A1-A2: These lessons are perfect if you want to learn Italian from scratch and want to gain a solid structure from the beginning and reach the level A2 in an interactive and pleasant way.
Our objectives: to become fluent in using expressions and vocabulary about everyday situations, in answering questions about yourself and in interacting with others in a simple but clear way. 

A2-B1: if you already know the basics of Italian, wel'll delve more into the language in order to reach the B1 level.
Our objectives: to become fluent in communicating and in writing by using an expandend vocabulary and tenses (past and future) and in reading structured texts.

B2-C2: queste lezioni sono adatte a studenti che sanno già comunicare in italiano al presente, al passato e al futuro e che vogliono ampliare la loro conoscenza della grammatica e di un lessico più specifico. 

I nostri obiettivi:
- comunicare (parlare e scrivere) con i pronomi composti, il passato remoto e il congiuntivo
- leggere testi di storia e testi letterari, ascoltare un podcast, comprendere e usare espressioni idiomatiche

I love to create our lessons' materials in a way that also includes facts about the Italian culture, history, geography, literature, and films.

- I'll provide you with extracts from books and audio files
- We can share a Google Document where I add the lesson's material and homework or I can send you a Word Document with the material for each lesson
- Every lesson will be focused on a specific objective. I'll provide you with a summary of what we aim to achieve at each lesson
- The lessons will be structured in 2 parts: in the first part we'll work on a specific topic and we'll use the second part to practise the new topic in conversation.
- We'll speak a lot and you'll be able to say something more at the end of each lesson :)
