Improve your Italian skills by following your interests (i. e. books, TV series, songs)! Online tutor for Italian as a foreign language
I tailor each lesson according to my student needs. I allow for the first 10 minutes to “steam off” in English/Spanish to express requests, needs, doubts and/or clarifications. Then everything is mandatory in Italian! The only exception made is for improving translation skills, upon request. My academic background allows me to trace the etymology of any given word and to easily spot false-firends, enabling a durable memorisation of new vocabulary.
Lessons usually focus on travelling, contemporary issues, specialised vocabulary of one’s own professional area, and practical vocabulary for daily life.
Examples of tasks:
- Preparing and sending an email to book an hotel room / rent a car
- Understanding and analysing brief videos/audios (i.e. Ted Talks, Podcasts) to post comments
- Explaining a recipe
- Summarising a tv show episode/play/book
- Analysing and translating news, crowdfunding campaigns, and essays.

About Me
I am specialised in Gender Studies and Conflict Transformation. Studying and tutoring in a second language (English) while improving my Spanish, French, and Serbian language skills allowed me to gain an ‘outsider’ perspective of mastering English. I can easily spot its limitations as well as its variety of terms available to express oneself.I have been proof-reading theses, essays and written outputs for over 8 years now and I have developed a sharp attention to detail to spot typos and unnecessary repetitions.
I’ve also been employed as a hostess on board for boat tours around the Sorrento and Amalfi Coast. Such experience allowed me to share the myths, history and traditions of my beautiful hometown in Italian, English, French, and Spanish – both for adults and children.
I fully understand how hard it can be to pass an exam in a second language and that's why I love to prepare my students for success. While I might be new on Apprentus, I encourage you to check the reviews I have collected through the years,

I am available to commute (trip paid by the student) to Novi Sad.

Japanese and Italian lessons with course personalisation for all purposesCiao and よろしく! My name's Aaron and I'm a certified foreign language teacher with a knack for both teaching and learning languages. My university degree was in linguistics and foreign language acquisition with a specialisation in Japanese and Spanish, where I had the chance to study abroad in Japan and obtain an N1 proficiency certificate. For the past 4 years I have been living and working in a fully immersive environment in Sicily, Italy.
My teaching method involves using real life and relevant material and encouraging the student to "produce" as much language as possible, always based on the student's needs and learning objectives. I expect my students to take responsibility for their learning as much as I take responsibility for them.
I have had the chance to teach English to people of various ages and in various countries, where I learned how to properly structure lesson plans and courses. As time has gone on, I have found joy in teaching beginner and intermediate level Japanese and Italian and I look forward to teaching to you too!
