Livia Montalesi

Hello! I am a Clinical Psychologist with a strong cognitive-behavioural orientation and extensive experience in tutoring both Psychology and the Italian language. Over the years, I have worked with students of all ages, including those with specific learning difficulties (DSA), which has given me valuable experience in designing lessons that are both personalized and effective, even in situations that can be challenging for learning. This experience has honed my ability to break down complex concepts into clear, manageable steps and to adapt my teaching methods to each student’s unique needs and learning style.

In Psychology tutoring, I support students in understanding complex theories, preparing for exams, and developing critical thinking skills, always fostering confidence, curiosity, and engagement. My approach combines evidence-based methods with empathy and encouragement, ensuring that students feel supported while achieving their academic goals.

When teaching Italian, I integrate language fundamentals with cultural insights, creating lessons that are interactive, practical, and tailored to the student’s level. Whether the goal is to improve conversation, grammar, or academic writing, I focus on building skills progressively while making learning enjoyable and relevant.

I am passionate about helping students succeed, not only academically but also in developing self-confidence and independent learning strategies. My lessons are structured, engaging, and adaptable, and I take pride in seeing students gain both knowledge and motivation. If you are looking for a tutor who can provide personalized, supportive, and effective lessons in Psychology or Italian, I would be delighted to work with you and help you reach your goals. Can't wait!
