Ciao! My name is Giorgio, I live few kilometers away from Rome and I am a native speaking Italian tutor, certified with the DITALS Level II... (Università per Stranieri di Siena). Words, their amazing mixture of sounds and ideas, have enchanted me for as long as I can remember, along with their multiple expressive nuances and communicative potential. That is the reason why, after my philosophy degree in 2017, I started my apprenticeship in a renowned institute in Rome while volunteering in a school for immigrants. After getting my teaching certification, in 2019 I worked at an Italian language and culture center in Montpellier (France). When I came back to Italy, I continued teaching at a school and as a freelance, both face-to-face and online. In my work I aim to teach a language that is authentic and functional to deal with the most common communicative situations for those who travel or live in Italy. How? Firstly, I only speak Italian during classes, since the beginner’s level, and I pay constant attention to pragmatic and intercultural aspects of communication. Secondly, I use all kinds of supports and I gradually introduce more complex structures and specific uses. The choice of the topics is based on the interests and needs of each student. Language is always a mean to convey culture and many people approach Italian driven by curiosity for Italian food, music, fashion, literature, lifestyle, cinema. These all are regular topics of my classes, through which I try to convey a multifaceted image of my country. I have a true passion for metalinguistic reflection and I am happy to answer to students’ questions, but I generally prefer guiding them to the autonomous discovery of grammar rules, through an inductive process. I am very patient and I always try to establish a positive environment, where errors are chances to learn and not something to be ashamed of. I believe in the importance of promoting students’ responsibility in their learning process, stimulating their commitment and valuing their learning styles. Fun and gratification are a more powerful drive than mere obligation. I provide texts and materials to work on in class and to revise at home. In order to reach the best results in all the communicative skills, I always enrich my classes with visual support, listening activities, videos, games. If you are looking for a relaxed and friendly environment to learn Italian, contact me for a free trial lesson! We will get to know each other and arrange the work to do together. A presto! Read more

Hi! My name is Ottavia and I have been teaching Italian for three years to students of all ages.

I am an English teacher, I lived in Ireland for 8 years from 2012 to December 2019. I worked there as software engineer for 4 years, and then I... studied to become a teacher, obtaining the Trinity CertTESOL certification in February 2017, since then I worked in several schools of Dublin, teaching English at all levels, from Beginner to Advanced, and across different age ranges, from teenagers to seniors, in both multilingual and monolingual classes, I had students from all over the world, in particular South America, Asia and Europe. The school I worked longer (from March 2018 to December 2019) is Ned Training Centre where I worked full time, 30 hours per week. Together with a General English program I helped my students prepare for the Cambridge exams PET and FIRST, providing them with tips and techniques to achieve better results, and giving them mock exams to familiarise themselves with the various sections. In December 2019 I obtained the Cambridge Proficiency certification, and then I came back to Italy, and I worked in secondary school, for the CLIL project, teaching Art and Science in English. I am offering a first lesson for free, where we can have a conversation and I can evaluate your level, and your needs so to fix your objective and the best way to reach it. The lesson can vary from general English, reading and discussing articles, pronunciation, grammar, exams preparation, Technical English for Information Technology, or if you want I can prepare for an interview giving and discussing questions that are generally asked. I had experience in acting and directing films in English, so if you are an actor I can help you acting in English, preparing for a scene, self tape, and giving tips for showreels. I am native Italian, so I can also help foreigner students in conversations and explaining grammar, idioms, and culture related to Italy. I live in Rome, so I am also available for lessons in person.

Teacher of Italian as a foreign language
Free cancellation
Hi folks, I have a solid experience as a language teacher, and as a language learner! I thus totally understand what it looks like learning a... new language. I always put myself into my students' shoes to help them learn the new language and be able to interact. I have been teaching French and Italian to university students, teenagers and adults for over 6 years. If you want to learn a language among French, Italian and English, or you want to improve your communication skills, or simply you want to chat, do not hesitate to contact me. In my classes I use a task-orientated approach to achieve communicative goals, which means that we learn by doing. I try my best to bring the 'world' to the classroom in order to give my students an authentic learning experience. I like to work on videos, blogs, journals, magazines, podcasts and textbooks, to expose students to the authenticity of the language, and encourage them to speak and immerse themselves in the real world. I love interaction in the classrooms, and I challenge students to get out of their comfort zone by using the language as much as they can. Teaching is a wonderful profession, and I am proud of being a teacher because I like the idea of helping students to reach their goals while I keep learning and growing professionally and individually with them. I am familiar with both The Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR) and The American Council on the Teaching of foreign languages (ACTFL). I will be able to advise and guide you through your learning experience. Group lessons are available, and customized courses are also an option. I look forward to meeting you and keeping learning with you! Cristina Read more
