German, Italian and Hebrew classes by an expert (Ph.D.)!

A partir de 49.46 $ /h

I am a German, Italian, Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic teacher with a wide international experience. I worked in Italy, Germany, Austria, and since 2018 I have lived and worked in the UK (Edinburgh).
I offer classes both for *individuals* (one-to-one tuition) and for *groups*.
It does not really matter whether you are a complete beginner or have studied the language before, my classes will be the perfect fit! As each person learns in her/his own way, I provide tailored lesson plans to meet your individual needs. I work at your own pace, targeting your desires and problem areas. You will get homework only if you want to.

The first lesson normally is a quick assessment of your existing knowledge. Through chatting and showing you a couple of pictures/games, I can easily infer which level you are at. This process is very useful (and, believe me, it does not hurt! So, do not panic!) because it allows me to draft a learning plan, setting some *milestones* you can/will achieve (which will be reviewed regularly). They encourage and motivate you, and work as a stimulus to do your best in a very effective and productive way. You will be getting constructive feedback from me and we will be working towards your goals together.

Acerca de mí

Now some information about myself. Italian is my mother tongue. I studied Linguistics, Glottology, and Italian Grammar in Rome. Moreover, I have native proficiency in German, as I lived and studied in two German-speaking countries (Germany and Austria) for 13 years. In my past life as a scholar and lecturer, I used to teach Biblical Hebrew and Aramaic, as well as Biblical and Rabbinical Studies, in Heidelberg and Vienna.
Since 2018 I have been a professional language teacher at all levels, and I have been teaching in three language schools in Edinburgh.

- 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.

In my one-to-one online courses, you will find a room just for yourself, where you will be coached within a German-speaking setting. Each lesson depends on your needs and aims, which may be to improve a specific linguistic feature such as pronunciation, grammar, spelling, or vocabulary. Or it may be to work on a specific goal, e.g. an official language exam, finding work in German-speaking countries, or bureaucratic issues. Or it can just be a conversation to gain fluency.
In our class, I will also point out what you can do during the week to further improve your German language skills and get closer to your goals and I will hand out to you the study material you need.

👋🏼 Hello! I'm Francesca. Do you want to learn or improve your Italian?
No problem, more than 300 students have studied with me and learned while having fun. I started teaching at 19 thanks to the director of my high school and I have more than 15 years of experience, in Italy and abroad, all over the world thanks to the internet.
I offer online Italian courses for all levels, from absolute beginners to advanced learners, i.e., C2. I always have quality reference books to recommend to students.
My classes are highly personalized and tailored to the specific needs of each student. I guarantee quality because I put a lot of passion and care into everything I do, trying not to overlook the details.

🚀 During the lessons, I will help you learn the basics of general Italian, paying attention to pronunciation and intonation while reading. I am always attentive to the needs of the students and ready to tailor my lessons. My lessons are an investment for the present and the future because they are prepared with passion, a lot of experience, and dedication 🧡.

🌟 If you are a beginner, don't worry because I take great care to make you feel comfortable.

➡️ I work on different levels: conversation on different topics, grammar, reading, writing, dictation and games (role-playing games in which the student can test himself by communicating in a natural and practical way with the teacher, as in real life).
In addition, preparation for official language certificates (CELI, CILS, PLIDA), the Swiss maturity exam, apprenticeship as a commercial employee CFC and tailor-made courses in a certain professional field.
➡️ All levels: A1-C2

As 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!

Hello 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 !!

If you wish to brush up your Italian, resume a past series of lessons, or simply start from scratch learning Italian, this is the right lesson for you! I like to personalize each class/course according to the needs and goals of my students. My classes are focused on improving the student's communication skills. At beginner and lower intermediate levels, I prefer using a text book/ student book in the first part of the class. I usually use "Nuovissimo Progetto Italiano" and "Arrivederci" by Edilingua, or "Nuovo Espresso" and "Dieci" by Alma Publishing. For the second part of the lesson, I create engaging contents using original videos, press articles, extracts from blogs and social media, literary texts. If the students do not feel comfortable using Italian from scratch, I can switch to English, German, or Dutch. The course fee includes the correction of home assignments.

