I use the communicative method thus favoring oral expression. Oral comprehension exercises are included in my classes as well as written production. The grammar is presented inductively. The objectives are studied according to the needs of the learner. Essential goal of the course: to have fun! I can help you prepare for your exams (college, high school, university, communication, business, engineering schools, etc.) and/or exams (BAC, BTS, CISL, CELI, etc.).

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.

- 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.

👋🏼 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

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 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.

Italian is not only a language, it’s culture, expression, and communication. I offer structured Italian lessons adapted to each student’s level and goals. With teaching experience across age groups and an internship at a school of Italian for foreigners, I have worked directly with international students and understand how to make Italian clear, logical, and accessible.

Beginner (A1–A2):
- Pronunciation and essential grammar
- Basic conversation
- Everyday vocabulary
- Foundations for reading and writing
- Intermediate (B1–B2)
- Expanding fluency
- Structured grammar improvement
- Conversation practice
- Cultural context and real-life language

Advanced (C1):
- Professional or academic Italian
- Writing refinement
- Presentation skills
- Exam preparation (if needed)
- Teaching Style
- Clear explanations and structured progression
- Strong grammar foundation
- Interactive conversation practice

Adapted to children, teens, and adults

I focus on helping students feel confident and comfortable speaking, while building solid language structure step by step.

My main focus is free conversation and emotional confidence. I love creating a relaxed, safe, and playful space where we can smile, laugh, and enjoy talking together naturally. Language learning, for me, starts with connection — feeling comfortable, welcomed, and free to express yourself without fear of making mistakes. Conversation is at the heart of my lessons. Grammar is only introduced when useful and in a simple, practical way. Most of the time, we talk about real life, emotions, travel, cultures, and whatever is alive for you in that moment. Lessons are co-created and spontaneous, with no rigid structure or traditional classroom feeling. I believe learning is always mutual — I learn from you as much as you learn from me! Music and creativity are an important part of my life. I travel with a ukulele and use music and singing as gentle tools to support pronunciation, rhythm, and self-expression. I’m also deeply connected to art and handmade creation. I practice yoga, meditation, conscious breathing, free and intuitive movement, and dance. These practices help me bring presence, patience, and deep listening into our conversations. I also work with ceremonial cacao and facilitate cacao rituals and workshops, including online spaces. I’m passionate about conscious living, natural skincare and products that respect both our skin and the planet, and mindful nutrition. I mainly follow a vegan lifestyle, with flexibility inspired by travel and cultural experiences. Many students tell me they feel “at home” in my lessons, like talking with a friend. If you’re looking for a warm, human, creative, and non-traditional way to practice a language, I’d love to meet you!

I am Italian and I have over ten years of teaching experience and together we will find the method that suits you.
My approach is based on personalisation: each student has different needs and learning styles, which is why I prepare customized diagrams and explanations.
I place great importance on clarity and organization.
The typical duration is 60 minutes, but it can be adapted to needs.
