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.

  • Language Tutoring

Italian

Beginner - Advanced

With a rich teaching background and a passion for Italian, I'm equipped to guide you through the nuances of the language. Having studied at Istituto Sacro Cuore in Florence, Italy, I bring firsthand experience and expertise to our learning journey.

Born in Paris, I embraced French from the start, even before Italian. I proudly hold a Certificat Pratique de la Langue Française from Grenoble University, reflecting my deep passion and skill in the language.

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!

— Caroline

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.

— Greg

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.

— Jaslyn

Vittoria has been absolutely wonderful through this entire journey. And has made me fall inlove with a language that I thought I would never be whale to fully grasp. She is absolutely phenomenal!