Guten Tag! The German language can be a lot of fun when you know how to speak it but a bit of a head ache when you are still struggling to put together the words..
I have lived in Germany for 9 years, attended the Goethe Institut, graduated from a German high school with a GPA of 1,5 and am currently studying at university in the German language. Having been through the process of learning German from 0, I know the joys and annoyances that are part of this journey and would love to help you. Whether you are a complete beginner or already more advanced, wanting to pick up some phrases for your next trip to Germany or in need of tutoring to get the best grades in your German classes at school, feel free to contact me.
In my classes we would work on speaking, listening and grammar exercises, tailoring the lessons to suit your personal needs and preferences (and of course teaching you some German jokes...).
I look forward to hearing from you!
Liebe Grüße
Rebekka

The German language is currently in high demand in the labor market, and Germany accepts scholarships for study or work, so learning the German language has become necessary for anyone who wants to study or work at an advanced level.
The German language is not difficult, but it requires effort, regularity, and follow-up with the teacher, as well as making sure to attend classes with concentration.

My name is Lucía, and I have a degree in Modern Languages, Culture, and Communication. I lived and traveled in Italy for several years and I work as a language and art teacher.

I offer Italian conversation classes for people who already have some background knowledge and want to speak more fluently, enjoyably, and confidently.

The conversation arises from live materials and the student's area of interest:
✅Images, painting and art
✅Excerpts from literature
✅Italian music and cinema
✅Culture, travel and daily life
✅Topics of personal interest

The approach is organic, relaxed, and personalized:
✅Vocabulary in context
✅ Pronunciation work
✅Seeking naturalness and expressiveness when speaking
✅Helpful corrections

Ideal for:
✅Levels A2–C1
✅Lovers of art and culture.
✅For anyone who wants to learn without stress, but combining rigor with enjoyment and Italian culture.

Shall we begin? 😄

El italiano es un idioma lleno de historia y cultura. Si quieres aprenderlo con facilidad y, sobretodo con pasión, podemos hacerlo juntos. Soy italiana, he aprendido español muy bien a lo largo de los años, y me encanta enseñar mi lengua materna a los que son españoles nativos. Mis clases se dirigen a estudiantes de toda edad y se personalizan dependiendo de: edad, nivel de lengua, motivación de estudio. Serán clases muy simpáticas y "ligeras" en donde podrás conocer todo lo que tiene que ver con la lengua, la cultura y, si quieres, también la literatura italiana. El italiano y el español son dos lenguas afines, se parecen mucho pero hay también muchas diferencias entre ellas. ¿ Quieres descubrirlas conmigo? Estoy aquí para empezar juntos una leccíón de prueba y luego podrás decidir si empezar el curso conmigo.Puedo también ayudar escolares que tienen que potenciar el estudio del italiano. ¡Hasta pronto!

Classes based on the goals and interests of the students.
Initial test to determine your starting level. Tests throughout the course to check your progress. Final test to indicate your level achieved. During classes, you will practice reading, writing, listening comprehension, and speaking to develop the four fundamental language skills.

Soy una chica italiana, estoy graduada en Traducción e Interpretación por la universidad de Milán y estoy actualmente cursando el máster en Traducción en Salamanca.
Siempre he tenido una gran pasión por los idiomas y, en consecuencia, por su enseñanza. Mis clases de italiano se adaptan a todos los niveles y necesidades: en el caso de estudiantes de secundaria/superior/universidad, se adaptarán a las tareas o al estudio encargados; en el caso de alumnos independientes que quieran aprender el idioma por interés personal, aumentaremos con material proporcionado por mí. Fundamental en todos los casos es la conversación, que acompañaremos al ejercicio constante. ¡Os espero!
