About
My name is Anna, and I am from Bologna (Italy); I am an experienced and fully qualified German, Italian and English as a Foreign Language tutor with over 25 years’ teaching experience. I have a Masters in Foreign Languages (English, German and Italian) both from the University of Eichstätt (Bavaria, Germany) and the University of Bologna (Italy). I did my PGCE degree at Reading University, England. I am an ex-Grammar School teacher, and in the last 15 years, I have also been a Cambridge University and Pearson German and Italian assessor and moderator.
I have taught and tutored many students of different abilities and of all ages and backgrounds, ranging from business people, holiday makers, retired teachers, to students starting to learn these languages to GCSE/A Level exams and university entries.
My approach to tutoring is friendly, relaxed and focused. I always tailor my lessons around the students' individual needs and objectives, and I help my students develop their confidence and achieve their full potential. Furthermore, I aim to make learning any of these three languages a rewarding, enjoyable and fun experience. All of my GCSE and A-Level students always achieved very good grades in their exams.
I tutor in the daytime, afternoons, evenings and at the weekend. I mainly teach online using Microsoft Teams, and lessons have been very rewarding and successful. I also tutored home-schooled students and am happy to offer a special deal if you book multiple sessions a week with me or one-month lessons in advance. Please contact me to check availability.

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Mrs Anna D.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.
How we verify these
Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:
- Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
- Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.
The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

Anna is without exaggerating a fantastic Italian teacher, native mother tongue and with outstanding teaching skills; she is the an absolute asset for anyone wanting to learn Italian. I have no doubts my daughter will score very highly in her Italian A-Level exam.
Mrs Anna D. replied
Grazie tante per quello che hai scritto. Non è difficile essere una brava insegnante se si ha un’alunna brava ed interessata come tua figlia! Fossero tutti così gli alunni - sarebbe semplice insegnare. Anna

Abby
Anna is enthusiastic and is making learning fun. The most helpful thing is that she teaches lots of real life and colloquial stuff as well as textbook material which is really useful when you have to do practical things in Italian.
Mrs Anna D. replied
Many thanks Abby for your feedback! I really enjoy teaching you! You are a very committed fast learner and I am pleased you love my language and country so much. Anna

Anna tutored our son for his GCSE German after we contacted her with concerns with his mock result. Anna amazingly turned his predicted grade 5 into a grade 9! Anna has high expectations, is very thorough and reliable . She was totally committed to ensuring our son was on track for a top grade. Anna is a first class tutor and we would highly recommend her.
Mrs Anna D. replied
Thank you so much for your lovely comment, Frances. Many thanks for backing me up during Oscar’s preparation.

Anna prepared my eldest son for GCSE Italian last year. He has thoroughly enjoyed the lessons with her and achieved a great result, getting a 9. I have been very impressed by Anna’s teaching method. My son had a clear idea of what he needed to learn, as Anna explained the structure of the exam and what was expected very clearly. This meant he could focus on what was really important and felt confident about his skills and knowledge at the time of the exam (which he took in year 10). Anna has a lot of experience with secondary level education, she is also very well organized and approachable. My son developed a very good relationship with her and I know she will be a fantastic guide if he were to decide to take Italian for his A-levels.
Mrs Anna D. replied
Many thanks Sean for your great review. Luca is a very studious teenager and it was a real pleasure to teach him. He worked really hard.

Anna tutored my daughter for 1 year in Italian at A level. Her predicted grade was a C. After a year with Anna she achieved a grade A. Highly recommended. Thank you.
