      Tiziano, more than a teacher Hi everyone. My name is Tiziano. I’m an Italian teacher and native speaker. I have been teaching Italian with great passion for more than 15 years. I have had over a thousand students from all corners of the world. I also speak Russian and English fluently.

      Why choose Tiziano F.
      "I have been learning with Tiziano for a month. Since I have some difficulties with conversation, we focused mostly on this part. Therefore, we speak only in Italian during our classes, also if I don't understand a word, he always tries to explain it in a different way. It really helps me familiarize with the language. Every time he pays attention to my pronunciation and grammar and expounds the principles when needed. Last time I also asked if we can add a new activity- the extra home exercises and he met my needs. He is very patient, professional and our lessons are never boring but always chilled and fun. I definetelly recomend Tiziano as a teacher!"
