Learning Italian through conversation - exercises - listening / Learning italian throught conversation - exercises - listening

Are you interested in Italian culture and language? Are you planning to move to Italy for work, study, travel, volunteering? Then this class is for you! Italy is one of the countries where not that many citizens speak English language, therefore it might be difficult to adapt to locals without knowing Italian, at least basic one. By this class I would like to immerse you into Basic Italian language and culture. For the teaching purposes, throughout the classes, I will use different highly-rated textbooks of local editions, effective YouTube channels, interesting articles. I will cover main functional areas of Italian grammar and vocabulary within different areas and will make sure that you start speaking since the first class already, since Practice Makes Perfect and Italian is not so difficult as it may seem at first! The goals, needs, expectations will be discussed in person with every student and adapted towards personality. The program and classes content will also depend on the prior mentioned factors. Feel free to contact me for questions and classes.

Hello, I'm Gemma, I'm 26 and I live in Leuven, Belgium. I am originally from Tuscany, Italy. I'm used to tutoring, usually students, in foreign languages and humanistic subjects. It would be a pleasure for me to teach you Italian in a way that's tailored to your needs. We can start with a format and change it on the go, depending on what suits you best and the specific areas you want to improve. The class will be structured around: grammar, real-life conversations, listening to videos/music, cultural insights, and practical exercises. I know grammar can be very boring, but we'll make it as fun and interactive as possible. I’ll help you build a strong foundation or refine your advanced skills. I hope I'll get to work with you!

Want to learn the language "del bel paese là dove 'l sì suona?" (Dante, La Divina Commedia, Inferno, canto XXXIII)? Crave to go deeper into the world of Boccaccio, Machiavelli, Ariosto, D'Annunzio and many others? Long to be guided into the knowledge of the sweet sounding culture, society and lifestyle of La Dolce Vita? Then I am the man! I am a cum-laude, international Master graduate with a Bachelor in literature from the University of Bologna, the most prestigious in Italy and one of the most ancient in the whole world. Plus, I possess the official diploma for teaching at Italian high schools. Ergo, I am ready to plan how with you to become "un Italiano vero", either through grammar study, literature explorations, informal conversations or a good mix of them all! I am well equipped to gradually introduce you, step by step, to an all-Italian learning experience, through English, French and some words of Dutch too. Absolute beginners, intermediate ad advanced Italy lovers, feel free to get in touch! Ciao!

Hello everyone! I hold a doctorate in Italian, have been teaching Italian for 5 years and hold a CELTA teaching qualification. I've been preparing students for the A-Levels and GCSE (language + literature). I can prepare you for specific examinations, language lessons in general or teach you Italian for business. The lessons are for everyone, whatever their age or level (children to adults). I will make sure that you discover the Italian culture through the lessons, learn the correct pronunciation and of course learn some grammar. I am open to your needs and can speak a few languages to make sure you understand fully the lessons (of course, we’ll try to use mostly Italian in all our lessons depending on your level). I can’t wait to meet my new students! 😊

I am an Italian native speaker in Leuven until the end of January and I would like to help people improving their knowledge of the Italian language. I am a 24 years old girl from Verona. I study English and Russian for a Master's degree, so I am used to the learning of languages. The lesson could take place in any library or wherever the student wishes.

Hello, I'm Verdiana and I'm a Master student at KU Leuven. I tutor students and offer private lessons since I was 16, thus I've gained quite some experience on the topic. My main focus is on foreign language because I've studied them for 5 years. Here in Leuven though, I would like to teach Italian, my native language. During a one-hour-class, you'll get the chance to explore the (difficult but fascinating) Italian grammar, to practice both your oral and written skills and to learn some useful Italian phrases. Don't hesitate to contact me in case of any question!

Benvenuto! I am a native Italian speaker and a professional translator based in Belgium. My classes ar aimed at all levels and ages, whether you want to learn Italian for personal interest or because you need to use it at work, school, etc. Each lesson will be adapted to your skills and needs. I also specialize in tutoring students who are shy or tend to stress out when it comes to taking tests or speaking in public. Learn Italian in a stress-free environment! Learning languages should always be fun and enjoyable. Impara l'italiano divertendoti! Ti aspetto!

Ciao! I m a mother tongue italian teacher. I would give lessons in different level, trought conversation and exercises. The lesson can be adapted to the interests and level of the student. Also I m avaiable for those who wants to improve their conversation skills.

Ehi! I'm Monica, I come from Italy and I'm staying here in Belgium as an Erasmus student. I would like to teach my language, I have a bachelor degree in translation and interpretation. I am fluent in English and French. Don't hesitate, contact me!

I am Valentina and I am a PhD student in Neuroscience. I was born in Italy, in Trento. I love the teaching of my mother tongue! I have experience in the italian private lessons since three years. I used to be prepared and clear during my lessons, to optimize the time to learn a lot in a short time, and to adapt to the needs/knowledge of the person. I am available during the week in the evening after 7 p.m., and in the weekend all day.

We will work with language barrier, fears, the feeling of "understanding, but not talking". It will be an easy-going class with elaborated communicative tools tailored individually. By default, the class incorporates grammar, pronunciation, style distinction.

- I'm a professional Italian teacher from Italy, now living in Rome. I have 10 years teaching experience. I am very patient and I love to make a relaxed and friendly class environment. I have qualifications and experience teaching at different levels and in different contexts. I can help the student to improve the oral, written, and comprehension skills. Most important is that each course is based on the needs, interests and availability of the student. - The method is mainly what is called communicative, aimed at stimulating the student to speak immediately and put the focus on the functional aspect of the language. For beginners, I usually follow a specific program, I prepare a course and for each lesson I send students the files that I scan from the various books. Also the lessons can be essentially developed as conversations on specific subjects.

In this course, you will learn a range of linguistic methods and learn the terms used for describing a specific aspect of language or phenomenon (lexis, morphemes, and 'telegraphic stage' to give a few examples). The course requires you to explore your own data using quantitative and qualitative analysis (eg: how frequently are slang phrases used? Are there new auxiliaries being created?). No historical linguistics or literature is involved, but language change or specific traits will be sampled via your own data collection (if this is what is demanded in your course). As many students need to present a "year abroad" dissertation at University level (3rd year in the UK of a Modern Languages or Linguistics Undergraduate course) I can help you to research and structure your year abroad work, both in English (Linguistics) and Romance languages (French, Italian, Spanish). The topics that have arisen from recent discussions with students relate to French Caribbean writing, Italian resistance and reprisals in Rome (Fosse Ardiatine), and Spanish Etica franquista in films (among others).

Italian is one of the most beautiful language in the whole world; and what’s better than learning it from an Italian girl without having to move from your couch? Absolutely nothing. I’m Lara and I’m a 21 years old student in Pavia. I’d love to introduce you to this language via webcam online. I speak English very fluently as well and I’m also nice and used to be around children, if you need lessons for your younger son or daughter.

Hello everyone! I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy. I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language. I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments. Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages. The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above). Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!
