Ciao, I am Elisa a certified Italian Language teacher and the founder of Elisa's Italian School.
I have been teaching Italian to international students for years and I have experience with students of different levels and ages. I have been teaching at the European School of Helsinki, so I have experience also in teaching to preschool children.

My lessons are held online. You will get a personalized curriculum, flexible schedule and optimal learning environment. After each class you will receive a PDF with notes of the class, material for revision and a personalized vocabulary of the class. If you are interested in in-person lessons we can discuss this possibility (the price of the Lessons would be a bit higher).

I also offer the possibility of buying packages of 4 or 8 classes

About Me

My name is Elisa, a passionate Italian language teacher and the founder of Elisa’s Italian School.
I help Italian learners to achieve their language ambitions with a simple and innovative approach that allows students to learn the language in a safe and inspiring environment.

I’ve always been fascinated by the beauty and richness of languages. To me, languages are not merely tools for communication, but also powerful gateways to different worlds and cultures. For this reason, I learned to speak English and Spanish from a young age and later went on to study Latin in school.

I studied Italian Literature and Modern Languages at the University of Milano, where I gained a deep understanding of linguistics and literature. After studying in Milano, I moved to Helsinki. In Finland, I started to teach Italian as an Assistant at the Language Centre of the University of Helsinki.

Since then, I have had the privilege of teaching Italian language and culture to learners from all over the world. From children to adults, from beginners to advanced learners, I’ve seen firsthand the transformative impact that language learning can have on people’s lives.

My goal is to unlock the potential of every learner through personalized support, constructive feedback, and individualized accountability. Whether you are a complete beginner or an experienced learner, I am committed to helping you achieve your Italian language goals and discover the joy of communicating in a new language.

Ciao a tutti! Are you thinking about learning Italian with interactive and engaging lessons? You are in the right place! My name is Giulia and I am a native Italian speaker. Together we will learn and practice this amazing language with several exercises and activities that allow you to learn and never forget. About my experience I started my journey as student tutor 5 years ago, helping students of every age to learn and practice with tailor-made approaches. I strongly believe that every student is different and everyone of us has different ways of learning. For this reason, I always make sure that every lesson and exercise fit the learning path of my students. Moreover, my goal is to create interaction between the student and the language itself to avoid the use of memory and stimulate the logic. In this way, nothing will be forgotten. If you have any question don't hesitate to send me a message. I look forward to meeting you and learning ITALIANO together!

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.

The magnificent ITALIAN language from an Italian girl!
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.

Chantal
Italian Lessons in person. Individual or Group classes.
Come join an informal Italian class! After years of experience, I can tell that private lessons in the city are the most engaging and fun we can have :) Let's take an espresso and speak spontaneously in Italian. We can have more structured lessons, starting with my explanation, or more free, using random topics. I like to use flashcards, elicited conversations, realistic dialogues, written inputs, and much more. I'm happy when my students ask me for specific topics or questions, so please be spontaneous and proactive :) We can have a short lesson (45 minutes), a normal lesson (60 minutes), or a long lesson (90 minutes). One or two times a week. Individual or group classes. We can first meet online, so you start knowing me and you decide if you would like to meet in person. Don't hesitate to contact me. Ciao!

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 !!
