Italian with Belina

Learn Italian between culture, grammar and fun

I am not an improvised teacher, but I can improvise. PERSONAL STATEMENT I simply love foreign languages and cultures! In my career I have... studied English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Russian. Though only for a month, it still counts! I am fluent in English and almost there in Spanish. I have good command of Portuguese and can get away with French and German. So, if you are a beginner in English or Italian I can help you in your mother tongue (if it's one of those mentioned above, obviously). I have an Italian and an international teaching licences and 10 years' experience teaching English. METHODS(+experience) My teaching methods change according to the students. In classes of teenagers and adults I prefer using the inductive method, that is to say presenting the students with texts and have them discover the structure of the language. That is a great way for students to easily remember how the language works. It is considered the best method nowadays, still it is not the best in all circumstances. I have studied languages for a loooong time and I know what I want as a student. In 1 to 1 classes or in classes with few students it will be possible to adapt to the students' needs. I have a degree in foreign languages and literatures. I studied Spanish literature (of Spain) and postcolonial literature in English, so I can help you with that too. I have experience in teaching the Trinity and Cambridge exams and myself took the TOEFL, IELTS and Trinity. And I am planning to take the DELE C1 in June. Finally, I have a certificate in teaching Italian as a foreign language. MATERIALS Anything! In class I use the textbook to remain on track but I like my students to experience the culture of the language they are studying directly thorough the so-called authentic materials: songs, literature (novels, plays, poems, etc.), articles, films, social media...anything, I said!

Ciao everyone, I'm Arianna, I'm 29 years old and I live in Berlin! In March 2020 I graduated with honors in "Italian Language and Culture for... Foreigners" (master course at the University of Bologna). I have been teaching Italian to foreigners for 2 years, first in Italy and now in Berlin, where I have been living for a few months. In addition to the Italian language, I have a C1 in English and German, which I teach regularly in public schools. My teaching methods are focussed on the student and his/her needs, in line with the latest teaching guidelines. I use a communicative approach, based on the use of the language in a given context, from which I gradually extrapolate the grammatical rules (in an inductive way). This allows me to create a relaxed environment, without stress or anxiety, where the student is free to enjoy learning in a comfortable and useful way. The materials I prefer are of all kinds, authentic or not, videos, lyrics, songs, articles, games, but in general I follow a textbook to ensure logical continuity to the learning path. The materials are provided by me! Teaching is one of the real passions of my life, what makes me feel fulfilled is helping the student to achieve his or her goals, whatever they may be. Read more

I try at all times to give clear explanations, using examples and concrete situations.

Learn Spanish with me and let's make this quarantine not a waste of time!

I graduated from Sapienza University of Rome and I have a “Laurea” degree (Old Italian university system-4 years) in Foreign Languages and... Literatures (Japanese and Chinese) , a teaching qualification (Ditals II) and more than 20 years of experience teaching Italian to individual and groups in Italy, Japan and Australia. I organize my lessons, plan my activities and develop my management approaches by considering the learning styles, abilities and needs of my students. I don't teach just grammar in a traditional way but I try to provide opportunities for my students to engage in real-life communication in Italian. I believe that it is important for a foreign language teacher to inspire confidence in his/her students in order to make them feel comfortable expressing themselves regardless of their level of ability. My teaching is careful, considered, passionate and energetic. I believe very strongly that teachers who demonstrate curiosity and passion about the topic motivate students to learn and somebody should only teach if they enjoy doing it. My teaching evolves with my continuing experience in the classroom. For me it is a learning activity and I have learned from my personal successes and failures. I love teaching, and I am constantly amazed by what I learn from my students. Read more

Ciao, my name is Barbara, I am a teacher and a researcher in Italian Literature with more than sixteen years of experience in a wide range of... relevant settings – at primary, secondary and university levels for a number of schools.

I have taught a wide variety of language classes, the most traditional ones such as Grammar, Listening and Reading comprehension, Writing skills, Speaking as well as Prose translation (i.e. translation of passages from English into Italian). I have also worked in an IB International School helping students to prepare for the Italian examination (HL/SL). I am now teaching Italian, Latin and History in a secondary school in Italy.

Hello! I am Noemi, I am Italian and I live in Sicily, an island surrounded by the sea and where the sun always shines. I am a sunny,... open-minded, very helpful, creative, and curious person. I am passionate about art and literature, geopolitics, and human rights. I love nature and animals, my best friend is called Pongo and he is a Cavalier King puppy. I love to travel and compare myself with cultures and lifestyles different from mine. Reading and painting are my favorite hobbies. Since I was a child I have always dreamed of becoming an Italian language teacher to foreign students, so I graduated in Foreign Languages and Literature and later specialized in International Trade Relations. I speak English and French fluently, I also studied German and recently started to study Spanish as a self-taught teacher. After graduating I managed to realize my biggest dream and for many years now I have been teaching Italian to foreigners. I have taught students of all ages and in many countries around the world through online or presence classes. My favorite method is Learning by doing, we learn by talking and simulating real-life situations, but also singing and cooking together or in video-calling. We learn grammar by reading current affairs texts depending on the level of the student. My pupils have become my closest friends. My motto is: Whoever finds a pupil, finds a treasure! When I teach Italian I am overjoyed because I can transmit to my students something that is inside me: culture and traditions, the Italian way of life, in short! Only a mother tongue teacher can enthusiastically convey the nuances of her language and make you feel in Italy even during an online lesson. The Italian language is spoken by almost 80 million people. Italian learners are fascinated by its history and the sound of its words, they love Italy, art, fashion, Italian cuisine. Italian is the language of love and it is a beautiful language. What are you waiting to learn Italian with me? I can't wait to meet you! Good luck to all of you who are studying Italian! I believe in you! Read more
