About me

I am a German and Italian teacher with a wide international experience. I worked at university as a lecturer for 7 years and since 2018 I have been a professional German, Italian and Hebrew teacher at all levels.

Furthermore, I am a GCSE & A level Expert. For three years, I’ve been preparing pupils for the most important GCSE (National 5)/A-Level (Higher) boards, as AQA, EDEXCEL, SQA etc.

Moreover, I’ve been working with professionals to reach their goals, for further qualifications or just for passion. I can be quite flexible with my schedule too; therefore, I can accommodate (almost!) every need of the busiest employees!

As each person learns in their own way, I provide tailored lesson plans to meet individual wishes. I work at my student's own pace, as I don’t have a fixed and rigid method to achieve knowledge (because it does not exist!).

The first lesson normally is a quick assessment of the state of the art. Through chatting and reading a short text, I can easily infer the level we start from. This process is very useful because it allows me to draft a learning plan, setting some *milestones* my students can/will achieve (which will be reviewed regularly). This is especially important for GCSE/A-Level pupils.

Setting goals encourages and motivates, and work as a stimulus to do learn in a very cost-effective and productive way. Of course, I do provide my students with regular feedback, and I am with them in every step of their learning journey. I set homework and I mark what my students email to me.

Normally, I split a lesson into three parts, designed to complement each other:
1) speaking and listening;
2) grammar;
3) reading.

Andrea is a wonderful and enthusiastic teacher who has a fantastic ability to connect with his students immediately. Always professional, well prepared, and reliable, he takes time to communicate and complete feedback after each lesson. He is without doubt the best teacher I've ever had. Highly recommended!

Andrea is an absolutely fantastic German tutor. His lessons have provided much-needed structure to my learning. He has put great care and effort into tailoring his teaching for my specific needs and style of learning. He is patient, understanding, and makes learning fun. He has also made me feel very comfortable since our first lesson and has given me the confidence to start speaking German. I highly recommend Andrea.
