Àpd 26 € /h

Italian might not be the most widely spoken language on earth, but surely it sounds lovely and sweet!
I present myself, my name is Simone and am a student of International Studies in The Hague. I am Italian and so I can offer various levels of teaching, from the very basic to the advanced "tools" one can encounter in a formal-talk situation. I am comfortable teaching to children, teenagers, and adults. Feel free to ask any further questions!

Informations supplémentaires

Students can bring a laptop or a notebook if they feel comfortable for taking some notes and tips. I will provide some Italian books to practice reading and writing.

Présentation

I am Simone, currently studying International Studies in The Hague. I love sports but not only, I have many many hobbies like playing music and drawings. I have studied languages since 2007, when I was very young and I have also specialised my highschool study program on languages. I think multiple interests and good language skills can be combined together in order to create a study environment that is not boring but vivid and alive, that can be enjoyed by the student and also by the teacher.

Education

During the middle school I entered the conservatory, playing the bassoon for the local orchestra. Successively I choose to focus on languages, which allowed to get my high-school diploma and certifications in English and German. Currently I am studying in Leiden University in The Hague

Expérience / Qualifications

• Voluntary work experiences with children in Albania, Italy and Ireland
• Scouting in the Italian local group as a chief for the younger members
• Had the chance to take part into a project of cooperation with mentally ill patients of a local hospital, doing activities such as painting, cooking, harvesting the land and so forth.

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.

Ciao! 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.

Private tutoring classes for young children, teenagers, adults and seniors who would like to:
> Learn Italian, French and/or English from scratch
> Do homework with the support of a tutor
> Improve and perfect their language skills (speaking, writing, listening and reading)
> Prepare for language certifications such as PET, FIRST, TOEFL, DELF, admission exams...
> Practice their skills in fun conversations and/or for special occasions

About Francesca: I graduated as a translator and interpreter from the University of Geneva (Switzerland) and I lived in different countries where I perfected my accent and pronunciation and I also learnt about the local culture (specifically Italy, Switzerland, France, Germany, Belgium, UK, the US).
I love foreign languages and cultures and my goal is to pass this enthusiasm on to my students as they also learn "boring" grammar rules. For me it's all about helping you find a method of language learning that makes it easy for you to remember new words and correct grammar.

Looking forward to hearing from you!

Hi!
I'm Antoine, a MSc graduate in Applied Mathematics at TU Delft.

During all of my studies, I have tutored high-schoolers and bachelor students in Mathematics, French and Italian.

Now that I have settled in this new country I would like to start tutoring again. So if you are having a hard time in Mathematics (or in one of those languages) at any level, I will be more than happy to give you all the help you need!

I have tutored both face-to-face and via webcam in the past. I am okay with both methods although I think it is much easier to help out during a live session, therefore I'm okay with moving in the the Hague/Rotterdam zone.

Living in Luxembourg gave me the opportunity to learn and speak many different languages fluently since it is a multicultural country.
