Learn Italian with a real Italian (also for beginners)

26.77 £ /h

I am an Italian native speaker with a background in design.
Usually, I tend to use a non-academic approach, by focusing on the student's interests and make him/her applying the language to their everyday life, instead of simply learning the grammar rules by heart.
In my opinion, learning a new language should be fun and easy, nothing too stressful. What you will get from is a new positive and funny way to learn a foreign language such as Italian or English.

Most kids think coding is for "smart kids" or "future programmers."
It's not. Coding is how real people solve real problems.
In this class, we skip the theory. Your child creates real things.

What they'll do:
✓ Build real projects in Scratch: a working game, an interactive animation, a story they coded
✓ Program virtual robots: solve real-world challenges (navigate a maze, automate a task, build a system)
✓ Create in Minecraft Education: design worlds, automate constructions, solve logic problems
✓ Experiment with different languages: not just learn "the right way," but understand that there are many ways to think about a problem
✓ Collaborate and share: work with other kids, get feedback, improve their work
✓ Develop logical thinking: not just for coding, but for anything: solving math problems, science challenges, real-world situations

Why this is different:
We don't teach syntax. We teach how programmers think.
Most children's coding courses say "here's the code, copy it." We teach "what problem are we trying to solve? How could we break it into steps? What options do we have?"
When your child learns to think like a programmer, they can learn any language afterward.

What they take home:
A portfolio of 3–4 completed, working projects. The ability to say "I built this." And the deep understanding that code is a tool to make real things happen.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Flexible pace, no prior experience needed
For curious 8-12 year olds who want to build.

Photoshop est une application exceptionnelle qui permet de modifier, corriger, sublimer les photographies. Ludique, elle permet de créer des visuels personnalisés avec un large éventail de possibilités.
Indesign est quant à elle une application plus dédiée à la mise en page créative. Avec celle-ci on peut créer son propre album photo, un cv original, flyers, affiche, etc.
Les deux programmes permettent ainsi de faire vos propres projets graphiques de la photo d'ambiance à la mise en forme. Créer ainsi vos propres cartes de remerciements, de mariage, vos invitations, etc.
