Hello everyone! 

My name is Simona and I live in Italy. I have many years of experience in teaching both English and Italian to foreign students of all ages, background and nationalities. I am very pleased when students are able to achieve their goals and pass their examinations. I feel confident in my communication skills so that my students learn how to write fluent, precise and grammatical language in an appropriate formal register. I also have significant experience in teaching and over the years I have developed excellent interpersonal, organizational and analytical skills.

I look forward to meeting you!  Ciao from Italy!

Hi everyone, I am Anna and I am a professional Italian teacher for foreigners. I come from Venice where I live and work. I can help you in the study of modern Italian as it is really spoken nowadays. I am a bilingual Italian and English teacher and a freelance translator at Ca' Foscari University in Venice. I completed the ITALS Master's degree for teaching Italian language and culture to foreigners. My field of specialization and current research is Psycholinguistics and Neurolinguistics to better understand what happens in our brains and minds when we study a foreign language and what emotions are involved. I specialize in teaching adults and seniors and am currently studying in a Psychology course at Yale University. I also have a CEDILS certification to teach Italian culture abroad. I have been teaching Italian and English since 2004. I work with students from diverse backgrounds and my classes are for anyone who wants to improve and deepen communication, grammar, vocabulary and reading.

I always pay attention to your needs no matter what your level is. We will work on your confidence because we are all students and I know how difficult it is when you can't find the words to express what you are thinking and feeling. My lessons are all customizable because I think every student is different and has their own personal way of learning. I will be so happy to work with you and help you reach your goals.

I am also a podcaster, the host of "Una Storia ItaliAnna," a podcast channel you can find here on LanguaTalk at the podcast page. You can also visit my YouTube channel and buy my books on Amazon to practice the Italian language.

When I am not teaching, I travel. I lived in London for a while and also in Liverpool while I was writing my dissertation. I also speak Spanish, so I am also a language student and understand very well how difficult it is to study a language.

So what are you waiting for? Book a trial lesson and we'll figure out together how I can help you!

I am Italian but I did my university in Scotland where I studied BA Economics. I love teaching in general and I love the contact with people: I was Italian tutor for international students, sports coach, and environmental projects assistant. I have a high sense of empathy and very good communication skills as well as listening skills. My teaching method is based on listening the needs and peculiarities of each student: some might want to focus on conversation, some on grammar, on a mix of everything, or on the preparation of a specific exam. I try to make every lesson fun and enjoyable. On top of the academic resources that I use, there are always more "informal" ones, including Italian songs, TV shows, recipes, etc... which will give you a sense of the Italian culture as well. 

Ciao, I am Giulia and I am from Italy🇮🇹

I have travelled a lot in Europe in the last few years and this has allowed me to meet people from all over the world.

When I moved to the UK, my English was really bad, and I studied hard to improve it and to be able to speak it fluently.

I know how difficult it is to learn a new language and feel comfortable when using it. I want to be able to help you to speak Italian fluently, without fears!☺️

Travelling helped me to improve my English and I had the opportunity to help my new friends to learn Italian through simple conversations, learning a new word every day, doing exercises and other activities.

I can teach you my culture, my cuisine or anything else you want to know about Italy!🍕🍝🍷

No matter what level,

No matter which goals you want to achieve, I will help you learn or improve your Italian through customized lessons, projects and exercises. We will find the best study method for you!

Feel free to book a trial lesson, it could be the start of your journey in learning a new language. Let’s customize together your lessons according to your needs!

I look forward to hearing from you!

Ciao! 👋 I'm Francesca, I live in the North of Italy and I'm in love with my language!

I've been teaching Italian both online and offline since 2020, when I obtained my CEDILS certification.

Here's a summary of my teaching style and core beliefs:

1) The focus of my classes is helping you to effectively EXCHANGE INFORMATION in Italian

2) I believe that the STUDENT should be at the CENTER of the course and should be constantly motivated by the teacher

3) Grammar to me is like a scavenger hunt, and the quest for REGULARITIES rather than rules in language an exciting one, where we both learn something!

4) I believe MOTIVATION is the basis of a successful language learning path, this is why I'm constantly encouraging my students to strive for greatness!

5) Finally, I believe creating a comfortable & FUN environment in the class is also key to SUCCESS

What are you waiting for?? Book a class with me to get a taste of my teaching style! 

See you soon 😊

My name is Lucrezia and currently I live in Barcelona.

I'm Italian and have studied first in Italy, completing a Bachelor Degree in International Communication and then in Germany obtaining a Master of Arts in Communication at Duisburg-Essen University.

I have experience in teaching Italian both in classes and online for all levels, from beginner to advanced and for all ages from child to adult.

The languages I speak are Italian, German, English and Spanish.

My approach to teaching is using the direct method of teaching, where the students are encouraged to speak in the target language in real contexts or about real topics. I love teaching as it enables me to share my passion for communication, share ideas, see the students grow in knowledge and skills and above all have fun!

If you would like to learn Italian with me, please book a trial with me!

Thank you! Grazie!

Hi! It’s Michela from Italy.  If you want to learn Italian from scratch or just improve your general competence, widen your vocabulary in a specific field or focus on exam preparation (e.g. CILS) in a friendly and engaging environment, I’ll be more than happy to guide you in becoming a more confident, proficient and autonomous learner and speaker.

Being a language learner myself I find it easy to put myself in my students’ shoes in order to constantly tailor my teaching to their needs.

TEACHING QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE

• I hold a certificate in the teaching of Italian as a Second Language to adults (DITALS, Level I, University for Foreigners, Siena, Italy);
• I did research on Italian as a second language during my PhD in Linguistics (University of Pavia, Italy);
• I was a pre-service teacher trainer for future teachers of Italian;
• I have worked with exchange students and adults in Italy.

I've been working as a licensed teacher of English as a foreign language in Italian Secondary Education for several years (permanent position).

TEACHING APPROACH

I use a variety of teaching methods, materials, activities and tools. In particular, I try to take advantage of audio and video materials and love experimenting with new approaches and technologies. I also strongly believe that teaching vocabulary and grammar in context based on topics relevant to my students plays a crucial role in fostering language development. Finally, my students’ questions and feedback are always of great value to me.

Thank you for checking out my profile. If you book a trial session with me, we’ll see together how I can help you shape your learning journey to achieve your goals.
