Fun and easy Italian with LINDA

Linda Z.

I’m Linda Zacchi, I’m a native Italian speaker who moved to the Santa Monica area from Brescia - Italy over 8 years ago.
Degree: Master of Arts - Foreign Languages and Literatures Educational Path, Communication Sciences.
I’ve been teaching Italian lessons for almost 6 years and I have a wide range of teaching experience, both individuals and small groups. I’ve developed language programs for adult and for young children. I enjoy teaching students in person and online.
From my background in music and singing, I am very interested in helping those that would like to pronounce with the ease of a native speaker of my language. I enjoy figuring out the best way for each of my student to learn, creating a safe environment for learning and adapting lessons for each unique individual.

When working with students, I develop individualized lesson plans that meet their needs and learning styles. My goal is that every student feels confident about their ability to speak and understand the Italian language and also to understand our culture and our history. I'd love students to fall in love with Italy and with the Italian language (as much as I do).
Lessons include a mix of in-person, online and hands-on situational learning experiences.
Offering private and small group lessons.
Facilitating group conversational practice sessions and cooking classes of family recipes in Italian!
