Parliamo italiano! Native speaker in Helsinki_Conversational Italian Slow/Medium/Fast
I am an Italian native speaker living in Finland since 2015. I graduated in Languages and Culture Mediation in Perugia, Italy. My lessons are primarily focused on speaking Italian. However, I'm happy to meet any request you may have. There is no one size fits all when it comes to my lessons -> student will receive a customized lesson plan based on own needs and requirements. My classes are for all levels: from absolute beginners to those who already know a little Italian to those who want to master their spoken Italian skills. You can book a 30-minute meeting time for the first time ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Ciao! Olen Irene ja olen natiivi italian kielen puhuja. Olen asunut Suomessa vuodesta 2015. Olen valmistunut kielten ja kulttuurin välittäjäksi Perugiassa, Italiassa. Oppituntini keskittyvät ensisijaisesti italian kielen puhumiseen mutta olen kuitenkin aina valmis vastaamaan kaikkiin vaatimuksiisi. Opetukseni on tarkoitettu kaikentasoisille. Opiskelija saa henkilökohtaisesti sovitettua oppituntisuunnitelmaa omien tarpeidensa ja vaatimustensa mukaan. Voit varata ilmaisen 30 minuutin tapaamisen minun kanssa :)

Valentina
Learn Italian from a Roman artist in Rotterdam - order your coffee like a pro
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.

Paola
Private Italian lessons from beginner to advanced with an Italian native language
Hi, I'm Paola and I'm a graduate in Italian Literature and I also have a master's degree in Teaching Italian to Foreigners. During the university period I gave private lessons to erasmus students in Italy and now I give individual Italian lessons in Amsterdam and online. I use a book that I integrate with different materials. Conversation is very important, but so is listening and understanding a text. The price for 2 people is higher of course, so send mj a message for more information. A presto!

Giorgia
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 !!

Elena
Language teacher (Italian, English and French)
I am Italian but I also speak French and English fluently. I learned French from the age of 4 at the nursery and English from the age of 6. I did my university studies in London (bachelor + master). I have already taught these languages to high school students as well as to adults. My approach is very dynamic, I structure the lessons with theory, grammar, exercises as well as verbal practice. I give my lessons via Zoom or at my office. I am Italian but I also speak French and English fluently. I started learning French at the age of 4 in nursery school and English at school from age 6.

Le mie lezioni si svolgono via Zoom o al mio ufficio.

I hope to meet you soon to test your level in the language you want to learn and to be able to establish together a suitable program that can make you progress quickly towards the complete mastery of the foreign language of your choice.

Emma
- Italian language; Italian course or conversation.
- 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.

I think that is amazing! :) I have lived in many countries in Europe so I know how important it is to speak foreign languages. My lessons & teaching style I have been teaching languages for 15 years and in the last 5 years I have been an online tutor. I think it is a fantastic way to help students and it is really convenient for students too avoiding commuting from and to the teacher I always pay close attention to that all materials, videos, podcasts , worksheets, articles and texts should be the most up- to- date. In the first lesson we always clarify the students' needs and goals with the language as well as assessing the individual levels.
