What can you study in your Italian classes?

Every tutor has their own teaching experiences and preferences, which will affect what your classes look like. As you look at the online profile of each teacher, you should consider what you want out of your lessons, to be able to find the best teacher for you. If you're mostly interested in conversation, courses with a native-speaker teacher might be the best option. 

There is a range of advantages of taking a private course of lessons with a Superprof tutor as opposed to taking classes in a private language school. Language schools usually have fixed timetables for classes at each level, which may not fit with your or your children's schedule. A private tutor can work around your available time and organise lessons when it's convenient for you. The location of classes is also more flexible for Superprof students. You can choose to learn at your house, a library, or even outside! The environment is so important when learning, especially for kids, so having this flexibility will help to get the most out of your classes.

Another advantage of the Superprof experience is that you're completely in charge of your own learning. If you want to study grammar, great! If you need some easy phrases for travel to Italy, or you're studying to pass an exam or anything else, your tutor will use each class to get you closer to your goals. They will assess your level and objectives and use their experience to plan lessons that you'll not only love, but that will help you achieve level after level over time.

Lastly, and perhaps most importantly, during a private lesson your tutor only has one student to focus on; you! If you struggle with a small area of grammar, they can organise extra lessons to help you consolidate your learning, without worrying about other students timelines. One-on-one contact is truly one of the best ways for both adults and children to learn a language in a way that will inspire you and make you feel good about your study.

A little background on the Italian language

Learning any language takes time, and you'll need to study things like conditionals and subjunctives, but the reality is that languages are so much more. It's a gateway to experience the history and culture of a place, and a way to get in close contact with native speakers. Just look at the history of the language itself, and you'll see how intertwined it is with history, politics and culture.

Most students don't know that 'standard Italian' is really just the dialect from one part of the country; Tuscany. Dante Alighieri, who was an extremely famous writer living during the Middle Ages and is known as the father of the Italian language, used this dialect for every book and poem, so when unification happened in 1861, it became a lingua franca. Before then, only about 2.5% of Italy's population were native speakers of this 'language'. So what did they speak? The answers lie in the history of every region. Over hundreds of years, dialects in each one were influenced by both conquerors and friends.

Students will be able to learn about the chequered history of Italy through learning about its languages, like in the Alpine areas, where German influences are clear, or in Sardegna which was so isolated over the years that it still has some features of pre-Latin languages, and is officially recognised as its own language. For children and adults, this knowledge can change your view of the language and country, making it more exciting and important.
