My Italian lessons are personal because each student is different. I offer courses that will allow you to master the language in a few months and get by easily during a trip to Italy. The Italian and French grammars are similar so it will be quite easy for you to learn but like in all languages there are false friends and with me you will find them without too much effort. I don't just give a grammar lesson, which would be boring, but I give you the real spoken language and current Italian life, with its sounds, its words, its contradictions too.

About Me
I have been teaching for many years in Italy and Africa, my students are mainly immigrants and refugees from Africa and Asia. I recently completed a two-year teaching assignment in the province of Viterbo in various centers for refugees and asylum seekers.
In Cameroon, I had a wonderful experience in a private high school where I also had children who were always happy to see me every day also because during the lesson you could play and learn at the same time. Also in Cameroon, I taught at the Italian Center to prepare students to take the B2 level exam necessary for pre-registration in Italian universities and for a study visa. I also organized short seminars on Italian culture at the University of Bamenda.

Hello to you, I am Giovanni in Rome. I have been teaching Italian to foreigners for several years in Italy and Cameroon. My teaching method is based on the communication method, the one that gives better results and active involvement of students in dialogues and role plays that allow interaction between students because, since the beginning of the lessons, I try to have my students express themselves directly
in Italian, even if I sometimes have to translate into English or French, languages that I speak fluently, certain terms that we find in our courses. Of course, I don't limit myself to the grammatical part, but I also try to give indications on Italian society.

Learning Italian is a beautiful experience and I'm glad you want to do it with me.
It is a very different language from English and I have many English-speaking students who learn it with my help and above all with their dedication.
In my classes we will have a basic manual but also many other tools such as videos, newspaper articles, material brought by you that will allow us to have a broader idea of what constitutes the learning of a new language.
I have a lot of experience as a teacher and I look out how you are learning, we all have different ways of learning and there is not a good or bad way , tt's important it's your own tool you trust.
Let's start our new adventure soon!

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.

We begin by assessing your level, goals, and needs. Together, we craft a personalized plan, ensuring that your learning experience is tailored, efficient, and effective. 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 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.
