Federica is an exceptional Italian teacher who truly cares about your progress. She’s deeply committed to helping you learn, not just during lessons but in how you approach studying overall. What sets her apart is her focus on building the right habits—she doesn’t just teach the language, she helps you develop the discipline and consistency needed to actually retain and use it.

Federica is an excellent Italian tutor who is patient and kind. Federica truly understands exactly what her students need at all steps of the process. Immediately, Federica accurately assess a student’s competency level and customizes an effective course around it and the student’s “real life” schedule.

Had my Italian professors in college been as thoughtful and engaged as Federica, I likely would have paid more attention in class, continued my Italian studies, and been fluent in Italian long before this point in my life. Thankfully, I found Federica now, and she will be the professor to take me to fluency—and will do so quickly. Put down the language apps on your phone, and message Federica instead!

I've been taking Italian lessons with Federica for 1 year now. Aside from being a wonderful person, she is a great teacher. Her list of credentials and degrees is impressive. I like her disciplined teaching style. I’ve done lessons with other teachers in the past and their teaching style was very unorganized. You can tell that Federica has a sincere desire to help her students learn the right way. It has been a pleasant experience and I’m sure that you would feel the same

Federica is my first ever language tutor and I couldn’t have picked anyone better! Federica is an amazing and fun teacher that makes learning enjoyable. I was shocked by how much Italian I could pick up and use after just a little time studying with her!
Her structured lessons make sure I’m always making progress, and she has a wealth of resources and recommendations that keep you interested, immersed and engaged with the language. What I appreciate most is that Federica creates a friendly and relaxed atmosphere where I feel safe to make mistakes, and never feel awkward. She’s really aware of where I need to improve, which has been so helpful in building my confidence.
Thanks to her encouragement, I felt ready to speak and understand Italian on my trips to Florence and Verona. Plus, she’s opened my eyes to a whole new world of Italian history and culture.
Thank you, Federica, for showing me the wonders of the Italian language each week! It’s such a rewarding journey! ️

In addition to having vast knowledge of the Italian language, she is extremely kind and very patient. Each lesson is very well organized, and I always leave knowing exactly what I need to study and review throughout the week to keep progressing. I can’t recommend her lessons enough!

I have weekly lessons with Federica - and had never studied Italian before. She’s been a great teacher - always pushing us to be more ambitious, to improve faster, and to spend as much time as possible speaking Italian, even though we’ve only been doing it a couple of months. Would recommend without hesitation!

Federica is a professional, meticulous and enthusiastic tutor. Her advanced Italian lessons are both enjoyable and challenging. Federica achieves a balance between pushing you to focus on important details whilst encouraging natural conversation.
