I am an Italian teacher and I have learnt and improve my foreign languages travelling.
My first adventure? France and I was only 17 years old. After one year in France I made up my mind: I would have travelled and taught! I love learning new cultures, art. reading and cinema and I apply all these passions also to teaching. I have lived in 7 countries and I am learning my 7th language! I have a broad experience in teaching Italian: I taught in Italy in France, Spain and in Germany and currently I am teaching in an International School. I have a Master for teaching Italian language and culture and different certificates to improve my teaching skills.
Me as a Teacher
I started giving private lessons when I was 17 years old and since then I never stopped!
I have a Master's Degree in teaching Italian as a foreign language, a Degree in Foreign Languages and I obtained the CELTA and the TEFL for teaching English as a second language. I also attended some courses offered by Cambridge. I have experience in teaching all levels, one to one and groups up to 16 people.
I have worked in private schools and also in associations and currently I am a French and English teacher in an International School here in Germany.
I always want to foster a relaxed and calm atmosphere, we are here to learn smiling :)
My lessons & teaching style
I always use a communicative approach and this means that I always push my students to talk and to use the language. For this reason I use a lot realia, videos, songs and pictures in order to trigger conversation. Usually I also push my students to read: I provide graded readings and if they want we can dedicate the first 5 minutes of each lesson to talk about the book and the story. I teach grammar with dynamical activities and I always search for extra interesting and stimulating materials that can span from ads to poems. I will provide for each lesson homework, the pdf used for the lesson and a detailed feedback so that the student can learn from it and revise on his own.

Veronica is a wonderful language teacher, the best I have ever had! My wife and I are at very different levels, but we both use her. She has brought my Italian to the next level. Veronica is extremely patient and experienced, always friendly, and she puts together great lessons using various materials tailored to our different needs. I love how engaged she is and how she guides me to work through tricky grammar myself in a way that helps me really understand and remember it. Her experience as a teacher and her easy and welcoming manner really shine through!

I enjoyed my first lesson with Veronica very much. She explained about she makes the lessons. We started at the beginning and I learned a lot. That’s exactly what I need and I will book more lessons with her.
Grazie mille Veronica

Veronica is a fantastic italian teacher! She is extremely kind and encouraging, guides the conversation with ease and strikes a great balance between casual conversation and discussing small bits of learning material which she supplies throughout the lessons. She is also great at correcting my mistakes and paraphrasing my broken sentences in a gentle and very helpful manner. Her passion for teaching and her professional background are truly showing. Grazie per tutto e alla prossima!

Veronica is a fun and friendly Italian teacher! I was looking for a tutor after studying basic things in Italian on my own. I speak Spanish but always wanted to learn Italian. I understand a lot of the vocabulary thanks to my Spanish, but I was missing the structure of grammar and understanding of proper pronunciation.
Veronica speaks Spanish so she can tell me how to pronounce the words in an Italian way, rather than the Spanish way. I wanted a foundation of grammar and pronunciation with an experienced teacher. She uses a great book and we are progressing rapidly. I definitely recommend Veronica if you want to learn Italian!
