About Alessio Perry - The Tuscan Tutor

Ciao! I'm Alessio Perry

Born and raised in the picturesque hills of Tuscany. For the first 23 years of my life, Italy was my home, but I now live in the UK.

I am a native Italian from Tuscany with 10+ years of experience helping people learn Italian in a way that feels natural and fun. My lessons go beyond grammar, bringing the culture, history, and spirit of Italy into every session.

Speaking Italian isn't just about words, it's about culture. With my background in history and archaeology, I bring Italy's traditions, art, and heritage into every lesson, making learning more engaging.
