of his lessons. It takes a very special and talented teacher with whom I can work on a daily basis. I can tell you with confidence that Raffaele is that person for me.

Raffaele is very pleasant and non threatening. He is a conscientious teacher who even had a lesson plan prepared for our 30 minute trial lesson. Raffa is a teacher by profession which is what I am looking for. If he has had and has seen results with his students, then I know he is capable and experienced enough to know what will work best for me. Having a teacher who I can understand, plus feel at ease with is very important...I have scheduled trial lessons with numerous tutors here on Verbling and if I don't feel comfortable in those 30 minutes, I move on. Looking forward to our next lesson and I recommend you giving Raffaele a try as well.

Raffa is a dedicated teacher and always very well prepared. He speaks clearly, is pleasant, patient and understands that learning a new language is a challenge. I like that Raffaele encourages me to read to him as once that becomes less of a struggle, understanding as I'm reading comes more easily as well.
