Italian language for beginners, intermediate and advanced

My lessons are a mix of conversational Italian and grammar explanations, with the aid of written and online resources to practice vocabulary and grammar. I typically start from the Italian words and expressions you might already know (everyone knows more Italian than they think!) and take it from there, with plenty of simulated scenarios where you get to speak like a native among natives (and I get to ridicule myself imitating all sorts of Italian people!). When explaining a new topic, I like to encourage students to use their insight, nudging them when necessary. I have observed how even absolute beginners can easily guess the meaning of a new word or the way a certain word will behave, once certain patterns between and within Italian and English (and possibly other languages) are highlighted. When a student reaches the correct conclusion with just a little help, that is highly rewarding for both the student and the teacher! For more advanced students, the focus is often on vocabulary, pronunciation and grammar nuances. I like to choose a topic together and subsequently bring a written text (like a newspaper article), from which to extract more specialised vocabulary, and which will serve as a basis for discussions and debates.

I am a Postgraduate Student at the University of St Andrews offering Spanish and Italian lessons to people of all ages and levels. I am fluent in both languages and have just received a First Class degree in Spanish and Italian from the University of Edinburgh. I cater each lesson to the individual as I understand that each student has a different way of learning. I concentrate mainly on vital skills like reading, writing and listening. I have 4 years of experience and can offer support for upcoming National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher exams as well as GCSE and A Level.

The class is intended for people who wish to know more about italian language and culture. Classes are structured on italian conversations and/or italian history and culture (food, modern history, cinema..). Requests from students will be added to the classes if possible :)

While studying Social Anthropology and Politics, I would like to exploit my love for languages as well as my inner desire of bringing with me a piece of my cultural background. Teaching is a mutual exchange in which everyone can enlarge his points of view. My lessons are shaped according to needs and goals students want to meet. I think everyone has his own better way of learning and peculiar strengths and weaknesses, and it is important to know these ones in order to succeed. I adopt an innovative approach, which involves speaking, listening and studying with interactive media. My purpose is to work on the four parts of the language (Speaking, Writing, Listening and Reading). I carefully select the material I use. I want my lessons to be stimulating and consider them to be a moment of mutual growth. I like my students to be enthusiastic of learning and always ready to be challenged. I have studied Latin language and literature, Italian, Ancient Greek, philosophy (etcetera) for 5 years and I have been teaching for three years. Thanks to private tutoring, I have developed a profound empathy (it is important to recognise needs and skills of students since I tailor my classes according to their attitudes and levels) as well as effective methods to overcome difficulties learners would eventually meet. I'm very dynamic so I do not want standard classes in which students simply receive notions, but a stimulating environment where everyone can learn by getting into Italian culture as well as making comparisons and discussing about different topics.

Ciao! Hola! I’m Vladimir, an enthusiastic and experienced language tutor of Spanish and Italian at any levels. I’m currently studying at Edinburgh, getting a Masters and I hope to be your next language tutor!

I am also an experienced language tutor, having taught students of all ages and level over the course of the past five years. My ultimate goal is to help you achieve their desired proficiency level, whether that be learning the language from scratch or consolidating knowledge. Classes are tailored to the student’s needs and objective where we can cover any of the essential skills of language learning: vocabulary, grammar, reading, speaking, writing and listening. By providing a full-immersion experience, I make learning languages fun and accessible to all kinds of learners. Please feel free to contact me if you'd like tutoring sessions in any of the subjects listed above. I look forward to hearing from you!

Italian’s culture is one of the most influential in the world. For both its history, food, life style, language, literature and poetry italian’s influence has been a crucial starting point for humanity’s development. thanks for its natural beauties and hearth warming people italy is also a must for exploring and travelling. whether for a trip or to learn a new language my course provide a deep knowledge on both the grammar, the history and the culture and arts of this beautiful country. Being thought from an italian young adult is the best way possible to deeply connect with the country, even with open discussions about personal life and experiences.

