ITALIAN with Native ITALIAN Teacher (bilingual in English) - 10 YEARS EXPERIENCE

From 162 C$ /h

Ciao! I am an Italian teacher, from Milan, but I am bilingual in English and I also speak Spanish and French. My degree in Classics and Linguistics provided me with the tools to develop a teaching method that is ideal for foreign students.

My lessons cover every aspect of the Italian language: grammar, vocabulary, listening, reading, writing and speaking.

For ten years now I have been teaching adults, beginners and advanced, individuals, groups and companies, adapting the classes to the needs of the individual and structuring the teaching around the objectives of the student.

I teach students from all over the world (United States, Argentina, France, Colombia, Latvia, China etc ...); from those who want to learn conversational Italian at a basic level, to those who want to know every nuance of the language to use it in an academic/business environment or simply because they desire to communicate like a native speaker!

Teaching the wonderful Italian language is my passion. Contact me to start a wonderful learning journey together!

**Currently, I only have available spots from 8am to 9pm ITALIAN time - Mondays, Fridays and Sundays.

Extra information

Every mind works differently! This concept is always at the core of my teaching: I believe it is my duty to adapt my classes to the needs of my students. There is no such thing as too many questions, too many “I don’t understand” or “can you repeat, please”: I only consider my mission accomplished once my students have reached their Italian goals.
I think my language is beautiful and that’s why I’ve dedicated my life to studying it and now - for the past 10 years - I have been lucky enough to have the chance to share my passion with many wonderful students from all over the world.

Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

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.

Do you love Italy and would love to travel there? Would like to know more about the culture? My lessons are personalized to your needs and I make sure you don't get overwhelmed by the language, but enjoy the process of learning it! I always add a cultural element to my classes, so it's not just learning grammar, but learning how Italian people actually think and live.
Depending on your preference, I can teach the class fully in Italian or using English or Japanese when necessary.

As an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing.

Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing.
We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis.
We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them.
In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!

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 my time at university, I gave private lessons to Erasmus students in Italy. That experience further strengthened my interest in teaching. For many years, I have been giving individual Italian lessons in Amsterdam and online to students of various levels. Whether you want to learn or improve your Italian, I am happy to help you.
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.

If you answer yes to one or more of these questions:
○ Do you want to learn the basics of Italian, one of the most beautiful languages in the world?
○ Would you like to converse in Italian with a native speaker, improve your oral communication and pronunciation, and learn new commonly used expressions?
○ Are you fascinated by the culture, art, gastronomy or even the history of Italy?
○ Or do you mainly need to revise Italian grammar, improve your written communication or practice conjugation?

So good news, look no further: you've come to the right place!
Dante's language will no longer hold any secrets for you thanks to clear, dynamic and entertaining lessons, adapted to your pace and your personal needs.

- Small games will also be organized: don't they say that it's by having fun that we learn best?
- In addition, classes will be taught primarily in Italian from day one. For me, immersion is the most direct method of learning. However, I will use French, English, or German to clarify any doubts, especially for beginners.
- Having learned many languages myself, I understand the challenges you face and can share with you the techniques that helped me overcome them.
- At the end of each course, you will receive a personalized document containing all my notes and observations to facilitate revision and your learning.

If you are motivated, I can:
- plan homework to help you progress more quickly.
- share authentic material with you in the form of articles, videos, films or podcasts to present and comment on with me during the course.

An expert in Italian culture and literature thanks to my university studies and multilingualism, I offer courses that will help you progress quickly thanks to an effective method.
My classes are structured to allow you to practice conversation (practice Italian through everyday situations), work on grammar in a targeted manner and enrich your vocabulary through the analysis of written or oral documents together.

No, you don't see the unexpected news, here you go!
I look forward to meeting you, see you soon!

In this lesson we will study the past simple( il passato prossimo ) in Italian language and we learn how to form and use it in the daily conversation . It's one of the important objects in the Italian grammar because it's mainly used in daily life

As a native Italian teacher with academic training in languages and experience teaching students of varying levels, I believe it is essential to develop all language skills in a balanced way: speaking, listening comprehension, grammar, vocabulary, reading, and writing, always placing special emphasis on oral communication. My classes combine clear and structured explanations with practical and interactive activities that allow students to apply their newly acquired knowledge from the very beginning. Grammar and vocabulary are taught in context, serving as tools to improve expression and fluency in everyday conversations. I also like to incorporate a playful and creative element through language games, role-playing activities, debates, simulated situations, audiovisual resources, and interactive exercises. In this way, learning becomes a more enjoyable, motivating, and participatory experience, without losing sight of the learning objectives. Each class is tailored to the students' level, pace, interests, and needs, creating a supportive and stimulating environment where making mistakes is seen as part of the learning process. My goal is for each student not only to learn Italian, but to dare to speak it, gain confidence and discover the pleasure of communicating in another language, while also getting closer to Italian culture and customs.

This is a conversation-focused course designed for people who want to learn Italian for travel and socialising.

TEACHING PRINCIPLE: grammar should be an important and ESSENTIAL tool for speaking, but it should not be the main focus of the lesson.
