Turn Your Child's Passion for Italian into a Real Advantage
Learning Italian is about so much more than holidays. It's a skill that develops your child's communication, sharpens their analytical thinking, and gives them a genuine appreciation for another culture. For ambitious students, fluency in a less common language is a fantastic way to stand out in competitive university applications. It demonstrates curiosity, discipline, and a global perspective – qualities that top institutions value highly.

Valentina C
Experienced Italian Tutor Italian
I have taught Italian for over twenty years to adults and children, individuals and groups, privately as well as in educational and corporate settings, from Beginner level to Conversation. I have also worked as a translator from English into Italian and from Italian into English. I have studied many languages, including Spanish, German, Arabic, Russian, Latin and Ancient Greek, as well as linguistics. This has helped me to gain an understanding of how languages work and it has sparked a deep interest in etymology. I find it fascinating to discover how much Latin is still alive in English words...

Passionate teacher of Italian
Hi / Ciao,First of all may I thank you for checking my profile. Am I the tutor for you?My name is Remo and I grew up in Cardiff in a very Italian setting. As both parents were Italian, I have had the wonderful privilege of experiencing both unique cultures of Italian and English.At home Iwas immersed in a little Italian bubblebut once outside I had the benefit ofBritish / Welsh traditions and life styles. I see this as a very fortunate upbringing that now really helps me to understand both wonderful cultures when teaching either Italian or English. I can relate to both. My career has lead to many...

Gabriele C
Gabriele is an amazing tutor.
I have been studying Italian with him for the last 6 months and I have learnt so much. My speaking, writing and grammar has improved and he always ensures he explains things in detail.
Every lesson is very thorough and well planned, and we go through things step by step, to ensure I understand the vocabulary and the conjugation of words.
When Gabriele notices that I don’t understand something, we will revise it together until I get it correct. Not only are we practising vocabulary and grammar, but also real life scenarios and conversational pieces which I will use.
Overall Gabriele has been an exceptional tutor and I would recommend anyone to book with Gabriele!

Louisa T
I’ve been learning Italian with Louisa and I honestly couldn’t ask for a better tutor. She’s patient, enthusiastic, and incredibly good at tailoring lessons to my pace and interests. Whether we’re focusing on travel phrases, grammar, or pronunciation, Louisa always makes the sessions engaging and practical.
She has a real gift for explaining things clearly, and her encouragement makes even the trickier parts of the language feel achievable. I especially appreciate how she brings Italian culture into the lessons—it makes learning so much more enjoyable and meaningful.
Thanks to Louisa, I’m feeling more confident every week and actually looking forward to using my Italian on my upcoming trip. I highly recommend her to anyone wanting to learn Italian in a relaxed, friendly, and effective way. Grazie mille, Louisa!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Queen Mary's College. Can a tutor help them prepare?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the high standards of excellent colleges like QMC. They can help build a strong academic foundation in Italian, making it a standout part of your child's profile and preparing them for the rigours of A-Level study.
Since Italian isn't widely taught in Basingstoke schools, can a tutor cover a full qualification?
Yes, this is a very common reason parents come to us. Our expert Italian tutors can create a structured learning plan to cover an entire GCSE or A-Level curriculum, ensuring your child doesn't miss out on the opportunity to gain a formal qualification in a subject they love.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Italian tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right Italian tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience on their profile. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and ensure they're a great match.
How much does online Italian tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has undergone a thorough background check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one lessons create a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of being judged by their peers. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps them overcome challenges, which builds their self-belief and makes learning enjoyable.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. It’s a secure and effective way for your child to learn from home.
How long are the lessons and how often should they happen?
Lessons are typically an hour long. Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works best for your child and their goals with your chosen tutor.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going and review lesson recordings together in your account.
Do you offer tutoring for hobbies too, like learning an instrument or coding?
Yes, we do! While we have thousands of academic tutors, we also have experts who can help your child learn skills like guitar, piano, coding, or even public speaking. It's all about helping them pursue their passions.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
All you need is a laptop or desktop computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to install.
