Learn and improve to speak Italian with a real Florentine
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.

About Me
I'm Gemma and I am passionate about languages and our ability to learn and understand them. My first love is Arabic. I've traveled to Morocco, Egypt, and Tunisia, where I lived for almost seven years and I regularly visit the country for long periods. Here I've been working with Media, tribunals, researchers, NGOs until I discovered that my real vocation is teaching. I deeply believe that education is the key to bettering mankind. I am also a fun of glam rock, folk tales and music.Education
I have a "classical" education. I studied Italian language and linguistics, ancient Greek and Latin. Then, I studied Arabic for seven years obtaining a master in Classical Arabic. However, as I am really passionate about dialects, I specialized in North African Dialects, especially Tunisian. I also have a master degree in International and Intercultural Negotiation and I traveled around North Africa to study in several accredited Arabic Schools for Foreigners. I love teaching Italian to foreigners and I am attending webinars and online classes to deepen my knowledge of innovative ways to teach my mother language online. Recently I also obtained the CEDILS teaching certification from Ca' Foscari University of Venice.Experience / Qualifications

This class is about learning Tunisian Arabic to easily interact with Tunisians. Tunisian Arabic is not the first dialect you hear about when you start to learn Arabic, but it is indeed one of the most fascinating and useful, especially if you are working in Tunisia, your partner is Tunisian or you are into North African social studies.
It occurred to you to be told that Tunisian Arabic has no grammatical or syntactic rules because it's not real Arabic? Well, that's not true! I can reveal you some tips to speak and sound Tunisian even if you don't know anything about Arabic. We will talk, play, watch videos from Tunisian tv programs and learn about language and culture.
I also do transcriptions and translations of documents and videos into French and Italian for academic researchers, journalists, and entrepreneurs.

Learn Italian and learn the language of Petrarca, Dante and BoccaccioWe live in the era of globalization, where the imperative need for language is essential. To explore the world and escape our limitations, in-depth language skills become essential. Mastery of languages thus becomes an essential key to success, opening the door to new opportunities and facilitating communication on a global scale.
Italian, a true emblem of the Renaissance and of art since the end of the medieval age, played a crucial role in the cultural and artistic development in Europe. This language is the vehicle for the innovative ideas that emerged at this time, when humanism flourished, highlighting the rediscovery of classic works, the valorization of knowledge and the development of sciences. Italian, as the language of great thinkers, poets and artists such as Dante, Petrarch and Michelangelo, helped shape the Italian Renaissance and spread its influence across the continent. Today, the historical and artistic richness of the Italian language continues to captivate those seeking to explore the deep roots of creativity and humanist thought.
Learning the Italian language undoubtedly constitutes an enriching immersion in the rich linguistic and cultural panorama of Italy.
Since 2018, my Italian lessons have mainly focused on the cultivation of communicative skills. I actively promote interactive, engaging and practice-oriented approaches to allow my learners to express themselves with ease. This methodology skillfully integrates Italian culture, providing a holistic and captivating experience.

Learning or help in Italian, English, GermanAlways enjoying languages, I grew up in an international culture and school. I indeed lived 6 years in Italy during my childhood and therefore speak fluent Italian. This made it easier for me to learn English (obtaining Cambridge KET level in 6th grade) and German, which I present all three at the baccalaureate. I also learned Spanish on a personal basis by passion for languages!
Having therefore learned four foreign languages myself, I am passionate about this objective and will take great pleasure in helping you achieve it.
This course is therefore open to everyone, for discovery as well as for further study (up to level C2 in Italian, C1 in English and B2 in German). You can learn to understand, speak, read or write this language and progress at your own pace.
Feel free to contact me for more information !

Italian for aspiring Italian lovers, everyone is welcomeA bit about me, I am Cloé, I am half Italian and French but always lived in Florence, Italy, and now study in The Hague.
I miss my home country so I decided to spread "Italianity" by teaching it to whoever wants to learn our beautiful language.
Studying Italian will open a gateway for you onto one of the world's most beautiful languages and one of its richest cultures. Because of the history of the country, Italian is not just the language of Italy but of the world. You'll discover our culture and impress your family by ordering with confidence at an authentic Italian restaurant or directly in Italy.
I'll help you learn the basics of the language or if you already have an advanced level we'll practice speaking skills and more advanced facts about Italy, far from the typical stereotypes.

Highly qualified Italian language Teacher Discover Italy with a Highly Qualified Teacher! Italian Language Lessons Plus Cinema, Art, FashioWho am I?
I am a highly qualified teacher with several years of experience in teaching Italian to foreign students.
I organize courses for children, courses for individuals over 60, and preparation courses for Italian language exams.
I also offer seminars, webinars, and fun activities such as role-playing games and escape rooms to learn Italian while having fun.
**My education and studies**
I hold two degrees and a master’s degree.
My first degree is in Italian Studies, focusing on Theory, Criticism, and Methodology, with a specific path for teaching Italian to foreigners. My second degree is in Modern Philology. I also completed a Master’s in Contemporary Art and Curatorial Practices at the Luiss Business School in Rome.
**What did I do before teaching?**
Before dedicating myself to teaching, which I consider the best job in the world, I worked in the fields of fashion and contemporary art. After obtaining my master's degree, I worked as a curator of contemporary art and fashion exhibitions in important museums in Rome. I also collaborated with film festivals, particularly promoting Italian cinema abroad.
**My teaching philosophy**
I aim to provide my students with all my multidisciplinary knowledge and creativity to offer Italian lessons that include careful grammatical analysis. Beware of those who claim that Italian can be learned without studying grammar: grammar is essential for fully understanding the language system and enables students to become independent right away. Learning grammar is fun and makes learning long-lasting.
My lessons do not only focus on the Italian language, but also include insights into Italian culture, from cinema to fashion, from art to design. I also periodically organize meetings with famous Italian artists, including figures from the world of street art.
Join me for a unique learning experience that will allow you to fully immerse yourself in the Italian language and culture!
I currently teach in three Schools for Foreigners and have experience with students of all levels and all ages, including children ;)
With me, you can also prepare for the state exams to obtain citizenship.
Are you interested in Italian culture beyond the language?
Do you love cinema and want to learn more about the great visionary Italian directors?
Are you passionate about art and want to know more about the Medici, the Renaissance, and contemporary Italian art, and explore icons of Italian design?
Then this course is perfect for you. I offer grammar and conversation lessons enriched with seminars on the Italian cultural scene, role-playing games, and interactive activities.
All teaching materials will be provided by me!
Regardless of your age or level, we’ll achieve great things together! :)

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.

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.
