Learn Italian with an expert and passionate native speaker teacher!
Translated by Google. Click to view original.
My name is Cristina and I speak Italian as a native language. I was born and raised in Italy, where I graduated and worked as an Italian teacher for children and teenagers from 6 to 15 years old, both Italian and foreign. Four years ago I moved to the Netherlands. Here I started teaching Italian to anyone who wanted to learn my beautiful language, both in person and via webcam. I currently have students of all ages and with the most diverse objectives: those who want to go on holiday in peace, people who have recently moved and want to integrate, young people who study or want to work for Italian companies and bilingual children who want to improve their pronunciation.I like to prepare my lessons with great care. During the trial lesson, I encourage my students to speak as much as possible to understand their level of knowledge of the language and what their goals and interests are. At this point I can organize a personal program.
I mainly focus on the conversation, regardless of the starting level of the student. Starting from a short dialogue, an article or a video, I draw inspiration to deepen vocabulary, grammar and pronunciation. I use different types of material: texts, newspaper and magazine articles, original or simplified, games and interactive exercises, everything that can make the lesson exciting, fun and productive! And for those who want it, there is no shortage of homework, which you can do online or in textbooks, depending on your taste.
Since moving, I have also started studying Dutch and this has helped me enormously in understanding the difficulties that students, especially adults, can encounter when learning a foreign language. I was able to compare different methods and experiment on myself with different theories and techniques.
In addition to professionalism, I believe in passion for what I do, which is reflected in every moment of my lessons.

About Me
Mi chiamo Cristina e sono madrelingua italiana. Sono nata e cresciuta in Italia, dove mi sono laureata in Lettere e Filosofia Italiana. Ho lavorato come insegnante di italiano per bambini dai 6 ai 15 anni, italiani e stranieri. Nel 2019 mi sono trasferita nei Paesi Bassi. Qui insegno l'italiano a tutti coloro che amano imparare la mia bellissima lingua! Ho attualmente studenti di tutte età e con i più diversi obiettivi: turisti che vogliono partire tranquilli per le vacanze, persone che si sono recentemente trasferite e vogliono integrarsi, ragazzi che studiano all'università, appassionati, imprenditori o bambini bilingue che devono migliorare la pronuncia.Adoro preparare le mie lezioni con grande cura. Durante la lezione di prova incoraggio i miei studenti a parlare il più possibile per capire qual è il loro livello di conoscenza della lingua, quali sono i loro obiettivi e gli interessi. Cerco di fornire materiale divertente, disersificato, interessante e stimolante.
Mi concentro soprattutto sulla conversazione, qualunque sia il livello di partenza dello studente. Partendo da un breve dialogo, un articolo o un video prendo spunto per approfondire il vocabolario, la grammatica e la pronuncia. Utilizzo varie tipologie di materiale: testi, articoli di giornali e riviste, originali o semplificati, giochi ed esercizi interattivi, tutto ciò che può rendere la lezione appasionante, divertente e produttiva! E per chi lo desidera non mancano i compiti per casa, da fare online o su libri di testo, a seconda dei gusti.
Da quando mi sono trasferita ho iniziato a studiare anch'io l'olandese e questo mi è stato di grande aiuto nel comprendere le difficoltà che gli studenti, soprattutto adulti, possono incontrare nello studio di una lingua straniera. Ho potuto confrontare vari metodi e sperimentare su me stesso diverse teorie e tecniche.
Oltre alla professionalità, credo nella passione per quello che faccio, che traspare in ogni momento delle mie lezioni.
Education
Ho prima conseguito il Diploma di Maturità presso il Liceo Classico San Bernardino da Siena di Udine (Italia). Quindi mi sono Laureata presso la Facoltà di Lettere e Filosofia di Udine, con corso in Conservazione dei Beni Culturali.Experience / Qualifications

Italian soprano offers coaching of Italian Pronunciation for singersAs an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing.
Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing.
We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis.
We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them.
In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!

Learn Italian from a Roman artist in Rotterdam - order your coffee like a proCiao! I have been teaching Italian for the past twelve years. I have taught privately and at language schools like La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago. During the first few lessons I will make sure you have the tools to pronounce and identify all the sounds of the Italian language. This step is essential! And it will make everything easier afterwards. When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling. When you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words.
I will customize my materials to your interests, needs and desired pace. And because you are learning from a native Italian you will also learn about Italian culture and history. You will absorb a way of thinking, not just grammar rules.
I speak a bunch of languages so I know a thing or two about how tedious language classes can be. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad book ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of those dialogues are carved in my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...”
When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling and we will go on “talking walks” because when you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words.
I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre (equivalent to an American MA) and a Master’s of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote a thesis about translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden and I tried to ride a horse across America.

The magnificent ITALIAN language from an Italian girl!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.
Elia
Learn italian from zero to hero with Elia! Impariamo l'italiano insieme!Ciao a tutti mi chiamo Elia e sono di Verona, la città di Romeo e Giulietta! Ho iniziato la mia carriera come insegnante nel 2024 dopo aver preso un certificato tesol/tefl per insegnare inglese. Qualche mese dopo aver iniziato a insegnare online tramite una piattaforma, una insegnante mi ha chiesto se potevo occuparmi dei suoi studenti di italiano perché non poteva più seguirli. Ho così iniziato a insegnare anche la mia lingua scoprendo di divertirmi molto nel farlo. Ho come studenti adolescenti, adulti e persone più avanti con l'età. Alcuni hanno iniziato da zero e altri erano già ad un livello B2/C1...ho imparato così ad adattarmi ai bisogni di ognuno di loro.
Cerco di variare le mie lezioni includendo grammatica, audio, video e molta conversazione. Ovviamente mi sforzo di adeguarmi anche alle preferenze dei miei studenti preparando per loro delle lezioni mirate.
Non ho mai insegnato a dei bambini, ma mi piacerebbe provare.
Provvedo io tutti i materiali necessari, ho libri in formato digitale per tutti i livelli e anche per bambini e ragazzi. Ho inoltre un abbonamento zoom che mi permette di tenere lezioni di alto livello in tutta tranquillità.
Oltre all' italiano e all' inglese, parlò anche un po' di francese e flamano e capisco un po' di spagnolo.
Spero di potervi aiutare nel vostro percorso linguistico.....ci vediamo in classe!
Hello everyone, my name is Elia and I’m from Verona, the city of Romeo and Juliet!
I started my career as a teacher in 2024 after getting a TESOL/TEFL certificate to teach English.
A few months after I started teaching online through a platform, a teacher asked me if I could take over her Italian students because she could no longer follow them. That’s how I began teaching my native language as well, and I discovered that I really enjoy it.
I teach teenagers, adults, and older learners. Some of them started from scratch, while others were already at a B2/C1 level... so I learned to adapt to each of their needs.
I try to keep my lessons varied by including grammar, audio, video, and lots of conversation. Of course, I also make an effort to follow my students' preferences by preparing tailored lessons for them.
I’ve never taught children before, but I’d love to give it a try.
I provide all the necessary materials myself – I have digital books for all levels, including books for kids and teenagers. I also have a Zoom subscription that allows me to run high-quality lessons with no interruptions.
In addition to Italian and English, I also speak a bit of French and Flemish, and I understand some Spanish.
I hope I can help you on your language learning journey... see you in class!
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 !!

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!

Each lesson is unique and dynamic, designed to help you speak more naturally and with ease.

Italian lessons. Italian lessons online or in person.- 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.
