I am a doctoral student at the Pontifical University of St. Thomas Aquinas in Rome. I write from my home in Woodside. I have many years of experience tutoring and teaching at all levels, including many years teaching Latin, Italian, and Spanish to children.

I love sharing my passion for Italian language and culture! I have lived in Italy for six years of my life, and I feel so grateful to know and love the land of my ancestors. I desire to help as many people as possible to grow in knowledge and love of Italianità!

I am blessed with fluency in Italian, Spanish, and Latin. I am able to help my students connect new words with known objects, allowing them to discover language intuitively. I also believe very much in connecting the study of language with an appreciation of travel and culture. For me, studying Italian is like taking a trip to Italy in my mind!

I have published many articles in my career, and I love to express myself in speaking and writing. I am passionate about language and the word, and I love to read. I desire to instill a similar passion in my students.

Please be in contact to begin exploring the amazing world of Italian language and culture! I am eager to schedule lessons and help you to fall in love with Bella Italia.

Very knowledgeable

Knowledgeable about statistics and baseball. Very patient. Helped organize the paper, and also brought different perspective of what was needed. Joseph is very good.

Jared, 1 lesson with Joseph

Knowledgeable, patient, intellectual, professional

Joseph has been helping our son with organizational skills and it's going wonderfully. His grades are better and he is less stressed-largely because we are able to stay out as parents because we know he is addressing his challenges with Joseph. It's allowing our son to feel more independent, confident and take more personal responsibility.

Fantastic tutor

Joseph is patient, fun and encouraging. His knowledge of many languages helps out context around words which makes it easier to remember.
