Yuri B.

Hi there! 😊

I'm Yuri, and I'm from Verbania, by Lake Maggiore!

My passion for teaching has developed unconsciously and spontaneously, both during my years of training new colleagues and while exchanging ideas and knowledge with friends, helping them with topics I'm passionate about. I've always loved sharing what I know: for me, teaching is mutual growth; I help you improve, and I improve too. As for me, I've been exploring the world for about 13 years, trying to see as much as possible and expand my mind. I'm passionate about fitness, Muay Thai, and travel, and I bring energy and a smile to every lesson, which, they say, I never lack! 🥊🌍

I've often been the one responsible for training new people in the workplace, thanks to my ability to adapt to each individual and my creativity in ensuring I develop not just knowledge but especially interest in people. A key detail for me has always been making sure that people understand the concept and can apply it, rather than just memorizing something that will be completely useless to them later.

I've experienced the challenge of learning a language in a foreign country. I know what blocks you, what frustrates you, and what really works. For me, the best lessons are the ones where you forget you're studying. Whether you want Italian for travel, work, or because you love the culture, let's build the course around your goal. First lesson: I understand where you are and where you want to go. From there, you'll learn Italian as it's really used: conversation, context, real situations. From day one, you speak; you don't study.
