Private or group lessons?

Learning in a group isn't a fallback compared to private lessons: it's the most effective choice if your goal is to start speaking, with a structured method, a fixed schedule, and fellow learners at your same level.

  • A small group of students talking to each other in Italian

    More social

    You learn alongside others, not alone, so you can share your progress.

  • A piggy bank taking in the money saved on a group course

    More affordable

    A lower price per person than private lessons.

  • A calendar with the course weeks already marked

    Fixed schedule

    You know from the start when it begins, when it ends, and how much it costs.

What students say

"Wow! I've learned several languages in different ways but this is by far the best experience so far! My teacher is very attentive to my way of learning, my tempo and what suits me the best. Full focus on keeping me motivated and learning a lot. Fun! There's a focus on starting to speak little by little as soon as you've learned some of the basics. Usually that comes way too late in other forms of learning. Very kind, professional, flexible and knowledgeable. Can't recommend it enough."

"I follow Cristiano's Italian lessons with great pleasure. He teaches in a calm, easy-to-follow manner but doesn't make it too easy for you: you are challenged to immerse yourself in the language. Cristiano knows how to connect well with my still-beginner understanding and knowledge of Italian. I couldn't wish for a better language teacher!"

"We have worked with Cristiano for two years now. He is fantastic. Having many years of experience in the Netherlands, he knows exactly what the pitfalls are for Dutch speakers when learning Italian. Based on our progress, he adapts the lessons perfectly. The lessons are not only technical and private, but also truly feel like a personal course rather than something general. He also gives some Italian cultural background, which makes the lessons very pleasant and interesting. Cristiano is a very nice and friendly person, with humor and a positive attitude."

As a student, you can customise your learning path while he will make sure that you achieve real and consistent progress, regardless of your starting level. At the same time, he is a lovely and genuinely interesting person, someone you could easily engage in conversation with for hours. His lessons are always catchy, engaging, and stimulating. You will make real progress very quickly, while truly enjoying the learning journey. Grazie mille, Cristiano!"
