The type of courses we offer:

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) General Italian

This set of Italian tutorials are less specific and more targeted for those who want to get a range of different things from learning Italian. Even though all novice students will cover survival Italian: as well as Italian to visit somewhere abroad to make solid contacts with the locals, what do you do from there? It depends on your needs. Those who have benefited from these lessons have been those moving or investing overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people who love to travel all over the world, those interested in Italian culture and those who just want to pass a specific examination in Italian.

Face-to-Face 1-to-1 (Individual) Business Italian

These Italian lessons are driven towards people who have a requirement to learn Italian to bolster their work output. For novices, you will find it useful to learn basic greetings and business etiquette. Once you have become more proficient, then reading and writing will come to the fore. Typical students include those concerned with imports and exports, those seeking work in multinational companies, international negotiations and anyone working with international colleagues or administration. Even in our most rudimentary lesson for beginnners, students can expect to finish with decent telephone and e-mail Italian, as well as a good enough grip on the language for a short trip to the country where the language is spoken.

Every student must have the same degree of knowledge of the language, the same business or language needs and the ability to study at the same time and place as everybody else. The booking has to be made for all students at the same time.

italian Songs

La differenza tra me e te- Tiziano Ferro

Tiziano Ferro is an Italian romantic singer whose most famous song is La differenza tra me e te. It talks about the differences in attitudes between two lovers. While he’s faithful and loving, she’s cold and elusive. So, this song is a great resource to learn comparative structures and conditional tenses, like “non te lo direi” (I wouldn’t tell you that) or “io verrei da te” (I would come to you). It also uses a lot of direct questions and basic expressions. Why not choose this track the next time your sing karaoke and improve your pronunciation at the same time? Listen to this piece by Tiziano Ferro here!

Solo ieri- Eros Ramazzotti

Looking for an Italian song to take your listening skills and vocabulary to the next level? Give Solo Ieri by Eros Ramazzoti a try! This piece follows a man who feels sad and destroyed when a great love ends. He talks about his desperation but, in the end, he decides to start a new life in a foreign country. The song is great to put into practice your understanding of Italian tenses, as you’ll find verbs in the past (credevo- I believed), present (so- I know) and future tense (parleró- I will talk or inventeró- will invent). Listen to this song by Eros Ramazzotti here!

L’anno che verrá- Lucio Dalla

L’anno che verrá (the incoming year) is one of the most popular Italian songs played on New Year’s Eve. It talks about the dreams of a man who’s been through terrible experiences but looks to the future with hope. So, you’ll learn expressions like qualcosa ancora qui non va (something is wrong here) or e si fará l’amore (and people will be loved). Plus, the tenses and vocabulary used throughout the song are fairly simple, making the song suitable for all proficiency levels, too. Click here to listen to L'anno che verrá!

Favij

Favij is an Italian gamer who shares his impressions and preferences with his audience on YouTube. Why not follow him to learn vocabulary and expressions not only related to gaming but technology in general? The videos are hilarious, so you’ll increase your Italian skills while having a good time. Favij usually describes what the characters are doing while playing, so you’ll get familiar with basic verbs like jump (saltare), run (correre), sprint (veloz), and more. He speaks very quickly and uses a lot of colloquial expressions, so Favij’s videos are best for intermediate and advanced students. Click here to subscribe.

Marco Montemagno

Marco Montemagno’s channel resembles a TV show: he regularly invites Italian celebrities, singers, actors, innovators and even gamers to speak about their experiences. For example, one of his most well-known interviews was with Steve Ballmer (Microsoft CEO) and Jeff Bezos (Amazon CEO). Some of these interviews are conducted in English with Italian subtitles (a nice starting point for beginners interested in knowing more vocabulary related to technology), but most of them are solely in Italian. This content is great, then, for intermediate and advanced-level students looking to get familiar with the dynamics and expressions used in Italian interviews and conversations.

italian Apps

iTranslate

iTranslate, as its name implies, is an independent translation app that uses voice recognition technology, so the user can say something in their first language (for example, English) and the app will translate it into Italian audio. Text translation will also appear on your mobile phone’s screen. iTranslate is great for practising your Italian, but it can also help you get by during a trip to Italy and you have a basic level of proficiency. You need an internet connection or data for the app to work, unless you download the Italian package, at which point, you can use it without a connection. Try the app and take your skills to the next level!

But don’t worry: you can use apps like Mondly to take your Italian listening skills to the next level.
