Ciao aspiranti studenti!

Mi chiamo Caterina and I'm holding one-to-one Italian tutoring sessions with a focus on building fluent and natural conversation.

My objective is to understand your aims, and help you achieve them in the way that works for you. My teaching method is both structured and fun to follow.

On our first meeting, we'll define your level and draft your bespoke leaning plan.

From lesson to lesson I like to encourage my students to carry out homework, not only in the form of traditional exercises and readings, but in assigning films & comedy sketches that will keep you engaged and motivated to learn more.

Ciao! I have been teaching Italian for the past sixteen years, privately and at language schools including La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago.

During our first two lessons, I’ll make sure you have the tools to pronounce and recognize all the sounds of Italian. This step is essential, and it makes everything that comes afterwards much easier.

When I teach, I try to avoid all the things I hated as a language student. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad textbook ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of it is still carved into my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...”

So we won’t do that.

We’ll use real songs and real literature. We’ll have real conversations, tell stories, improvise, and, when possible, go on “talking walks.” I find that when you engage more of your senses, it becomes easier to relax, stay curious, and actually remember new words.

I customize my materials around your interests, needs, and desired pace. If you love cinema, we can work with films. If you’re interested in literature, politics, food, art, history, or simply being able to have a proper conversation when you’re in Italy, that can become part of the class.

And because you’re learning with a native Italian, you’ll also learn about Italian culture, history, habits, gestures, contradictions, and ways of thinking. Language is never just a pile of grammar rules.

I speak several languages myself, so I know both how exciting and how painfully tedious learning one can be. My aim is to give you a strong foundation without draining all the life out of it.

I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre and a Master of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote my university thesis on translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden, and at one point I tried to ride a horse across America.

As an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing.

Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing.
We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis.
We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them.
In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!

If you answer yes to one or more of these questions:
○ Do you want to learn the basics of Italian, one of the most beautiful languages in the world?
○ Would you like to converse in Italian with a native speaker, improve your oral communication and pronunciation, and learn new commonly used expressions?
○ Are you fascinated by the culture, art, gastronomy or even the history of Italy?
○ Or do you mainly need to revise Italian grammar, improve your written communication or practice conjugation?

So good news, look no further: you've come to the right place!
Dante's language will no longer hold any secrets for you thanks to clear, dynamic and entertaining lessons, adapted to your pace and your personal needs.

- Small games will also be organized: don't they say that it's by having fun that we learn best?
- In addition, classes will be taught primarily in Italian from day one. For me, immersion is the most direct method of learning. However, I will use French, English, or German to clarify any doubts, especially for beginners.
- Having learned many languages myself, I understand the challenges you face and can share with you the techniques that helped me overcome them.
- At the end of each course, you will receive a personalized document containing all my notes and observations to facilitate revision and your learning.

If you are motivated, I can:
- plan homework to help you progress more quickly.
- share authentic material with you in the form of articles, videos, films or podcasts to present and comment on with me during the course.

An expert in Italian culture and literature thanks to my university studies and multilingualism, I offer courses that will help you progress quickly thanks to an effective method.
My classes are structured to allow you to practice conversation (practice Italian through everyday situations), work on grammar in a targeted manner and enrich your vocabulary through the analysis of written or oral documents together.

No, you don't see the unexpected news, here you go!
I look forward to meeting you, see you soon!

In short, you will learn:
✅ Swedish culture & mindset
✅ Natural expressions and pronunciation
✅ How people actually speak

🌍What can you expect?
Our first lesson will be all about you - your goals, your challenges, and how you like to learn. Based on that, I’ll build a personalised lesson plan that suits your learning style.

Are you:
✅ An expat living in Sweden?

Do you understand Italian but struggle to speak with confidence? Or are you planning a trip to Italy and want to feel more comfortable communicating with locals?

I'm Roberta, a native Italian tutor with an international background and training in theatre and acting.

My lessons help you move beyond textbook Italian and start using the language naturally. Through real-life conversation, role-play, music, films and culture, we'll work on fluency, pronunciation and finding your own voice in Italian.

Having learned several languages myself, I understand what it feels like to search for words or fear making mistakes. My approach is personal, creative and practical: less fear of getting it wrong, more confidence to express yourself.
