The secret is preparing the dough in advance and let it rise slowly.
It can be done in a regular oven with great results, if you begin cooking it in a pan and transfer it on the preheated oven on the higher shelf, when the underside has browned enough.

For a dough (250gr flour = 2 pizza) you can either use 1gr of freash yeast and let it rest covered in the fridge for 24h (best digeribility) taking it out one hour before you need it, or you can prepare the dough in the morning with 3gr of fresh yeast and let it rest outside until the moment you need it.

When you are ready, shape the pizza, put it on the pan and add tomato and topping and begin heating at medium heat. Check the browning progress when the underside solidifies.
The moment it appeases you move the pizza to the preheated oven (245°C or grill) on the upper layer.
Don't be afraid if the mozzarella boils, that will take care of the excess water.
When it's browned to your tastes take it out and eat it.

I can give you more specific instructions on the dough and cooking if you need, but making pizzas is really easy once you get the basic tricks.

This is what a pizza is supposed to look like.
