It shows your child has a great ear for detail, a strong grasp of complex grammar, and the dedication to master a less common subject. Whether they're analysing Italian literature for their A-Levels or building the confidence to speak fluently, these are the skills that help a UCAS application stand out from the crowd and open up exciting opportunities.

I am so happy to have found Dario! There are some people in the world who are born to teach and make learning fun, Dario is absolutely one of them. I am greatly enjoying my lessons and my Italian partner can see the progress I have made already. Within just a few lessons, I have managed to build up my vocabulary and confidence! Dario is encouraging and friendly, and we always have a good laugh which makes my lessons memorable. He quickly assessed my current level and has taken the time to tailor lessons to this, making sure that I am challenged, but not overwhelmed. I cannot recommend language lessons with Dario enough! I am very grateful for his support and look forward to many more hours learning Italian with him. If you decide to book with Dario, you won’t be disappointed!

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!

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 a competitive course at UCL or LSE. Can a tutor help strengthen their Italian grade for their UCAS application?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students aiming for top Russell Group universities. They can focus on the specific skills needed to turn a B into an A or an A into an A*, ensuring their Italian grade strengthens their overall application.
The academic pressure in Islington is intense. How can a tutor help my child manage the stress of aiming for top grades in Italian?
We understand the pressure you and your child are under. A great tutor acts as a mentor, building confidence as well as knowledge. They create a calm, supportive space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement, helping them feel in control and less anxious about their exams.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Italian tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just 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 introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. You can even message them before booking to discuss your child's needs. It’s all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How much does an online Italian tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home, with all lesson materials saved for them to review later.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in Italian?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. One-to-one attention from a patient and encouraging tutor can make a huge difference. By celebrating small wins and explaining things in a way that clicks, they help rebuild your child’s self-belief.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent ones during holidays, whatever works best for you and your child.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview them to ensure they have the right experience. We're very selective – only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform.
How can I track my child's progress?
The best way is to chat with your tutor. They'll be happy to give you regular feedback on how your child is doing, what they've been working on, and what the plan is for future lessons. It’s a team effort.
Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like Italian?
Not at all! While we love helping students with their school work, we also have amazing tutors for hobbies and personal development. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get into coding, or even take up a new craft.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in Italian?
Our tutors come from all walks of life! Many are qualified teachers, experienced examiners, or native Italian speakers. You can read all about their background and experience on their profile to find the perfect person to inspire your child.
