Italian Lessons for Beginners, High School Students, University Students and Enthusiasts

Do you want to learn Italian from scratch?
Are you already familiar with the basics, but you want to bring your knowledge to the next level?
Do you need help for an exam?
For these or similar needs I have very structured methods that might be just perfect for you.
The assignments or tasks are always based on the main goal which is becoming confident with speaking, writing and reading in real life situations.
I'm originally trained as an educator for children and I love teaching trough games and creativity. This is of course also applicable for adults or students on a higher level.
To have fun during the learning process is the most important thing for me.

About Me

I'm a very passionate teacher and I'm always looking for ways to make my lessons enjoyable and fun. I have a very open mind so I welcome also different ideas or wishes for the learning process if needed.
My goal is to spread the knowledge and experience that I gathered for almost two decades and hopefully also to learn new things myself during this journey.
The tasks and method will be set based on your needs and expectations so the starting point can be at any level or age.

Education

Music high school in Ljubljana
Bachelor in classical trombone (specialized in solo and orchestral playing)
Certified music teacher in Slovenia and Italy
Attended numerous masterclasses for trombone playing around the world

Experience / Qualifications

I was employed as principal trombone in the Slovenian Radio and Television Symphony Orchestra for five years. Before this job I already started working as a music teacher in three music schools and I was also regularly teaching in summer camps for multiple years.
In this moment I'm about to finish my second bachelor, this time in jazz trombone and composition.
The trombone, trumpet or piano seem hard instruments to learn, but with the right approach it's a fun and enjoyable process filled with small tasks that will make you improve and have fun at the same time. The same goes with music theory and composition; the classes are structured in a way that you wont feel overwhelmed with too much information because the goals and method will be set based on your level and needs. All offered classes are available for students of every age and level, the only thing you need is to make the first step by signing in and we will make a plan together after we have met.

Learn Italian from a Roman artist in Rotterdam - order your coffee like a pro
Ciao! I have been teaching Italian for the past twelve years. I have taught privately and at language schools like La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago. During the first few lessons I will make sure you have the tools to pronounce and identify all the sounds of the Italian language. This step is essential! And it will make everything easier afterwards. When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling. When you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words. I will customize my materials to your interests, needs and desired pace. And because you are learning from a native Italian you will also learn about Italian culture and history. You will absorb a way of thinking, not just grammar rules. I speak a bunch of languages so I know a thing or two about how tedious language classes can be. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad book ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of those dialogues are carved in my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...” When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling and we will go on “talking walks” because when you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words. I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre (equivalent to an American MA) and a Master’s of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote a thesis about translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden and I tried to ride a horse across America.

Vuoi parlare l'italiano? Italiano con Rob per tutti
Ciao, my name is Roberto :) 
I graduated in Political and Economic Science at the University of Milan. After working for a year for an American company in Milan, I moved to Australia, where I have worked, studied and traveled for two years.
It has been an incredible experience! I had the opportunity of visiting beautiful places, discovering so many different cultures and developed myself from a personal and professional point of view.
Since two years, I have been living in Haarlem - a wonderful city close to Amsterdam - and to the coast 🌊 - in the Netherlands. I love teaching and helping people to find out more about Italian culture, history, and arts. I would love to use all the modern techniques of teaching that I learned and practiced them with you. Teaching is an extraordinary passion! Parliamo italiano!

Shantidevi
Italian Classes for Beginners, English-speaking Tutor
Hi, my name is Shanti and I’m a first year University Student at Erasmus University College. I am a native Italian speaker and I’m also fluent in English. My classes will focus on covering the basics of the Italian language as well as getting acquainted with Italian culture. My aim is to provide my students with enough grammatical and cultural knowledge to be able to hold a simple conversation. To teach I will mainly focus on conversational skills, however, I will also use handouts to teach grammatical concepts. I come from a family background of teaching, therefore I know most of the skills necessary to get a concept across to my students. My only hope is that by the end of our lessons, my students will have felt like they did a little trip to Italy and back :)

Speak, write, read and sing in Italian! Tailor-made courses according to your desires and needs
With over 10 years of teaching experience, including 7 in France, in Paris, I offer courses for all levels, focused on your professional, academic or personal needs and requirements. I worked as an Italian language and culture trainer for staff from various companies (Yves Saint Laurent, SNCF, Alstom, Orange), supporting and training them in writing emails, simulating calls to customers and suppliers, negotiation and informal conversation. I was also a teacher at the Italian Cultural Center in Paris, as well as at the Municipal Courses of the Paris City Hall, managing classes of more than 30 students. I was born and studied in Rome, where I obtained a Diploma in Literature and Cinema and a Master II in Foreign Languages for International Cooperation. 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.
