Learning with me, you'll be able to learn in a way that suits you the most.
I'm enthusiastic about languages, sharing my knowledge in languages have been fruitful for me, and I hope you'll be able to enjoy your learning journey from my classes!

Incredibly intuitive, flexible and sharp tutor. Looking forward to continuing working together!
One of the fastest way to learn a language is to practice the speaking. In this class you will be focusing on how to talk about different topics in beginner or intermediate levels. Themes range from daily conversations, getting-around, travelling, lifestyle to news. Both formal or informal speaking skills will also be covered according to your needs. Aside from interactive conversations, a part of the class will be focusing on grammar and vocabulary improvements. Pronunciations and sentence structures will also be focused on. The content of the classes can also be tailored according to your learning goals and expectations. About me: started tutoring Japanese to children before entering college and worked in Japan for a short period of time. Currently working in a Japanese company. JLPT N1 Certificate (2018)

Learn Italian the fun way, with a native speaker :)
My name is Giustina, I am an Italian native speaker based in Amsterdam with a strong interest in psychology, culture and science. Over my career I had many students: my method is inspired to have fun while learning. I think this can be achieved by using power-point presentations, videos, conversation about topics you are more interested in. We can talk beforehand about what you expect and what are your goals and accordingly make your personal learning timeline. My education I studied Latin, Greek and Italian literature in high school. Afterwords I moved to science and I specialized in Medical Biotechnology and Oncology. I have a PhD in Biochemistry. I am now attending Psychology at VU University and improving my writing skills. Looking forward to meeting you!
