My name is Lorella, and I have a plan for you—especially if you dream of being in Tuscany and chatting with locals in Italian.

I’m here to help you move beyond just “pizza, spaghetti, and mafia” and start having real conversations with real Italians. Since 2004, I’ve been teaching Italian both in person and online, and with over 13,000 lessons under my belt, I can confidently say—I know a thing or two about helping people learn Italian!

I’ve been on the other side too. As a language learner myself, I understand the struggles and the joy that come with learning a new language.

I studied English, German, and French at school, taught myself Spanish, and even gave Arabic a try.

That’s me with some of my students. No, we don’t eat and drink all the time… but hey, sometimes it’s part of the lesson!

From “Mamma Mia” to Fluent!

These snapshots show students near and far—some in Tuscany, others online—all enjoying the journey of learning Italian through laughter, connection, and real conversation.

“I have tried other products that worked fine, but this one is certainly the best of them all. It brings efficiency to a new level of simplicity.”

Fabio from Brazil

“I studied with Lorella in Chianti for two weeks—an unforgettable, hands-on experience. Her lessons combined grammar and real-life practice, helping me reach a conversational level. She’s an amazing teacher!”

Katarina from Toronto

“Lorella’s Italian lessons are the highlight of my week! She's patient, encouraging, and adapts to my needs. I’m now confidently speaking simple Italian—even getting compliments on my accent!”

Mark from Phoenix

“Lorella is everything you’d want in a teacher—clear, patient, and fun to talk with. I’m so glad I found her on online. She’s truly helped me improve my Italian.”
