Conversations in Italian with native speaker, former radio presenter, music and stage professional, arts lover. Keep your Italian going!
Italian is a language officially spoken in Italy only, unlike Spanish, or English, to name the most spoken languages in the western world. But it's becoming more and more a must-know language for many, whether the connection with it comes through food, fashion, Opera, design, the arts in general, or any other of the many interesting sides of Italian culture to make it outside "the boot"'s borders. I have been doing Italian conversation lessons for a few years, it has always been a great pleasure for me to share the beauty of Italian language with people showing a genuine interest in my culture. I tend to keep the conversation fully in Italian, but there would be no problem at all with communicating in English if necessary. I give grammar support when needed, and I have a real interest in etymology and words in general if there's an interest in going deeper in the language. Along with the use of precious grammar books and language manuals, the best way to get into a language is to speak it, even more so if with someone giving you support with its correct pronunciation, and its actual use in a realistic scenario. Like most Italians I have an obsession with good food, I love cooking and I'm always happy to share my recipes and cooking tips. Food is a great conversation subject, and it can give you new skills! All ages and levels welcome. For the youngest, I have a degree in primary school education and I've been a music teacher for over thirty years.

Edoardo
Enthusiastic tutor in economics, maths and ItalianHello, everyone!
My name is Edoardo. I received my master's degree in International Finance and Economic Development from the University of Kent, and I have experience in business intelligence consultancy and sales & marketing.
I taught as a private tutor for five years in subjects such as economics, maths, Italian, English, and guitar to middle school, high school, and university students. I tutor students at all levels of education (including Primary, KS3, IB, GCSE, A-level, and Undergraduate Degree) and adults.
My teaching is results-oriented and focuses towards a precise goal (such as an exam), but I am also very keen on making people passionate about their studies.
I would be delighted to answer any questions and offer clarification outside of lessons' time too.
If you are looking for a professional, dedicated, and friendly teacher, I am the one for you!

That's because I love learning new languages! That's why after years of studying I became a polyglot (8 languages - Italian, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Dutch) and I came up with a method to teach you the language you want to learn!
Over the years I have learned to model my work according to the personal needs of each student and have developed a method that allows my students to learn the language in a fast and fun way.
My hobby is my greatest passion is learning other languages, therefore from my experience I can understand many of the problems associated with learning a foreign language.

(Native) Italian classes for English or Spanish speaking studentsIn a typical Italian class we start with a warm welcome and a quick review of previous lessons. We then dive into new vocabulary and grammar, often through interactive activities and examples. We follow with conversation practice, where students engage in dialogue to strengthen their speaking and comprehension skills. We then focus on reading comprehension, discussing passages and exploring vocabulary. Writing tasks are assigned, with personalized feedback provided to aid in improvement. The class wraps up with a summary of key points and feedback, ensuring students feel supported and motivated in their language learning journey.

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 !!
Paola
Private Italian lessons from beginner to advanced with an Italian native languageHi, 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 the university period I gave private lessons to erasmus students in Italy and now I give individual Italian lessons in Amsterdam and online.
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!
