About Me
italki teacher since Jul 16, 2021InterestsArtHistoryTravelWritingFood
Ciao, I'm Marco, your Italian teacher and language tutor! With a Master's degree in Italian language and CEDILS certification, I'm here to help you reach your language goals. My passion lies in teaching Italian with a focus on culture, literature, travel, art history and food. As an author with published books, I bring creativity to our lessons and I can help you with Italian writing. Let's make your Italian learning experience unique and enjoyable together!"Me as a Teacher
With over a decade of experience, I've fine-tuned my teaching approach, crafting a personalized method that identifies each student's Italian language weaknesses. Together, we establish a tailored program, ensuring consistency and accountability in your learning journey.
Every lesson is meticulously designed to meet yr specific needs, incorporating targeted exercises and content. I'm providing a wealth of engaging exercises to keep you motivated: I leverage a diverse set of resources, including textbooks, videos, original texts authored by me, online content, and games. Having taught in private schools both internationally and within the Italian public school system, I've honed my skillsMy lessons & teaching style
Flexibility, consistency, enthusiasm, accountability are the main ingredients of my lessons. Student engagement is important: I'm good to teach but I don't work miracles. We can use audio material, texts, pdf, books+ a lot of structured conversation. I work with students of all levels and I prepare for CELI and others exams. Sometimes we work on writing or discussing articles. According to the need of the student we work on: conversation, pronunciation, grammar rules, sentence construction, idiomatic sentences, writing. If that's okay with you, I 'll give you some homework to do and we'll follow a schedule designed especially for you that will allow us to see your progressMy teaching material

I’ve completed over 114 lessons and I can confidently say that I’m now able to read, write, and speak well enough to carry on a conversation for at least 30 minutes with only minor errors. I highly recommend Marco to anyone learning at any level. He’s the real deal and can help you start speaking and understanding quickly. Thank you, as always, Marco! I’m looking forward to continuing my lessons!

I did numerous lessons with Marco over the last months and he is undoubtedly a marvellous teacher. He helped me both with my conversation skills but also with various grammar topics. Thanks to his excellent teaching methods, even more complex grammar areas are a lot of fun and I‘m always looking forward to our next lesson! Grazie mille, Marco!

Marco è un super professore. Non facevo una lezione con lui da gennaio 2024 e mi rendo conto che non ho perso troppo il mio italiano. Ho parlato senza sosta con qualche piccolo passaggio in spagnolo o francese, ma sono felice di riuscire a connettere il mio cervello in italiano. Mi sono anche sorpreso a notare da solo alcuni errori prima che Marco me li facesse notare. Grazie mille, Marco, e a prestissimo!
