I am a native speaker, providing professional customized tutoring with guaranteed results (Age 14 - adult). Translator and author. I hold a degree in Italian Language, History and Culture (Pisa University - ITALY), a Master's Degree in Project Management (George Washington University) and a B.A. in Electrical Engineering (Istituto Tecnico Industriale A. Righi ITALY). I use a creative and effective approach working with the student to pinpoint exactly how to master the subject. I was born in Italy and moved to the States 21 years ago. I have been teaching Italian for many years to students of different ages and for various scopes, such as: to get students up to speed in order to spend a university semester in Italy, to introduce middle and high school kids to a new language, to get up to speed adults who want to gain a comfortable knowledge when they travel to Italy or to university students who want to become proficient in order to attend an Italian University. I taught Italian also at Technical Colleges, Community Education and Concordia Language Camp.

Italian

Italian

I have been teaching Italian for more than 10 years at the Community Education at different levels, from beginners to conversation. I taught also classes at the RCTC (Rochester Community & Technical College), at the Concordia College Language and at the Italian Cultural Center in Minneapolis. My deep knowledge of the Italian and American culture combined with the academic studies allows me to dive into the uncountable interpretations and shades that a language carries and that eventually I share with my students.

Challenging. Tailored. FUN.

Carlo assesses your strengths and weaknesses right off the bat, which means he doesn't drag you through things you already know. He uses an intuitive approach that's fun and engaging, and he has a great sense of humor, yet he also is very precise in his corrections of grammar, of spelling, of pronunciation, of cultural effects on the language. He has pointed me to great resources, and he explains language usage concepts in ways that make sense. (He also explains why they're so hard for English speakers to "get", which helps me feel a bit less dense!) So far: learning and laughter in every lesson! And the homework keeps it going throughout the week. Grazie mille, Carlo!

Grazie Carol, nell'insegnamento c'e' sempre reciprocita', non ci sono bravi insegnanti senza bravi e commessi studenti!

Very knowledgable and patient tutor

We worked on four Italian tenses. The present perfect, past, future and conditional. Carlo wrote a sentence and I translated in Italian. This is very helpful for me as the tenses can be very confusing.

Knowledgeable, patient, fun tutor

Carlo is fantastic! He is precise and specific in what he teaches. He is an excellent teacher who tailors his lessons to his students. He is a good listener and is encouraging, while also setting a high bar for his students. I highly recommend him!

Very knowledgeable

Carlo has a deep understanding of correct forms of Italian and English language. He moves at an appropriate speed to foster good learning. It has definitely made an impact in our ability to converse while traveling in Italy.

Maria, 4 lessons with Carlo

Enjoyable Learning

Carlo is very good at explaining concepts and gives good examples regarding the subject matter he is covering. I learned a lot of new things that will help my pronunciation and understanding of the language.

Bill, 22 lessons with Carlo

Eccellente Italian Tutor

Carlo is an excellent professor of the Italian language. He is a native speaker which brings the nuance, proper syntax and modern colloquialism to each lesson. He is patient, interested and flexible with his time. He will not progress until the student masters the previous lesson. You will also have some fun while learning. I highly recommend him.

Michael, 87 lessons with Carlo

Patience

Carlo was very patient, and stressed that I needed to be patient with myself...to slow down. Take time to think and get the right answer rather than rush and get pronounciation wrong.

David, 79 lessons with Carlo

Comprehensive and caring

Carlo makes sure you have the materials and knowledge you need to achieve your lesson goals. He has tutored our family and can adjust to various levels rapidly. He has been able to accommodate our crazy schedule. My middle schooler thinks he is fantastic and wishes he had him as a teacher at school!
