Ciao a tutti e benvenuti! My name is Stefano Santosuosso and am a qualified Italian tutor and translator, director of Italian Services.

I am based in Reading, Berkshire. My clients call me ‘Il Maestro’: I am sure they make fun of me, but I liked it so much the first time I heard it that it is now part of my brand. 

I breathe Italian: after my BA and Masters in Italy, I moved to England to pursue a PhD in Italian. I am currently a Lecturer in Italian Studies at the University of Reading and a certified Kahoot online teacher. I am also Member of the Institute of Translation and Interpreting and my translations are recognised by the Italian Consulate and all public bodies.

I can feel your pain: finding an Italian tutor or translator who, at the same time, is qualified, affordable, and caring is NOT easy. That’s why I never rely on others for my Italian language services: I like to keep my Italian classes small, and I don’t take up all the translation and transcriptions jobs I get offered if I cannot give my best.

You are not simply a number to me. And your needs, your urgency, your struggles are mine, too.
