Italian as a foreign language - Impara l ́italiano divertendoti

From 49.83 C$ /h

Hi! I’m an Italian tutor with over 10 years of experience teaching the language. I speak English, French, Spanish, Portuguese, and German fluently, which allows me to use a contrastive approach in my lessons. This means I can help you understand Italian by comparing it with your native language, making the learning process clearer and more effective.

I’ve taught students of all levels, and I focus on helping you progress at your own pace. My lessons are designed to be practical and focused on achieving real results, whether you're just starting or want to improve your skills.

I also have experience teaching at the Istituto Italiano di Cultura in São Paulo, Brazil, where I worked for several years. In addition, I’ve participated in professional development courses at Ca’ Foscari University of Venice, where I deepened my knowledge of cooperative learning and online language teaching methods.

If you’re interested in learning Italian, I’d be happy to help!

- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living between Pisa and Rome. I have 10 years of teaching experience. I am very patient and I love to make a relaxed and friendly class environment. I have qualifications and experience teaching at different levels and in different contexts. I can help the student to improve the oral, written, and comprehension skills. Most important is that each course is based on the needs, interests, and availability of the student. I can offer students private accommodation in Pisa, a comfortable private apartment in the historic center of the city, a short walk from my home.

- The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and putting the focus on the functional aspect of the language. For beginners, I usually follow a specific program, I prepare a course, and for each lesson, I send students the files that I scan from the various books. Also, the lessons can be essentially developed as conversations on specific subjects.

The classes are tailored to suit your individual level, needs, and goals. Depending on you, we will use textbooks, online tools, or articles among others.

My approach encompasses various aspects such as conversation, vocabulary, grammar, Italian culture, or test preparation.

👋🏼 Hello! I'm Francesca. Do you want to learn or improve your Italian?
No problem, more than 300 students have studied with me and learned while having fun. I started teaching at 19 thanks to the director of my high school and I have more than 15 years of experience, in Italy and abroad, all over the world thanks to the internet.
I offer online Italian courses for all levels, from absolute beginners to advanced learners, i.e., C2. I always have quality reference books to recommend to students.
My classes are highly personalized and tailored to the specific needs of each student. I guarantee quality because I put a lot of passion and care into everything I do, trying not to overlook the details.

🚀 During the lessons, I will help you learn the basics of general Italian, paying attention to pronunciation and intonation while reading. I am always attentive to the needs of the students and ready to tailor my lessons. My lessons are an investment for the present and the future because they are prepared with passion, a lot of experience, and dedication 🧡.

🌟 If you are a beginner, don't worry because I take great care to make you feel comfortable.

➡️ I work on different levels: conversation on different topics, grammar, reading, writing, dictation and games (role-playing games in which the student can test himself by communicating in a natural and practical way with the teacher, as in real life).
In addition, preparation for official language certificates (CELI, CILS, PLIDA), the Swiss maturity exam, apprenticeship as a commercial employee CFC and tailor-made courses in a certain professional field.
➡️ All levels: A1-C2

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 !!

Hi, I'm Paola and I'm a graduate in Italian Literature and I also have a master's degree in Teaching Italian to Foreigners.
During the university period I gave private lessons to erasmus students in Italy and now I give individual Italian lessons in Amsterdam and online.
I use a book that I integrate with different materials. Conversation is very important, but so is listening and understanding a text.
The price for 2 people is higher of course, so send mj a message for more information.

A presto!

If you wish to brush up your Italian, resume a past series of lessons, or simply start from scratch learning Italian, this is the right lesson for you! I like to personalize each class/course according to the needs and goals of my students. My classes are focused on improving the student's communication skills. At beginner and lower intermediate levels, I prefer using a text book/ student book in the first part of the class. I usually use "Nuovissimo Progetto Italiano" and "Arrivederci" by Edilingua, or "Nuovo Espresso" and "Dieci" by Alma Publishing. For the second part of the lesson, I create engaging contents using original videos, press articles, extracts from blogs and social media, literary texts. If the students do not feel comfortable using Italian from scratch, I can switch to English, German, or Dutch. The course fee includes the correction of home assignments.

Italian is one of the most beautiful language in the whole world; and what’s better than learning it from an Italian girl without having to move from your couch? Absolutely nothing. I’m Lara and I’m a 23 years old student in Paris. I’d love to introduce you to this language via webcam online.
I speak English very fluently as well and I’m also nice and used to be around children, if you need lessons for your younger son or daughter.

I offer Italian lessons for adults using a specific, very lively and effective method that will allow you to understand, read books in Italian, watch films in the original version and above all to express yourself quickly, with a solid grammatical foundation, in everyday life, but also to have rich conversations with your interlocutors.
Possibility of face-to-face or video lessons, at your convenience, knowing that my video lessons are just as interactive and lively as in person.

Ciao! I'm here to help you learn and enjoy Italian! 🇮🇹

Italian is a beautiful and expressive language, perfect for travel, culture, music, food—and connecting with people around the world. Whether you're just starting out or looking to improve, I’m here to guide you on your Italian journey.

I offer personalized lessons for all ages and levels:

🧒 Children: Help with homework, basic grammar, pronunciation, and school support
🧑‍🎓 Teens & Adults: Improve grammar, expand vocabulary, and build confidence in speaking through practical conversation and engaging topics
If you're a beginner, we’ll start with the basics—useful words and phrases, sentence structure, and pronunciation—so you can understand and use Italian from the start.

If you already speak some Italian, we’ll focus on conversation, fluency, and grammar practice tailored to your interests and goals—whether it’s preparing for a trip to Italy, passing an exam, or simply enjoying the language more confidently.

Let’s make learning Italian fun, engaging, and effective. I can't wait to meet you and help you reach your language goals!

My name is Lucía, and I have a degree in Modern Languages, Culture, and Communication. I lived and traveled in Italy for several years and I work as a language and art teacher.

I offer Italian conversation classes for people who already have some background knowledge and want to speak more fluently, enjoyably, and confidently.

The conversation arises from live materials and the student's area of interest:
✅Images, painting and art
✅Excerpts from literature
✅Italian music and cinema
✅Culture, travel and daily life
✅Topics of personal interest

The approach is organic, relaxed, and personalized:
✅Vocabulary in context
✅ Pronunciation work
✅Seeking naturalness and expressiveness when speaking
✅Helpful corrections

Ideal for:
✅Levels A2–C1
✅Lovers of art and culture.
✅For anyone who wants to learn without stress, but combining rigor with enjoyment and Italian culture.

Shall we begin? 😄

Do you want to learn Italian starting from scratch? Do you need to improve your knowledge and have a good-quality conversation? Do you need someone who can finally teach you the differences between "congiuntivo" and "condizionale"? Or you are maybe planning a trip to Italy, and you are in search of someone who can help you deal with daily situations?
In any case, you are welcome to my classes!

Ciao! My name is Francesca, and I am a native Italian speaker with several years of experience teaching teenagers and adults. Whether you are learning Italian for travel, work, studies, or simply for pleasure, I can help you speak confidently and naturally.

Being a mother-tongue Italian means you will not only learn correct grammar, but also real, everyday Italian—the kind people actually use in conversations, movies, and daily life. I focus on pronunciation, fluency, and understanding how the language truly works, not just memorizing rules.

I have experience tutoring:
- Teenagers, supporting school programs and exams
- Adults, from beginners to advanced learners, including conversation and professional Italian

My lessons are always personalized. I adapt to your level, your goals, and your learning style. Some students want to speak for travel, others for work or relocation, and others simply for the joy of learning a beautiful language—and I build each lesson around that.
