Many are already aware of the uniqueness of Italy — its rich history, beautiful architecture, and delicious food make it one of the world’s most sought-after tourist destinations. But perhaps even more intriguing is the Italian language itself. Italian is the 5th most studied language in the US, the official language of classical music, with more than 85 million speakers globally. Based on your requirements, in this class you will learn how to speak the language fluently as a local, combined with a detailed and practical focus on the grammar and the lexicon.

From absolute beginners to fluent conversation in Italian! A fascinating mix of language, culture, cuisine and current affairs from Italy – with a dash of necessary grammar! For over 30 years I have been passionately teaching individual and group lessons to people of all levels. I am Gianni, a born and raised Florentine who has been living in Delft for quite some time. Florence, the birthplace of the Italian language, is also the city of Dante Alighieri, the founder of modern Italian. No, we are not related 😉, but just as Haarlem in the Netherlands is known for its ABN pronunciation, Florentine Italian is considered the standard language. I proudly convey this authentic Italian in my lessons. Professional experience I am currently a teacher of Italian at the Volksuniversiteit Delft, after having previously taught for four years at the Volksuniversiteit Rotterdam. In addition to my work as a teacher, I am also a professional singer of traditional Italian folk songs. I like to integrate this passion into my lessons, because music is a powerful tool for learning a language. Well-known lyrics and melodies not only make the learning process more fun, but also more effective. I often accompany my singing with guitar, which creates an authentic Italian atmosphere. Teaching method For beginners, I use an accessible textbook that explains the basics of Italian step by step. During the lessons, I immediately correct mistakes in sentences or pronunciation, so that you gain more confidence in speaking. My approach is practical and interactive: every mistake is an opportunity to learn something new, whether it is a word, a grammatical rule, an anecdote or a cultural context. In addition, we pay attention to Tuscan cuisine and culture, so that you not only learn the language, but also experience the rich Italian lifestyle. For advanced I work with more advanced texts, current topics and conversations, so that you continue to develop your language skills. Unique to my approach 🎵 Language and music come together: traditional songs make learning playful and unforgettable. 🇮🇹 Authentic Tuscan accents: as a born Florentine, I bring real standard Italian to Delft. 🍝 Culture at the core: from Tuscan dishes to inspiring stories about Italy, my classes offer more than just language. I look forward to discovering the beautiful Italian language and culture with you! Arrivederci! Gianni Lessons of conversation in Italian with Gianni Devo dire che do lezioni gia da piu di 30 anni a tutti i tipi di persone per principianti e per esperti di ogni grado Mi chiamo Gianni, sono nato e cresciuto a Florence, cultura e della cucina toscana, che amo profondamente. Da molti anni insegno conversazione in Italian a studenti di tutte le età, condividendo non solo la lingua, ma anche le tradizioni culinarie e culturali della mia terra. My method Durante le zioni, correggo subito frasi e parole errate, aiutandoti a migliorare la tua pronuncia and ea parlare con più sicurezza. By the way, all the steps are taken, using an organic method based on the principle principles, integrating elements in order to render the natural apprendiment and follow-up. This is an error and one of the stories is one of the most important ones. A musical tocco Oltre a essere insegnante, sono anche cantante di musica popolare italiana. Credo che imparare un lingua attraverso le melody ei testi delle canzoni tradizionali sia un modo efficace e piacevole per memorizzare nuove parole ed espressioni. Con me puoi anche cantare en italiano, accompagnati dalla mia chitarra! Hope and passion Ho insegnato per 3 anni alla Volksuniversiteit di Rotterdam and attualmente gia da 4 anni do lezione alla Volksuniversiteit di Delft. L'insegnamento per me non è solo un lavoro, ma una vera passione. To understand this, it is important that you are a student and diverted, and that you are a student. Se vuoi imparare l'italiano e immersion nella cultura toscana, contattami! A heartfelt greeting, Gianni

What could be better than learning Italian from a native speaker? I am an Italian living in Leiden since 2014. I have a strong background in Italian grammar and enjoy discussing a wide range of topics. I can help you prepare for language certifications, as well as improve your pronunciation and your written and spoken Italian.

Latin is fascinating and, despite its reputation of being a dead language, it can still be useful today. However, being unique, it is not always easy to understand its grammar and syntax and translating from Latin can be hard. Having studied it since when I was thirteen and with two cum-laude degrees in Classics, I know Latin deeply. Moreover, I have experience in giving classes to high school students, therefore I am aware of its difficulties and I know how to tackle possible hurdles in the most appropriate way for each student. Apart from Latin, I am an Italian native speaker, trained in Italian language and culture. If you want to strengthen or practice your Italian, I am the right person! Feel free to contact me if you need help in learning/practicing these two beautiful languages!

Italian is a language as beautiful as difficult to learn. As with every other language, practice is essential. As a native speaker, I can help you improve your listening and speaking skills while your grammar and vocabulary will implement as well. I am available both online and in person, don’t hesitate to contact me with any further questions!

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!

As an Italian native speaker, I would like to focus not only on grammar and formal aspects of the language, but also on the cultural context in which phrases are used and coversation. My classes will be flexible and adaptable to the student's needs.

I am an Italian native speaker with a bachelor in Italian Literature and Linguistics. In Italy, I usually teach English to high school students​, or adults who want to improve their skills with this language. Usually, I tend to use a non-academic approach, by focusing on the student's interests and make him/her applying the language to their everyday life, instead of simply learning the grammar rules by heart. In my opinion, learning a new language should be fun and easy, nothing too stressful. What you will get from is a new positive and funny way to learn a foreign language such as Italian or English.

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.

- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living between Pisa and Rome. I have 10 years of 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. I can offer students private accommodation in Pisa, a comfortable private apartment in the historic center of the city, a short walk from my home. - The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and putting 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.

Ciao! I have been teaching Italian for the past sixteen years, privately and at language schools including La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago. During our first two lessons, I’ll make sure you have the tools to pronounce and recognize all the sounds of Italian. This step is essential, and it makes everything that comes afterwards much easier. When I teach, I try to avoid all the things I hated as a language student. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad textbook ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of it is still carved into my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...” So we won’t do that. We’ll use real songs and real literature. We’ll have real conversations, tell stories, improvise, and, when possible, go on “talking walks.” I find that when you engage more of your senses, it becomes easier to relax, stay curious, and actually remember new words. I customize my materials around your interests, needs, and desired pace. If you love cinema, we can work with films. If you’re interested in literature, politics, food, art, history, or simply being able to have a proper conversation when you’re in Italy, that can become part of the class. And because you’re learning with a native Italian, you’ll also learn about Italian culture, history, habits, gestures, contradictions, and ways of thinking. Language is never just a pile of grammar rules. I speak several languages myself, so I know both how exciting and how painfully tedious learning one can be. My aim is to give you a strong foundation without draining all the life out of it. I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre and a Master of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote my university thesis on translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden, and at one point I tried to ride a horse across America.
