What could be better than learning Italian from a native speaker?
I am an Italian living in Leiden since 2014. I have a strong background in Italian grammar and enjoy discussing a wide range of topics. I can help you prepare for language certifications, as well as improve your pronunciation and your written and spoken Italian.

Over
I’m Margherita, a true food enthusiast.
I’ve always been fascinated by everything related to food — from unusual ingredients and traditional recipes to exciting new flavour combinations. My first teachers were the women in my family, who showed me how to understand ingredients and approach them with both curiosity and respect.
Building on that foundation, I expanded my culinary experience by learning from talented chefs who helped me see cuisine from a deeper perspective and channel my creativity into new recipes.
I would love to share this knowledge and passion with you, guiding you step by step on your own culinary journey.

Creative cooking is not just putting random ingredients together with an aesthetic touch. Rather it is about creating new dishes that tell a small story, tickle, and excite all our senses and especially our imagination!

Aesthetic is important because we eat with our eyes (first), so the glance is fundamental to amaze and create expectation and suspense, but those promises and expectations must and confirmed in the smell and ultimately in the taste.

A dish is a game of consistencies, colors, and flavors that mix and harmonize with each other!
I am a very experienced personal chef and I love to share my knowledge and passion. I bring you from beginner to advanced level always with interesting and tasty recipes.

I have previous experience teaching math and chemistry at the high school level, and I would be happy to support English-speaking students in their journey through science.
I offer tutoring in chemistry, math, and physics for secondary or high school students. My goal is to help students build confidence, understand concepts clearly, and see how science connects to the world around them in a simple and concrete way.

Mahmood
Hello! I’m Mahmood and I currently live in Gouda (South-Holland). I came to The Netherlands some time ago. As an Expat I know how tough it is to learn a new language, especially the Dutch language with its tough pronunciations and sentence structures. Being an Expat I understand much better what the challenges are that other Expats needs to go through to learn Dutch

I am specialized in preparing Expats and other immigrants for the Basic Civil Integration Examination (Basisexamen Inburgering). I can also teach about the Dutch social culture and History of The Netherlands.

Also I teach Dutch till A2 level or to the people who like to learn Dutch as a hobby.

I teach one on one as well as to Groups (I provide discount for Groups).

What can I teach you? :
- Read and Write in Dutch
- Sound like a Native Speaker
- Participate in Basic Conversations and Use Daily Phrases
- Understand and Pick Up on Basic Conversations


My method of teaching:

i) Starting discussion
At the start, we will discuss your level and objectives. This way I can efficiently give you the help that you need.

ii) Open communication
I have an open way of teaching in which I encourage students to keep telling me what their difficulties are or where they would like to improve. In my experience, this saves a lot of time and also makes the lessons more fun.

iii) Simplify instead of complicate
I am good at listening and understanding why students are having difficulties with certain issues. The thing in which I’m best is explaining complicated things in a simple way.

Traditional Italian Cuisine focuses on time-honored recipes passed down through generations, teaching you how to create iconic Italian dishes with a focus on fresh, quality ingredients. In the Regional Cuisine course, we explore the distinctive flavors and specialties from different parts of Italy—each region boasting its own unique culinary traditions. From the rich, hearty dishes of Tuscany to the lighter, seafood-based meals of the Amalfi Coast, you'll discover the diversity that makes Italian food so beloved.

A key feature of my classes is the art of handmade pasta, where you'll learn how to craft fresh, homemade pasta from scratch, using traditional techniques. From delicate ravioli to tagliatelle, these sessions offer a deeper understanding of the Italian pasta-making process.

Additionally, the Market-to-the-Table experience is a unique activity where we take a journey through local markets to select fresh, seasonal ingredients. After handpicking the finest produce, meats, and herbs, we return to the kitchen to prepare and cook a meal inspired by what we've found. This activity not only highlights the importance of sourcing quality ingredients but also teaches you how to create a complete, authentic Italian meal from start to finish, with an emphasis on sustainability and freshness.

Finally, Modern Italian Cuisine combines classic techniques with innovative approaches, showcasing contemporary interpretations of traditional dishes.
