Want to brush up your Italian - is it a family visit, a business trip... or just a holiday? Use this experienced Italian teacher for some fun, communicative sessions!

Richard is a very enthusiastic and thorough Italian teacher who not only corrects my mistakes and ensures that I'm able to correct them myself, but also teaches me in a way that suits me in terms of pacing and my needs.

Ever since I started to learn with him I've grown more confident with the language and have had a lot of fun using what I've learnt with him in real situations.

Grazie mille, Richard

Richard taught me Italian for two years. The content of the online lessons was always appropriate for my learning needs, practical, and good fun. He particularly helped me with my pronunciation of the Italian language.

I would recommend Richard as I found him reliable, knowledgeable, and always well-prepared for sessions.

I had the opportunity to meet Richard during a three-week study abroad program in Scotland. My first lesson with him was surprising from the very start: he was a foreigner who could pronounce my Italian name perfectly. Over time, we discovered Richard’s extensive experience in Italy, which allowed him to master my native language.

​The fact that he possesses flawless pronunciation in both Italian and English, backed by a deep and solid understanding of grammar, makes him one of the best language teachers I have ever met. His teaching methods combine traditional lectures and exercises with more 'unconventional' approaches—such as a presentation on a Scottish city. This pushed us to research in English and create a high-quality presentation, culminating in the public speaking phase. This stage is often undervalued but is actually fundamental, especially in the professional world.

​Thanks to Richard, I didn't just improve my English; I also acquired vital new skills, such as public speaking. I highly recommend taking lessons with him.

I met Richard three summers ago during a summer program at the University of Stirling (Scotland, UK). Richard is one of the best teachers I’ve ever had. I especially benefited from his pronunciation and writing tips. I’m currently in Cambridge (US), at one of the best colleges in the country, and I think my hours with Richard helped me get here!

"I have worked in language-teaching with Richard and he has a wealth of experience. His lessons are packed full of useful strategies for improving students' language skills. He is very communicative and his pronunciation tips are fantastic!"

I've known Richard as an English Teacher for several years and he has always been professional and thorough in his approach. His lessons are really communicative and great fun and he is a really positive and inspiring instructor. With Richard, you know you'll improve all your language skills!

Richard has a wealth of experience as a teacher of English and Italian. He's engaging, entertaining and extremely knowledgeable. My niece has learnt so much while studying with him. Would wholeheartedly recommend him.
