Hi, I'm Michela, an Italian Language teacher with DITALS certification. I'm a native speaker living near Florence. In 2008, after a degree in Modern Literature, I earned a PhD in Cultural Anthropology in Paris and Siena followed by research and teaching in Italian universities on the role of food in culture. Please contact me or book a trial lesson. I'm looking forward to meeting you.

Michela is such a great teacher, she has great materials and is fantastic with doing corrections in a positive way. She is very goal orientated, we have a plan to improve my A2 level and begin to prepare me to go to B1.

Michela is unrivaled in both her emotional and intellectual capacity as an instructor. She is able to meet you at whatever level you are and with whatever material/content you need. She is a gem.

Michela is really good at keeping the conversation going in directions that continue to challenge me to use the grammar we've learned. But if I stumble (as I don't know how you don't!) into more complex grammar she still shows me the correct phrasing rather than just saying "oh no, we'll learn that later." That combined with reading authentic material I think will make tackling those topics in depth when the time comes much less daunting.

Michela è un'insegnante fantastica. Oggi abbiamo lavorato sulla pronuncia e sull'ascolto. È stata una lezione davvero utile. E, come sempre, è un piacere studiare con Michela! Susanna
