Over
Hello everyone!
My name is Paola and I live with my family in a small town in northern Italy. I have been teaching children and adults for about 20 years. I am very passionate about languages and have attended many teacher training courses in Italy and the UK.

One of my interests is art history and I have experienced that teaching a language using a motivating topic can be more useful. For this reason, in my lessons, I focus not only on grammar and pronunciation but also on the cultural characteristics of each country.

I am an easy-going and friendly person, always enthusiastic about what I do, and ready to meet the needs of my students.

We can plan in advance what you would like from our lessons.

Hi everyone!

Would you like to learn Italian from scratch?
I am here to help you! Moreover I will be happy to teach you a lot about Italian culture and food!

In my lessons, I use different teaching approaches:

-Communicative: students are involved in real communication using authentic materials such as videos with short dialogues, parts of films, documentaries, or newspaper articles.

-Grammar: analysis of grammar rules particularly difficult for students.

The technology to improve your French. Classes with a certified native teacher.

Hello Bonjour!
I am a native French teacher and a graduate in French Philology since 2012. I have 10 years of experience in Belgium and abroad. I offer online classes using a method that I have developed over the years, specifically for online classes.

*My method:*
-During class we focus on speaking. Outside of class, I will send you exercises that I will correct every week (grammar, conjugation, writing...).
-I use a particular technique based on questions/answers to apply the grammar when speaking.
-I use the verbotonal method to correct pronunciation.
-You will also receive access to an application for your Smartphone (to learn the vocabulary).
-Use an interactive whiteboard.
-We will use a shared online notebook to correct your exercises and ask me your questions at any time of the day.

I offer preparation for official exams (DELF, DALF, TCF, EOI, FIDE in Switzerland...). Classes for beginners, intermediate or advanced levels. Preparation of conferences or talks for business people. Job interviews.

The class is a bit different when I work with children or teenagers. I use interactive websites and letters.

If you want a young, organized, dynamic and passionate teacher, call me or write me!

See you soon,
Laurie*

As an Italian Opera singer, I help since many years singers with the right pronunciation of the repertoire they sing, helping them in shaping the language in a clear way, which also helps the singing.

Our lesson will involve speaking, pronunciation exercises and singing.
We will start the lesson by reading the text and finding the right direction and emphasis.
We will focus on the sounds and how to produce them.
In the second part of the lesson, we will apply all of the above to the singing!

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!

If you wish to brush up your Italian, resume a past series of lessons, or simply start from scratch learning Italian, this is the right lesson for you! I like to personalize each class/course according to the needs and goals of my students. My classes are focused on improving the student's communication skills. At beginner and lower intermediate levels, I prefer using a text book/ student book in the first part of the class. I usually use "Nuovissimo Progetto Italiano" and "Arrivederci" by Edilingua, or "Nuovo Espresso" and "Dieci" by Alma Publishing. For the second part of the lesson, I create engaging contents using original videos, press articles, extracts from blogs and social media, literary texts. If the students do not feel comfortable using Italian from scratch, I can switch to English, German, or Dutch. The course fee includes the correction of home assignments.

Speak with Precision, Understand with Depth: The Linguist’s Approach to Italian

This accelerated approach allows you to master complex grammar and vocabulary faster and retain it longer, building a truly flexible and powerful command of the language.

You will master: Elegant Italian communication; sophisticated analysis of texts and discourse; and the ability to leverage linguistic principles to make language learning efficient, enjoyable, and profound.
