    About Me

    I'm Italian and I teached both English and Italian as a foreign language for many years both at school and via private classes.
    I come from the beautiful island of Sardinia but I lived in Rome and then in Madrid for many years, with a short parenthesis in Germany. I'm fluent in Italian, Spanish and English.
    Now I moved with my husband to Athens, Greece, where we are enjoying the city, the country and the Greek culture.
    I love music, especially classical, and I've used to sing for many years in symphonic choirs both in Rome and Madrid.
    I like travelling, meet people, good food (I love cooking, especially desserts ;-), read books and watch movies.

    Education

    I've made classical studied (Liceo Classico) where I studied Latin and ancient Greek.
    While at the university, I've studied Foreign Languages and I obtained my degree in at the University of Sassari, Italy

    Experience / Qualifications

    I teached for many years Italian as a foreign language. While I also have experience in teaching both English and Italian as a foreign language to children and teeneagers, during my career as a teacher I found that I enjoy most teaching to adults.

    Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any level
    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 !!

    Italian lessons. Italian lessons online or in person.
    - I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living in Rome. I have 10 years 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. - The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and put 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.
