Online private lessons in Italian language, culture, and lifestyle. All levels. Master of Arts Leiden University, Ditals I.
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.

I speak Dutch, French, German, Spanish, and a little Portuguese. So I know very well how challenging it can be learning a new language, or improving your language skills!

I am very happy with Silvia's Italian lessons. She explains with patience and enthusiasm and it is noticeable that she has a lot of experience! I can't wait to learn more from her.
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
Very polite and welcoming. I enjoyed the class and the material used.
Enjoyed my lesson with Silvia and I like her interactive learning tools with the white board and books.
Silvia is not only very kind, she's also the best teacher I've had (and I've had a few). You can decide for yourself what part of the language you want to learn more intensively, while she also keeps an eye on the things you may think you know perfectly, but do not. She does this without making you feel bad or insecure, really giving you confidence by positivity.
Since 6 months Silvia teaches me Italian. According to me, she is a very good teacher. Her lessons are structured and she provides professional materials like study books and articles. She is patient and very reliable in keeping appointments. She also invests time in checking homework. I am making real progress. I recommend her to anyone who wants to learn Italian.

Emma
Italian lessons. Italian lessons online or in person.- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living in Rome. I have 10 years 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.
- The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and put 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.
Aaron
Japanese and Italian lessons with course personalisation for all purposesCiao and よろしく! My name's Aaron and I'm a certified foreign language teacher with a knack for both teaching and learning languages. My university degree was in linguistics and foreign language acquisition with a specialisation in Japanese and Spanish, where I had the chance to study abroad in Japan and obtain an N1 proficiency certificate. For the past 4 years I have been living and working in a fully immersive environment in Sicily, Italy.
My teaching method involves using real life and relevant material and encouraging the student to "produce" as much language as possible, always based on the student's needs and learning objectives. I expect my students to take responsibility for their learning as much as I take responsibility for them.
I have had the chance to teach English to people of various ages and in various countries, where I learned how to properly structure lesson plans and courses. As time has gone on, I have found joy in teaching beginner and intermediate level Japanese and Italian and I look forward to teaching to you too!

Italian soprano offers coaching of Italian Pronunciation for singersAs 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!

Giorgia
Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any levelHello 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 !!
