Passionate and native-living-abroad will (online) teach you the authentic ITALIANO!

This class aims at building confident Italian speakers and I believe practice is the best way to improve language fluency.
My students and I love to split each class into two parts: the first half generally focused on grammar (foundations are crucial) and the second always dedicated to speaking activities and conversation.
We'll talk about a number of different topics and share content and ideas while having lots of fun.

Classes will be in English, hopefully in Italian :)

Please contact me for a tailored learning program designed on your needs!

Nice person, very empathic
Great teacher! Fortunella makes the learning environment fun and interactive, while also giving good explanations and exercises.
Fortunella has been a wonderful and energetic tutor! Aside from vocabulary words and verb conjugation, I’ve learned a lot about the culture and received various recommendations for Italian movies, shows, and songs. I’ve had such a great experience since she could pinpoint my weaknesses so that I could improve much faster. Grazie mille!
(ENGLISH BELOW) Fortunella is, as a professional and as a person, simply FANTASTIC... Punctual, nice, professional, funny... we don't miss details! I learned vocabulary, verbs, how to read and pronounce correctly... we talked about culture, society, travel... the topics were endless! My Italian isn't perfect but I really learned and improved so much that I can't believe it. I'm happy to have met you, thank you for your dedication every day, I look forward to returning to class with you! ---------------------------- Fortunella is simply FANTASTIC, both personal and professionally speaking...

✨French teacher - Pass the DELF or DALF (French diploma) - Individual or group session. ✨
Hello, I am Majda, French language teacher. I have been giving private lessons online since 2018. I offer special sessions that meet your needs and objectives to successfully complete your DELF (Diplôme d'Etudes en Langue Française) or DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language), including the TCF (French Knowledge Test). I have been supporting many interested people of different nationalities thanks to online courses since 2018; For me, helping enthusiasts to practice the French language is a very good experience because I understand that success is a capital objective in the life of ambitious people. I speak Arabic, French, Spanish, and also English. I explain my lessons in the language of your choice. And at the end of each session, I give lessons with exercises to do as homework to examine your gaps and monitor your progress. Here are some things to know about the DELF and DALF: The DELF (Diploma of Studies in French Language) and the DALF (Advanced Diploma in French Language) are two official and quality diplomas. They are harmonized on the levels of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages. They include the following six levels, in ascending order: A1, A2, B1, B2, C1, C2. These two diplomas are suitable for all ages and all audiences. In addition, the DELF B2, and increasingly the DALF C1, allow students to enter French, European or French-speaking universities, and certain Grandes Ecoles. Will you have DELF or DALF exams to pass? Do you need to follow specific sessions with me to improve your level? Don't hesitate to book your sessions so that we can start the preparation. I am available !

German Class for Beginners/Intermmediate/ Advanced
German? About 40% of German and English vocabulary are very similar to each other, which makes German one of the easiest languages to learn for native English speakers. So, basically, if you already know English, it should be a piece of cake for you to learn German. Why German? Science and Research: German is the second most commonly used scientific language. Cultural understanding: Learning German provides you with an insight into the way of life, and the hopes and dreams of people in German speaking countries, broadening your horizon.

Italian conversation lessons - Beginner to Advanced
Ciao! I am a native Italian and English speaker and I have been teaching teenagers and adults in the last ten years. A History, Cultural Heritage and Chemistry graduate, I am especially passionate about linguistics and different cultures! Our conversation lessons will help you learn and practice your Italian, whether you are a beginner or want to perfect the language. Topics will be tailored to your needs and can range from basic scenarios to more specific ones (professional, travel or cultural context). When necessary we can focus on specific grammar rules and expand vocabulary that is more important to you. Approach - I always encourage the student to develop a personal connection to the language by exploring personal interests and real-life language use. In my lessons, I favour a flexible approach and encourage regular practice, which will definitely help you to develop your Italian and keep it active in the long run.

Great Qur’an memorization for non-Arabic speaking children using the recitation method
I teach the Qur’an to children and women in an easy and enjoyable way. Praise be to God. I have great patience with children. The child will memorize the episode with me using the repetition method. He comes out memorized 100% and I recite to him before he comes out. We also recite each episode by reciting the previous surahs, and if he forgets, we repeat the past as well, focusing on the correct pronunciation. The exits and provisions of Tajweed Mastery is the most important thing to me. Quality is more important than quantity. I also try to explain some of the principles of Islam to him every time, while clarifying some of the difficult meanings. I also teach women of all ages, girls as well, and boys up to 10 years old
