Italian Conversation Through Media & Current Affairs

From 56.77 C$ /h

This class is designed for students who want to practice spoken Italian through real conversations about media, news, and contemporary Italian society.
Instead of artificial dialogues, we talk about what Italians actually discuss today: songs, TV shows, social media trends, current events, politics, and cultural debates. Each lesson is structured but flexible, adapting to the student’s level and interests.
My goal is to help students speak more confidently, expand vocabulary, and improve fluency, while also understanding the cultural context behind the language. Corrections are gentle and constructive, focusing on clarity and natural expression rather than perfection.
This is a conversation-based class, but grammar and expressions are explained when needed and always in context.

About Me

I am a Master’s student in Semiotics and Communication with a strong interest in language, culture, and contemporary Italian society.
My teaching style is relaxed, interactive, and culture-based: I believe people learn languages better when they understand how and why a language is used in real life, not only through grammar rules.
In my lessons, we work with songs, media, pop culture, current affairs, and social debates (from Sanremo to politics, from everyday habits to major cultural phenomena) to improve Italian naturally and in context.
I adapt each lesson to the student’s level and interests, keeping them challenged but never overwhelmed.
I enjoy teaching curious students, absolute beginners as well as learners who want to go beyond textbook Italian and understand the country, its culture, and the way people really speak.

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.

I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!
