Rooma Teacher - Homestay Italian Lessons in Rome

Italian language knowledge in all areas enjoying your stay in an Italian-speaking environment. I am a psychologist, qualified teacher, with several years experience. In teaching my mother tongue, Italian, as a foreign language I follow the Common European framework of references for languages, which defines how to correctly teach languages and the 6 levels that can be reached in learning it (business, professional and legal Italian lessons are available too). I live in Rome, in the beautiful Monteverde Vecchio neighborhood, walking distance from Gianicolo and San Pietro. My students are hosted in a cozy, fully furnished, private room with on suite bathroom. Depending on the choice you make, accommodation, breakfast, lunch and dinner are included. The concept of the course is living a full Italian experience, 24 hours a day, in order to exploit all the possibilities to learn Italian. It is a personalised one-to-one tuition, where you can learn the language while living in my home on a full board or B&B basis. We will share breakfast and meals during which you can practice your Italian in real everyday life and discuss aspects of social and cultural life of Italy in general and in particular of Rome. This type of Language Programme is available all year and is suitable for any age (20 – 70 years) and language level (beginner to advanced), wishing to improve their Italian language skills while immersed in an Italian environment. Ideal for personal interest, business, travel or examination purposes. You can have from two to six 45-minutes one-two-one lessons per day. Through the direct communicative teaching method you will be motivated to participate actively in the lesson and able to practice outside what you have learned during the lessons. Besides being your tutor I can be your guide on excursion in the most interesting places to see in Rome. These are the 4 courses I provide:
