Hi, my name is Chiara and I’m from Italy, but I lived abroad for about 6 years, in the UK, in Australia, in New Zealand and in Perù. 

I love traveling and meeting new people and experiencing different cultures. That’s why I decided to study languages. I am a polyglot and besides English and Italian, I can also speak Spanish, French, and German. So I know what it’s like to study a foreign language! I can teach you how to improve your speaking, and your listening, because I’ve done it myself in the first place! I also know that sometimes learning a language is not easy, but I know how you can overcome these difficulties. 

My lessons vary according to the student’s needs. During our first lesson together we will decide what your goals are and what your level is. My lessons focus on conversation to give you a chance to practise what you have studied independently, and then, if needed, we can revise together some grammar points and learn some vocabulary.

My first goal is always to make the student feel comfortable in speaking another language so that they can feel confident about it and make progress more easily. 

I believe the secret to learning a language is enjoying the process, having fun is the key!

I look forward to meeting you,

A presto!

I'm a certified and professional teacher with many years of experience teaching Italian; I've a master degree in Foreign Languages and Italian literature and I taught students of all levels and ages, coming from different countries and backgrounds.

 I can help learners with academic or business Italian, as well as learning Italian for other professional or work contexts. ( CILS, CELI, DILS) And I'm really happy to teach people who are learning as a hobby or for holidays.

CIAO a tutti! Hello everybody! I'm Giuliana,  a qualified Italian teacher with more than 15 years experience.

I’m a native Italian from sunny southern Italy and I hold a Degree in Foreign Languages and Literatures and Ditals II Level (Certificate of advanced skills in Teaching Italian to Foreigners). I am also a CILS Certification examiner 

I have students of all ages and I travel very often to prepare them for Italian language proficiency certifications (Cils, Celi, Roma 3) for exams and B1 Certificate for Italian Citizenship.  

I taught in Turkey (Istanbul), in Perù (Lima) and in Togo (Lomè) to children, university students and adult people who love Italian language and culture.

My lessons are specifically based on your needs and goals  and designed to enable you to COMMUNICATE in situations which you are likely to encounter in Italy. They are stimulating and interactive and organized in a relaxed environment in which learning feels like a natural process.

I chose to teach online because I love to share my knowledge and culture with people from all around the world. I love my students and I always provide constant SUPPORT and assistance. If we work together, you will speak in a fluent  way and you will feel confident in your communication with others.

I wait for you!

A presto,

Giuliana

My name is Lucrezia and currently I live in Barcelona.

I'm Italian and have studied first in Italy, completing a Bachelor Degree in International Communication and then in Germany obtaining a Master of Arts in Communication at Duisburg-Essen University.

I have experience in teaching Italian both in classes and online for all levels, from beginner to advanced and for all ages from child to adult.

The languages I speak are Italian, German, English and Spanish.

My approach to teaching is using the direct method of teaching, where the students are encouraged to speak in the target language in real contexts or about real topics. I love teaching as it enables me to share my passion for communication, share ideas, see the students grow in knowledge and skills and above all have fun!

If you would like to learn Italian with me, please book a trial with me!

Thank you! Grazie!

Hi everybody!

My name is Margherita, I am from Milan, I am living in Tenerife now and I have been an Italian teacher for 7 years.

My motto is: if you are a polyglot, you can do anything!

I personally speak fluently both Spanish and English as I have worked and lived in Ireland, Australia and Bolivia, before moving to the Canarian Islands.

What do I offer to my students?

- conversation classes on any subject at any level (from 0 to C1)

- professionalism and fun (how can you learn if you are bored?)

- material adapted to your needs

- links on which keep practicing online

- the opportunity to learn Italian for pleasure, tourism or work

- fluency in Italian and in pronunciation

- comparison with English to understand the differences between the 2 languages

- a humanistic-affective approach which is student-centred

- if you want, lessons with other people

- and why not? if you want, even a friend

I graduated in Linguistic and Cultural Mediation in Milan in 2013 and afterwards I achieved the Master Itals aimed at teaching the Italian language and culture to foreigners.

I have taught Italian for four years in La Paz, Bolivia by the SOCIETà DANTE ALIGHIERI, giving classes to adults and university students, while I have taught to kids and adolescents by the Colegio Italo-Boliviano of the same city.

I returned to Italy in 2019 and I was given the opportunity to teach Italian through the Berlitz school by the Leonardo Elicotteri Company, addressing to English managers and engineers.

As regards my teaching method, the student is the centre of the learning process.

Therefore I customize my lessons considering your interests and the topics you want to talk about using different materials like videos, songs, online activities, along with written texts.

This way lessons are based especially on CONVERSATION as I think that each language's goal is to communicate.

So let's start with a talk on the trial lesson to know each other and see which goals you want to reach and by when, then together we choose the path to follow, considering your needs.

I also have significant experience in teaching and over the years I have developed excellent interpersonal, organizational and analytical skills.

I look forward to meeting you!  Ciao from Italy!

Ciao! I like to think that every student of mine was a challenge in a peculiar way. I have worked with European students abroad, retired professionals, University students in Asia, company employees and teenagers: every time I have found the best way to have fun both, taking advantage of any opportunity to understand  my language and my culture! 

I'm currently working as an online tutor with beginners, mainly from English speaking countries, who are generally not familiar with the language learning process. I usually help them to get some confidence in facing basic conversations as tourists in the country. I like to engage a fun conversation about different topics like my country's culture, Italian modern literature, art and cinema history due to my solid background in these disciplines. I am also a very curious person, keen to explore new topics, so much that I had eventually supported my students'interests through language practice (for example: reading Italian sport magazines together or watching videos about Italian cuisine).

I really believe that having fun teaching is the first cause for having fun learning.
