About Elisa
I am native Italian speaker currently based in London. I am engaged in an academic research project that explores the intersections between Italian Literature and the History of Art. My teaching journey began 12 years ago when I became a private tutor in Italy. It was a transformative experience that allowed me to assist children, teenagers, and young students in their academic pursuits, including homework assignments and preparation for their final high school exams. To further immerse myself in the world of language instruction, I dedicated six months as a volunteer with a cultural organisation that provided free Italian lessons to foreigners. This experience allowed me to share my language and culture with individuals from diverse backgrounds, fostering a sense of connection and understanding through the power of language. Over the years, I have had the opportunity to teach Italian both abroad and within universities. From Berlin to Gent, Oxford to London, I have guided students in their language learning journey, serving as a private tutor and also within formal educational settings. This exposure has equipped me with a multicultural perspective and an adaptable teaching approach, tailored to the unique needs and aspirations of each student.

I firmly believe that every student is unique, with their own specific needs and areas for improvement. Therefore, I am dedicated to providing customised classes that align with each student's individual requirements and weaknesses. Whether you aspire to enhance your conversational skills, strengthen your grasp of grammar, or delve into the art of translation, I am committed to tailoring my lessons to meet your goals. In our conversation classes, we will engage in lively and interactive discussions, fostering your ability to confidently express yourself in Italian. Through various engaging activities and real-life scenarios, we will explore vocabulary, idiomatic expressions, and cultural nuances, ensuring your language skills are both practical and authentic. For those seeking to solidify their understanding of Italian grammar, I will guide you through comprehensive lessons designed to address your specific challenges. Together, we will tackle grammar rules, sentence structure, verb conjugations, and syntax, providing you with a solid foundation for effective communication. Furthermore, if you are interested in translation, I will introduce you to the intricacies of Italian-English or English-Italian translation techniques. We will explore different genres, texts, and idiomatic expressions, developing your ability to convey meaning accurately and fluently between languages. Throughout our lessons, my approach will be patient, supportive, and tailored to your unique learning style. I strive to create a comfortable and encouraging environment where you can feel confident in practising your Italian skills, making mistakes, and ultimately, progressing towards fluency.

I’ve been taking Italian lessons from Elisa for 6 months now. She’s very attentive and she is carefully preparing me for the exam I would like to take. She gives reasonable amount of homework which I learn a lot from. I understand more now when my husband speaks to our daughter in Italian. I’m very happy with her as a teacher and would highly recommend her.
Elisa is an excellent teacher. She helped me with my A-level Art History, especially with developing arguments and structuring essays. She always provided thorough feedback and was patient and encouraging. I learned a lot, I can only recommend her!
I studied as an EPQ candidate with Elisa as my mentor. As a sixth form student I had very little experience writing extended academic essays and embarking on academic research however I now feel proficient in both and prepared to complete future projects independently. Elisa was a fantastic mentor who was dedicated and offered specific and in-depth advice which supported me to develop my skills and ideas. I am so grateful to have been able to draw on her wealth of knowledge during this project and highly recommend her to all other Superprof members.
I’ve known Elisa since our PhD days, and I’ve always admired the passion and expertise she brings to her teaching. She is one of the most competent and dedicated professors of art history one could hope for, with extensive experience at the university level.
Elisa taught my daughter Italian. She was an exceptional teacher and i strongly believed that my daughter learnt many things. I could already tell my daughter's Italian was improving and I really recommend her.
I highly recommend Elisa! She was extremely helpful with my History of Art essay, assisting me with structuring, research, and general techniques. I would definitely recommend her!
Italian conversation with Elisa is always enjoyable, covering a wide-range of different topics in a relaxed and welcoming environment.
She is great at explaining Italian colloquialisms and grasps the common mistakes that English mother-tongue students tend to make!Elisa is a great Italian teacher. I personally focus my classes on conversation but she always give good tips on gramar or vocabolary too. I improved my italian since I started with her! I would recommand her to anyone who want to improve his italian.
Elisa is an excellent teacher, knowledgeable and enthusiastic. She tailors her lessons according to the students' needs, making the learning process easy. I would totally recommend her!
Hi, I had 10 lessons with Elisa before travelling to Italy. It was very useful!
Elisa knows Italian pretty well, and knows how to teach! Also, she thought me a lot about Italians habits and gave me several tips!
She is a very reliable person and I would definitely repeat my experience with her!
