Tutor Bio
Hi! I'm Matteo, I'm a certified Italian teacher.
First, I graduated from the University of Siena in "Languages for the intercultural communication" (Spanish/English), then, by attending a 1 academic year-Master (DITALS) I majored in Teaching Italian L2.
Few weeks ago (march 2025) I also obtained the CELI-examiner certificate to test whoever wants to certificate his/her italian by taking the CELI certificate.
During the last two years I've been teaching Italian to a wide variety of students (in presence and online), mainly university students, adults, seniors and immigrants from Morocco, Bangladesh and Sri Lanka.
Right now I work as a online freelance for a school based in Florence while cooworking in Seville, Spain, as an assistant conversation teacher at the Dante Alighieri Society, on the most famous italian language school-chain in the world.
Degrees and Certificates
- Degrees: BA "Languages for intercultural communication"; Master DITALS (specific to teach italian L2)
- Certications: Ditals I; Ditals II; CELI-examiner certificate

Besides the languages you teach, do you speak or study any other languages?
Yep, I speak both English and Spanish at an advanced level (well, I cannot perfectly understand every accent or idiom, but I try and that's the secret to learn!)
-
What is your favorite dish from your hometown? If you no longer live there is there a good local restaurant that serves it?
That's hard...I'm Italian ;) My favourite dish, the one I would ask if it were my last dish ever, would be "spaghetti alla carbonara" (the original recipe!). It's not exactly from my hometown but nevermind!
-
What are your interests outside of teaching at Strommen?
Mmm let me see, I'd say: reading books about '900 history, listening to some chill music while sipping a beer, cooking something special (sometimes), hiking (not necessarily in this order!)
-
What is your favorite word in your language and why?
Scintilla! (Spark) There isn't a specific reason, it sounds well in Italian (if correctly pronounced ofc).
-
What do you consider your hometown? Why do you love it?
Hard question! Actually I don't have one, I tend to figure out the best in any place I live/visit. I'm kind of a nomad guy.
