Hi everyone! I’m Anna, an online Italian teacher specialised in Italian language and culture for foreign students. With over 15 years of experience teaching learners of all levels, I help students develop an authentic, confident and natural Italian.
I am bilingual in Italian and English, with a five-year degree in English Language and Literature and an ITALS Master’s degree (completed with top marks). My background also includes a specialisation in neurolinguistics and psycholinguistics, which shapes my teaching method and allows me to create personalised, effective learning paths based on how the brain acquires languages.
My teaching approach
In my lessons, I combine method, creativity and student-centred learning. I design activities using:
This way, every student stays motivated, involved and aware of their own progress while learning Italian. My goal is to help you communicate in Italian naturally, confidently and with pleasure, discovering not just a language, but an entire culture.
Podcast & resources
I am also a podcaster and the host of “Una Storia ItaliAnna”, available on:
You can also find me on YouTube, and if you want to download transcripts of my podcast episodes or additional study materials, visit my page on Buy Me a Coffee – Una Storia ItaliAnna.
A bit about me
When I’m not teaching, I love travelling. I lived in London and later in Liverpool while writing my dissertation. I also speak Spanish, so I know very well what it means to learn a new language from scratch.

Anna has the patience of a saint! Not often, but sometimes my days make me foggy and I'm not as prepared as I'd like to be for the session. Anna understands and generously adjusts without any judgement! It then becomes a very productive session, regardless. In that way, and many other ways, she's an exceptional tutor!!

Anna is a wonderful and joyful tutor! Extremely patient and encouraging. She explains things very concisely and very clearly, so it's easy to quickly grasp concepts that before seemed confusing. Anna has a warm and welcoming manner, and it's very clear how much she enjoys helping others (especially great when you're feeling clumsy speaking). I can't recommend Anna highly enough!
