Italian teacher
Hello, I’m Simona, an Italian teacher for foreigners. I design learning experiences for those who want to take their Italian to a more advanced, personal, and expressive level.
I teach through grammar, writing, speaking, and cultural immersion—but my goal goes beyond rules. I help people truly live the language, find their own voice in Italian, and feel part of a community.
My approach combines structure and transformation: clear methods, grammar, and consistent practice, together with storytelling, connection, and real-life experience. Because learning a language is not just about studying—it’s about expressing yourself, building relationships, and engaging more deeply with the world.
That’s why I also organise study trips: immersive experiences where Italian moves beyond the classroom and becomes daily life—shared meals, meaningful encounters, and a true sense of place. Not just language holidays, but authentic journeys where people stop simply studying Italian and start living it.

Io non ho scelto di fare questo viaggio, è stato lui a scegliere me. O forse avevo solo bisogno che Silvia mi facesse notare come le cose non succedono mai a caso (ancora 1 milione di volte grazie!). Mi è toccato in sorte il miglior gruppo di donne possibile, eterogeneo e meraviglioso. Con loro ho riso tanto, camminato tanto, imparato tanto in tema di erbe, piante e natura.
Quando ho prenotato era molto decisa ed entusiasta poi, prima di partire, sono nati mille dubbi, ma ormai era fatta…? I dubbi, però, si sono dissipati immediatamente sotto il sole, camminando tra i campi di lavanda. È stato un fine settimana intenso, liberatorio e stimolante. Ho conosciuto nuove donne e abbiamo condiviso un pezzetto del nostro cammino. Monica e Martha sono state a dir poco spettacolari. Ovviamente alla prossima!
