About Iacopo
Do you think ones, once and one's all sound the same? Don't hear the difference between night rates and nitrates? Then read on! I'm a language trainer and have experience developing the workforce of Fortune 500 companies. I received training in articulatory phonetics and phonology from Oxford University. Together, you and I can work to identify areas of weakness in your pronunciation and find strategies to minimize the chances of ambiguity and misunderstanding. Remember: listening and speaking are sides of the same coin so you will improve in two areas with only one effort. This summer, improve your English in 15 hours.

Ideally, the course is 15 hours long (not consecutive) and covers different topics based on your level. Below are three levels you may fall into and the topics you will cover:
- ELEMENTARY/LOWER-INT: segments (individual sounds), clusters (combined sounds), syllable stress (accent), excursions (tonal excursions), sentence stress (sentence intonation).
- INTERMEDIATE/UPPER-INT: minimal pairs (contrastive segments), word stress, sentence stress, joined words, lenition, conversation tools (emphasis, self-correction, contrastive stress), tones.
- UPPER-INT/ADVANCED: excursions, rhoticism (use of /r/), joined words, stress shifting, slow vs. fast speech, organizing information, conversation tools (tails, clefts, contrasting, attitude words, conversation management), formal situations and prepared speeches (tones, tone units and steps).
Not sure which level you fall into? Write to me and let's find out together. Important to note that, to be useful, the concepts discussed require at least A2 level English language skills.

My husband and I were both US Soldiers working in Vicenza and were looking for a bilingual SAT tutor for our 17-year-old daughter while in Italy. She needed someone to help her out with her Reading and Writing/Language score which was still too low for the college she wanted to go to. We hired Iacopo because of his background and couldn't have made a better choice. He's obviously very experienced and was able to break through with my daughter and help her in an effort to raise her Reading and Writing score on the SAT and ACT. He gave her practical pointers and showed her ways to stop overthinking some of the questions. He's a dependable, meticulous and knowledgable teacher who almost immediately understood my daughter's weaknesses and adjusted the lessons accordingly. The training has helped tremendously as my daughter's scores have improved significantly.
Iacopo è diventato la mia figura di riferimento per qualsiasi problema con la lingua inglese. Mi ha permesso di passare IELTS per entrare a LSE e da lì in poi ha tradotto documenti e aiutato la mia organizzazione a comunicare con partner in Europa. Tutti sono rimasti positivamente sorpresi dalla sua preparazione e professionalità. Ciao Iacopo!
Ho sostenuto alcune lezioni con Iacopo in vista della preparazione all'IELTS.
Grazie ai suoi preziosi consigli e suggerimenti, sono riuscito a conseguire una performance al di sopra delle mie aspettative. Per il superamento positivo dell'IELTS, infatti,a mio parere non è sufficiente la sola preparazione personale accompagnata ad un impegno costante, ma è necessaria soprattutto la supervisione di un insegnante qualificato che sia in grado di fornire feedback sulle singole prove e nella scelta dei materiali di studio. Iacopo mi è stato di grande aiuto per dare una marcia in più alla mia preparazione.Iacopo è paziente, ha una grande expertise, sa bene condurre una lezione e il ritmo della stessa.
