Teaching Italian in Leuven

Are you interested in Italian culture and language? Are you planning to move to Italy for work, study, travel, volunteering? Then this class is for you! Italy is one of the countries where not that many citizens speak English language, therefore it might be difficult to adapt to locals without knowing Italian, at least basic one. By this class I would like to immerse you into Basic Italian language and culture. For the teaching purposes, throughout the classes, I will use different highly-rated textbooks of local editions, effective YouTube channels, interesting articles. I will cover main functional areas of Italian grammar and vocabulary within different areas and will make sure that you start speaking since the first class already, since Practice Makes Perfect and Italian is not so difficult as it may seem at first! The goals, needs, expectations will be discussed in person with every student and adapted towards personality. The program and classes content will also depend on the prior mentioned factors. Feel free to contact me for questions and classes.

Hello, I'm Gemma, I'm 26 and I live in Leuven, Belgium. I am originally from Tuscany, Italy. I'm used to tutoring, usually students, in foreign languages and humanistic subjects. It would be a pleasure for me to teach you Italian in a way that's tailored to your needs. We can start with a format and change it on the go, depending on what suits you best and the specific areas you want to improve. The class will be structured around: grammar, real-life conversations, listening to videos/music, cultural insights, and practical exercises. I know grammar can be very boring, but we'll make it as fun and interactive as possible. I’ll help you build a strong foundation or refine your advanced skills. I hope I'll get to work with you!

Want to learn the language "del bel paese là dove 'l sì suona?" (Dante, La Divina Commedia, Inferno, canto XXXIII)? Crave to go deeper into the world of Boccaccio, Machiavelli, Ariosto, D'Annunzio and many others? Long to be guided into the knowledge of the sweet sounding culture, society and lifestyle of La Dolce Vita? Then I am the man! I am a cum-laude, international Master graduate with a Bachelor in literature from the University of Bologna, the most prestigious in Italy and one of the most ancient in the whole world. Plus, I possess the official diploma for teaching at Italian high schools. Ergo, I am ready to plan how with you to become "un Italiano vero", either through grammar study, literature explorations, informal conversations or a good mix of them all! I am well equipped to gradually introduce you, step by step, to an all-Italian learning experience, through English, French and some words of Dutch too. Absolute beginners, intermediate ad advanced Italy lovers, feel free to get in touch! Ciao!

Hello everyone! I hold a doctorate in Italian, have been teaching Italian for 5 years and hold a CELTA teaching qualification. I've been preparing students for the A-Levels and GCSE (language + literature). I can prepare you for specific examinations, language lessons in general or teach you Italian for business. The lessons are for everyone, whatever their age or level (children to adults). I will make sure that you discover the Italian culture through the lessons, learn the correct pronunciation and of course learn some grammar. I am open to your needs and can speak a few languages to make sure you understand fully the lessons (of course, we’ll try to use mostly Italian in all our lessons depending on your level). I can’t wait to meet my new students! 😊

Passionate about books and films, I love teaching because it allows me to come into contact with other cultures and other stories, in a reciprocal and very enriching exchange. In my classes I am as precise, organized and professional as I am creative and attentive, adapting my method and tools to the other person according to their preferred learning channel and their inclinations and passions.
