Hi, my name is Matteo, I'm Italian, I'm 30 years old and I'm from Chioggia, a small town in the province of Venice.

I graduated in foreign languages from CA Foscari University of Venice and obtained the DITALS certification from the University for Foreigners of Siena.

I love languages, so much so that I always want to learn new ones, I am attracted to other cultures, so much so that I am very proud and fascinated by the idea of meeting people from all over the world and to whom I can pass on my love and love for my language. My method focuses on communication, with the student at the centre of the process and their needs dictating the plan to follow. Authentic materials are used to create an immersive environment and transform the learning experience into a fun and engaging encounter. I'll wait for you!

Non-Violent Communication is a method invented by Marshall Rosenberg. It focuses on feelings and needs, it helps to develop empathy and communicate more clearly. I can teach you and help you to practise the 4 steps (Observation, Feelings, Needs, Request) and support you in a difficult situation.

Hi! I'm Tanya.
I was born in Italy, but for the last two years of my life I have traveled the world, mainly in Central and South America and the Middle East, traveling and working remotely.
I am a professional teacher with 6 years of experience. I worked on the translation of medical and legal articles, panels in the glass museum in Venice and worked as an interpreter at the court of Venice.
I have a degree in languages, I am certified in international law and I am a language coach. Language coach means that I not only teach you a language, but also how to learn new languages!
I will closely monitor your entire learning journey, to get the most out of your skills!
That's because I love learning new languages! That's why after years of studying I became a polyglot (8 languages - Italian, English, Spanish, French, Japanese, Arabic, Hebrew, Dutch) and I came up with a method to teach you the language you want to learn!
Over the years I have learned to model my work according to the personal needs of each student and have developed a method that allows my students to learn the language in a fast and fun way.
My hobby is my greatest passion is learning other languages, therefore from my experience I can understand many of the problems associated with learning a foreign language.
My lessons are based on a specific method that I have designed to facilitate and accelerate learning.
My classes are available in Italian, English, Spanish, French, Hebrew, Dutch and Arabic.
GROUP LESSONS possible!
See you soon! :-)

As a creative copy professional and philosopher, I see every lesson as an experiment. To keep us both on the edge of our seats, I continuously explore new ways of teaching that fit your specific needs. Feel tempted? Book your first lesson and get one extra!

Doubts? Dutch might feel a little violent to a delicate mouth in the beginning. But once you get passed that, a sea of inspiring and quirky new ways to express yourself will open up. To help you move beyond that hump, I will adjust my lessons to your personal passions and interests, including your specific reasons to speak and/or write in this language right now.

Two kids that are roughly the same level can share one webcam lesson of one-hour minimum. Keep in mind that we will stay online for at least 15 minutes extra, as young ones will need at least two 5 minute breaks.

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!

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.

Like no other, I know how difficult it can be to structure a research or project in a short time. You want to distinguish main issues from side issues and be in the final report to-the-point in communicating the results.

From MBO level 2 I went on to a doctorate in astrophysics at the University of Amsterdam. During this path, I have written hundreds of reports, published 6 scientific articles and presented my findings hundreds of times both informally and formally.

In addition, I have been a successful thesis supervisor of 3 bachelor students and 1 master's student.

I would like to help you get the best out of yourself with the help of my knowledge and experience. However, I do not want to do this with a leadership mentality, but from an advisory mentality in which we can put together as equals a nice end product that we both support. I can offer concrete support for your research/project in:

- Setup and planning

- Doing literature study

- Quality assurance

- Presentation and structure/content

- Popularizing the topics with catchy texts

- Review with a critical look

- Give layout and design input

- And much more

Do you think I can help you or do you want to know more? I would love to hear from you!

Hi there! My name is Altea. I’m a qualified and experienced teacher with over eight years of experience teaching students of all ages, levels, and backgrounds.
I’m a native Italian speaker, and I lived in the UK for eight years, where I taught Italian in individual, group, and online lessons. I have supported students preparing for A-Level Italian, professionals working with the Italian market, and people planning to travel or move to Italy.

I teach Italian (and English) using the Direct Communicative Method. This means we focus on speaking and understanding Italian in real, everyday situations. From the very beginning, you will learn Italian by actively using it. Our lessons will take place almost entirely in Italian. If you’re a beginner, we can use a little English at first, but the goal is to build your confidence so you can speak naturally and comfortably. We will also work on grammar, pronunciation, reading, listening, and writing, according to your needs.

I have experience teaching all ages and levels: from primary school children to professionals, in companies, language centres, and public schools. I’m also very comfortable teaching online, and I use shared drives, digital materials, and interactive tools to make the lessons clear, organised, and enjoyable. I provide all useful digital resources, but you’re welcome to use a physical textbook if you prefer.

If you’re passionate about travelling to Italy, planning to relocate, working with Italian clients, or simply fascinated by the language, I can help you learn and enjoy Italian!

Learn Italian Through Italian Culture is a class designed for students who want to improve their Italian through songs, films, social phenomena, media, and everyday cultural references.
Instead of focusing only on grammar, we learn Italian by exploring how the language is actually used in real life.
You will learn vocabulary, expressions, and grammar in context, while discovering Italian culture and contemporary society. My goal is to keep students challenged but not overwhelmed, adapting lessons to each level.
Absolute beginners are welcome; lessons are flexible, engaging, and tailored to your interests.
