Italian for Passionate Students that would love to learn more of the language and its culture
Learning Italian is a gateway to a world of rich cultural experiences and practical advantages. Italian opens doors to Italy's renowned art, history, and cuisine, allowing you to fully appreciate masterpieces by Michelangelo and Leonardo da Vinci, and savor authentic Italian dishes in their true context. It enhances your travel experiences, enabling deeper connections with locals and a more immersive exploration of Italy’s beautiful landscapes and historic sites. Professionally, Italian is valuable in fields like fashion, design, and international business, where Italy plays a significant role. Mastering the language not only broadens your career opportunities but also adds a competitive edge in the global job market. Additionally, learning Italian stimulates intellectual growth and offers a rewarding challenge, especially if you already know other Romance languages. It fosters a deeper understanding of different cultures and enhances your ability to connect with people from diverse backgrounds. In essence, learning Italian enriches both your personal and professional life, making it a language that brings joy, cultural insight, and valuable opportunities.

Learn Italian from a Roman artist in Rotterdam - order your coffee like a pro
Ciao! I have been teaching Italian for the past twelve years. I have taught privately and at language schools like La Scuola Italiana del Greenwich Village in New York and ItalCultura, the school of the Italian Cultural Institute of Chicago. During the first few lessons I will make sure you have the tools to pronounce and identify all the sounds of the Italian language. This step is essential! And it will make everything easier afterwards. When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling. When you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words. I will customize my materials to your interests, needs and desired pace. And because you are learning from a native Italian you will also learn about Italian culture and history. You will absorb a way of thinking, not just grammar rules. I speak a bunch of languages so I know a thing or two about how tedious language classes can be. My terrifying French teacher in middle school made us repeat the same fake dialogue from a really bad book ad nauseam, over and over and over again. Some of those dialogues are carved in my brain: “Bonjour, je m’appelle Richard Drapeau, je viens du Canada, je suis Canadien...” When I teach Italian I try to avoid all the things that I hated as a language student. We will use real songs, real literature, do real conversation and storytelling and we will go on “talking walks” because when you are engaging all your senses it is easier to keep your mind relaxed and to remember new words. I hold a degree in Lingue e Letterature Straniere (Foreign Languages and Literatures) from Università Roma Tre (equivalent to an American MA) and a Master’s of Fine Arts in Interdisciplinary Arts and Media from Columbia College Chicago. I wrote a thesis about translating a long epic poem by W. H. Auden and I tried to ride a horse across America.

Spoken French from beginner to advanced
Teaching the Arabic language to native speakers and non-native speakers through linguistic levels starting from the beginner all the way to the advanced, the linguistic level corresponding to the European curriculum in languages from A1 to C1. I succeeded in obtaining a one-day lesson using instruction and training on the skills of speaking, listening, reading, and writing in accordance with the latest learning and modern educational frameworks. In teaching foreign languages, ECRIF, and the PPU and PPD frameworks, my philosophy of learning is based on communicative development.
