Whether you have been learning Italian for some time or have begun out of boredom during lockdown, chances are you may want to test your skills and get better at conversation.

I'm a PhD student at UCL and I have lived in London for the past seven years. As I have no formal training in teaching languages this would not be an Italian class, but simply an informal, relaxed way to improve your conversation.

We can meet in person (Hackney) or over Zoom/Skype/Whatsapp (we are all familiar with all of those by now!) and have a chat. I will help you with vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar, with any homework you may have to do or correct stuff you have written. It is all very flexible and lead by your needs, desires and curiosity.

Umberto

PS: Yes, I can also train you in the various Italian gestures so that you'll be a pro next time you visit Italy =)

Marika
Ciao! My name is Marika and I am Italian mother language. Learning a foreign language can be extremely difficult. The simplest way is to put into practice what you learn daily, and to do this you need a Tutor to talk to. A friendly and patient person who has already faced the difficulties of learning a new language.
That's why my lessons are based on conversation.
I believe the best way to learn is through speaking without fear - I'll take notes while you speaking and share with you some tools that help you to learn efficiently. "Provando si sbaglia, sbagliando s'impara"! (lear from failure!)


WHY CHOOSE ME:
I will get to know you and find out what your learning style is, so that our lessons are always tailored to you!
My approach is based on conversation. I will shape a method that stimulates conversation and interactivity with a touch of fun. You will improve your pronunciation and memorize many words.

I use games, fantasy situations, and dialogues that stimulate discussion between us. I will also use videos, audio, and articles to improve your speaking, listening, and pronunciation skills.

If you have never studied Italian, I will improve your language skills by guiding you step by step. We will start with phonetics, vocabulary and then with simple presentation dialogues. In a short time, you will find that you begin to understand and speak Italian.

If you have a specific purpose or interest, tell me! We will form a program together and maybe I will learn something from you.

See you soon!
