LEARNING ITALIAN WITH TASTE AND FUN!

On this website you’ll find the right option to achieve your goals in Italian language for study, work, art, architecture, design, fashion, music, profession in general, or just for love ot Italy.


Individual lessons

My individual Italian lessons in person in Milan and online are aimed at those persons who have little time available and who want to mantain flexible schedules. It’s a tailor-made course in which we choose together the best path based on your Italian language learning goals.

You can book an individual trial lesson and explain to me what you need. Do you have an upcoming interview in Italian? Do you have to start a new job in Italy and don’t know how to communicate with your new colleagues? Are you a student and would like to speak Italian when you go out to meet new friends? Are you planning a holiday in Italy?

Individual lessons last 60 minutes at the following cost:

  • 20 euro online;
  • 25 euro in person.

MEETing with Chiara (online conversation course)

The conversation course is designed for those who want to improve their level of fluency and develop confidence in their communication skills.

Conversing in Italian is essential for improving your language skills: it helps to gain confidence, enrich your vocabulary and improve fluency in expression.

During the conversation I will help you express your ideas fluently and gain confidence in communicating your opinions.

During the course there will be debates on various types of topics also linked to current events, simulations of plausible communicative situations belonging to the contexts of daily, professional, educational, and social life.

It’s not for you if you are a complete beginner and have to learn from scratch.

Each meeting lasts 45 minutes and takes place on Mondays at the following times:

  • 6.30 pm – 7.15 p.m. for levels A2 and B1;
  • 7.15 p.m. – 8.00 p.m. for levels B2 and C1.

The cost for 5 conversation meetings is 48 euro.

Courses for companies on site and online

The Italian courses for companies are designed for foreign employees of multinationals and prestigious Italian or foreign companies.
Through a personalized path for the employees of a specific company, learning the Italian language becomes immediately usable within the workplace to facilitate integration with Italian colleagues. For this reason, learning the Italian language must be highly personalized, taking into account the worker’s professional and linguistic needs.
My corporate Italian courses, in addition to providing intensive or long-term courses, can be organized both individually and for small groups. They can also take place directly in the company or online. The online courses involve the use of the main IT platforms, thanks to which the materials are shared with all students, making learning motivating and personalized, exactly like in the in-person courses.
Methods of delivery and the cost of the course are established based on the needs and requests of the company.

The individual lessons and courses that I propose are tailor-made for you and your needs and you will immediately come into direct contact with contemporary Italian, thanks to the combined use of teaching materials and authentic materials, such as songs, magazines, films, TV series and much more. You will be able to practice your Italian in real study, work and free time situations, in a stimulating and fun environment.

Are you a beginner? Does taking the plunge and trying to speak Italian for the first time scare you? Don’t worry! I am here to give you the support and encouragement you need and I guarantee that you will start speaking Italian very soon and achieve the desired results with me.

If you are at an intermediate or advanced level, I will help you correct imperfections, feel more comfortable communicating, and work on the areas where you feel you need to improve. This is your chance to perfect your Italian!”

Non ho mai studiato italiano, ma ho trascorso spesso le vacanze in Italia. Quando mi sono stancato di comunicare con i gesti, ho deciso di iniziare a imparare. Nel giro di poche lezioni, dallo zero assoluto, ho cominciato a capire frasi semplici e a spiegarmi. Continuerò a studiare.

Ci siamo trasferiti con la famiglia a Milano e mia figlia è entrata in una scuola italiana. Sfortunatamente, ha incontrato difficoltà nel comunicare con insegnanti e compagni, anche se ci stavamo preparando per questo trasloco. Chiara ha aiutato la figlia a migliorare le capacità comunicative necessarie. Grazie!

Sono un programmatore di professione. Ho ricevuto un’offerta di lavoro da un datore di lavoro italiano. Sfortunatamente, il mio italiano era zero. Le sessioni con Chiara sono state interessanti ed efficaci. Molto soddisfatto del risultato, grazie!
