Bio
I am a lifelong learner with a boundless desire for knowledge-sharing and innovation. I have a proven ability to honour commitments and deliver value, whilst upholding integrity and respect.
There is nothing more fulfilling than simplifying a complex concept and guiding someone to develop new knowledge and understanding. It is only when we are able to explain a concept to others that we have fully mastered it.

Reviews from others
Vittoria is a brilliant teacher. She takes care to offer balanced lessons, which cover enough of every sphere required. Whether it be grammar, cultural topics, day-to-day local or Italian life, I am always kept interested, informed and educated. We always have time to laugh too!

Vittoria goes out of her way to make the lessons relevant and interesting. She is also very patient with my slow pace and limited learning time, never allowing me to become despondent with my slow progress. She is an excellent teacher.

Vittoria is extremely patient and kind. From our lessons, it’s clear that she invested time and effort into preparing lesson plans tailored to my learning needs. The sessions were never rushed, and I feel I’ve learned exactly what I needed with her guidance. I highly recommend Vittoria as a language tutor.
