Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

I am a high school teacher. I speak several languages. Arabic is my native language. I have worked with all levels. And I had training in teaching 👩‍🎓. I helped several foreigners master standard Arabic and the Tunisian dialect 🏆.

I follow an official and recognized program to prepare lessons for each learner.
I use conversations, text images, games, videos, stories to facilitate learning.

I am patient, sociable, and I listen to my learners.
In short, I help you to be able to speak, read, and write in Standard Arabic or Tunisian Arabic. 💐

As part of an anti-modern and out-of-date cultural tradition, my work as a teacher aims to surprise anyone who, disappointed by the traditional school system, has not yet renounced things or the pleasure of thought... In short, the challenge of this teaching being to organize all types of reflection workshops around the greats of the news, thus opening the doors to the themes of philosophy and General Culture

With more and more people speaking Chinese, it's a language that's used in all sorts of circumstances nowadays.

I've designed this course as a guide to vocabulary learning and oral Chinese practice for all levels to help students express themselves in this language. Writing practice can also be included at the student's request. Meanwhile, this is also a Chinese culture learning course.

You'll learn how to start and continue conversations, how to talk to native speakers in different situations, what words to use, etc. The cultural content can vary according to students' interests.
