Donatella M
Italian Teacher with 5 years of experience
My name is Donatella and I’m a native Italian Language Tutor. First of all, I think it is very important to introduce myself to give you the chance to get to know me better: I have 2 graduate degrees: a Master's degree of Languages (in French and Japanese) and a Bachelor of Economics. In addition, I have a Master’s degree in Training and Human Resource Management.
For the last five years, I have been teaching French to Italian speakers and, above all, Italian to foreigners. I have learnt that each student is unique. Each student has a unique way of thinking, unique goals, and unique language learning needs.
As a teacher, I do my best to adapt to your needs. I plan our lessons to suit you and your learning style. During our trial lesson, we will discuss your learning goals and together we’ll make a detailed plan for you to reach them. Using my materials you will be speaking Italian from day 1.
During our classes we will develop all of the skills - reading, writing, listening and most importantly speaking - through many activities: listening to songs, watching film clips, reading texts; pronunciation exercises; the introduction and memorization of vocabulary in an efficient way; and the study of grammar in an interactive way. If you have any questions you are welcome to send a message. I hope to see you in class soon.
Ciao e spero a presto!!!

I just started taking classes with Donatella. Today was my second lesson, based on what I have experienced so far, I can sense she's really interested in making sure her students will learn in a natural way, she's personable and gives the sense that you can relate to her on a friendly level, which makes it easier to speak with her. In addition, I was very impressed with the fact she assigned homework that was specifically tailored to my level after our trial lesson, without even knowing if I would decide to choose her as my tutor, which in essence sealed the deal for me. If she's willing to put in the work and effort in not knowing yet if one will decide to buy her lessons, then I can hope she will be just as excellent once on a permanent basis. Grazie mille Donatella, spero che le nostre lezioni siano molto divertenti!

If you want to learn Italian and are joining at any level, Donatella is a great tutor. Donatella has patience and makes each and every lesson unique and more important, a learning experience. I had no prior experience of the Italian language and Donatella's methods were progressive that I would learn something new following each lesson. Grazie mille Donatella!
