Paolo's Italian Kitchen - Cooking workshops delivered at home

Whether you do it for yourself or for your loved ones, cooking is an art meant to bring pleasure and joy. Italian cuisine is not a bunch of recipes - "tomato and basil" , so to say - but is rather a holistic approach to food, which is about genuine ingredients, sensibility to taste and creativity in combinations.

*** OBJECTIVES***
The aim of this course is twofold:
1. Guide you through some classic and more niche preparations of Italian cuisine
2. Introduce you to the sort of sensibility you need to develop to start create on your own

***ABOUT THE COURSE***
Lessons are held conveniently at your place and the course can be tailored to your interests, experience and preferences. We can choose together the recipes to prepare or you can leave the decision to me, in that case I will consider the seasonality, the market offer and I will follow the inspiration of the moment.
We can also go to shop for groceries together as it all starts with choosing good ingredients.

***ABOUT ME***
Cooking and good food are life-long passions that I have always experienced in practice, through taste, discovery and personal sensibility.

Paola
Private Italian lessons from beginner to advanced with an Italian native language
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!

Italian lessons for students and adults with Native Speaker.
I teach Italian language for kids, students and adults who want to learn the Italian language. Being a native speaker I have a good knowledge of Italian and I can help you with the grammar basics or with improving your conversation skills. I have experience in tutoring: in Italy I used to teach English/Spanish/French and help students with their homework. For this reason I'm also open to doing this.

Emma
Italian lessons. Italian lessons online or in person.
- 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.

Giorgia
Italian language lessons from a native speaker - any level
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 !!