Hi! I'm Marcella and I'm Italian. I'm an Italian and Spanish Teacher for foreigners graduated in European Languages and Cultures and DELE certified. I would love to introduce you to the Italian and Spanish languages through conversation sessions, study of grammar and interactive activities, so that you can see the use of the language and remember the topics you have just learned easily and in the long term. If you are a Spanish speaker or have studied Spanish and now feel ready to start studying the Italian language, I would like to help you understand the differences and common aspects between these two languages to facilitate learning through thought associations. At the core of my teaching methodology is the understanding that language needs to be meaningful to the user, and that each of them needs a structured plan aimed at achieving clear objectives, that's why my lessons are tailored to the specific needs of my students. So, whether you want brush up on your Italian or Spanish in preparation for a holiday, or because you are going to move to Italy or Spain for business purposes, or because you are just passionate about the sound of these beautiful languages... :) My role as your tutor is to equip you with the language you need and to practise your target language together until you feel comfortable enough to use it in real-life communication. Moreover, I believe that is significant to know the different ways of conveying the same "idea" to boost the vocabulary, the way of speaking and, above all, to sound like a native! Our discussions will include regular feedback on your progress and advice on what to do next. I love Italy, the Spanish language, discovering new cultures and traveling. I'm looking forward to hear from you and help you achieve your goals. Marcella

- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living in Rome. I have 10 years teaching experience. I am very patient and I love to make a relaxed and friendly class environment. I have qualifications and experience teaching at different levels and in different contexts. I can help the student to improve the oral, written, and comprehension skills. Most important is that each course is based on the needs, interests and availability of the student. - The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and put the focus on the functional aspect of the language. For beginners, I usually follow a specific program, I prepare a course and for each lesson I send students the files that I scan from the various books. Also the lessons can be essentially developed as conversations on specific subjects.

Today I got the Linguistic Maturità, with curricula in French, English and Spanish. For 5 years I continue to study different languages, in different languages: French, English, Spanish, Italian and Portuguese. Language, interest in grammar, culture and understanding are not secret, per me! With this enthusiasm I will wait for others to stop in a very simple way. Here we learn in the preparation of those written and oral, and in the study of the various disciplines.

It is said that speaking a new language makes you see the world differently. How about trying it "through the Italian glass"? 🔎🍕 I promise, it will be fun! This class is for you if you want to learn how to speak Italian like a native or if you want to travel to Italy and have a wonderful experience by speaking this language! I have a Master's degree in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language and I also work in a language school based in Rome. In my class, I use a communicative approach so that you will start speaking from the get go! You will learn grammar, vocabulary, useful and idiomatic expressions (and of course, Italian gestures 🤌🏻) in a dynamic and effortlessly way. Speaking will cover the main part of the program but art, history, custom and traditions will also play an important role throughout your journey! Feel free to contact me to ask some information about the course!

In this course, you will learn a range of linguistic methods and learn the terms used for describing a specific aspect of language or phenomenon (lexis, morphemes, and 'telegraphic stage' to give a few examples). The course requires you to explore your own data using quantitative and qualitative analysis (eg: how frequently are slang phrases used? Are there new auxiliaries being created?). No historical linguistics or literature is involved, but language change or specific traits will be sampled via your own data collection (if this is what is demanded in your course). As many students need to present a "year abroad" dissertation at University level (3rd year in the UK of a Modern Languages or Linguistics Undergraduate course) I can help you to research and structure your year abroad work, both in English (Linguistics) and Romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish). The topics that have arisen from recent discussions with students relate to French Caribbean writing, Italian resistance and reprisals in Rome (Fosse Ardiatine), and Spanish Etica franquista in films (among others).

Ciao, caro amico ! 🖐🏼 No more boring grammar and learning irrelevant texts. Italian is a language of emotions and gestures 😍🙏🏻🤙🏼 We will study the most beautiful language via interactive tools, videos activities and role-play dialogues no matter what level you're on. I'm the only one who teaches Italian dialects (they are so different) Students enjoy my lessons because I'm a good listener and make every lesson personalised. Since 2020 I've been helping people level up their Italian for study, professional and immigration reasons. What's your goal ?

Italian is one of the most beautiful language in the whole world; and what’s better than learning it from an Italian girl without having to move from your couch? Absolutely nothing. I’m Lara and I’m a 21 years old student in Pavia. I’d love to introduce you to this language via webcam online. I speak English very fluently as well and I’m also nice and used to be around children, if you need lessons for your younger son or daughter.

Hello 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 !!

Hi, 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!
