🚀 How can I find out my level of Italian?
You may have already heard of the language levels A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2. According to the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages, there are 6 levels of language proficiency. The beginner level, A1, is ideal for those who have had little or no contact with the Italian language. To find out your level of Italian, all you have to do is take a language test. It is free and can be taken in many language schools and also with a private Italian tutor.
Why learn Italian?
The Italian language
Italian is a language derived from Latin, which many people fall in love with because of its romantic sound and also because of the culture of its country of origin, Italy.
It is also one of the easiest languages to learn for people who know other romance languages such as French or Spanish. This is because the grammar is very similar to that of other Latin languages. You probably already know some words like spaghetti or gelato, but not everything in Italian is food!
In addition to Italy, Italian is also spoken in Switzerland, Malta and even Argentina, which adds up to approximately 120 million Italian speakers worldwide. Knowing this, it is not surprising that many people want to learn Italian to travel, to increase their chances of getting a job or even for the love of the Italian language and culture. Whatever your reason, you can easily find an Italian tutor on FindTutors.
How to find an Italian tutor
If you have decided to find a private Italian tutor for Italian lessons at home, online, in a group or one-on-one, there are three steps you should follow:
- Use the filters in your search. On FindTutors you can filter by language, city and type (online tuition or face-to-face). We suggest that you also select your level, to make finding tutors easier.
- Ask several tutors. We know that you will find more than one tutor who appeals to you and whose profile fits your needs. We therefore recommend you ask them questions about their availability, methods, prices and anything else you want to know in order to choose your right Italian tutor for you.
- Ask for a trial lesson. Many Italian tutors allow you to try the first lesson for free to see if you like their teaching methods and the content of their Italian lessons. This is a good way to get to know them before deciding on your private Italian tutor.
How long does it take to learn to speak Italian?
The time it takes to learn Italian varies according to each person’s experience with Italian, how many Italian lessons they take a week and how similar their native language is to Italian. For example, Spanish speakers have a much easier time learning Italian than Koreans, for example.
Thus, in general, Spanish, French and Portuguese speakers can reach an advanced level after 5 months. Native speakers of languages such as German or Russian may take 6 months whereas Anglo-Saxon speakers may take 7 months. There are many exceptions, it also changes according to the time that each person dedicates per week to studying Italian.
How to learn Italian quickly
Like any new habit you want to establish, learning Italian quickly requires a lot of dedication. To do this, our first tip is to surround yourself with the language you are learning. You can change the language on your mobile phone and listen to songs in Italian, for example, which will help you increase your vocabulary.
Another way to learn Italian easily is to use applications such as Duolingo and join chat rooms to converse with native Italian speakers. The Internet has many resources for those who want to learn a new language quickly. You can also read books in Italian, if you are a beginner try children’s books or ones you have read before. Finally, don't forget to make mistakes! That's right, mistakes are part of the process and at the beginning it is completely understandable that you may not speak perfectly as you have just started. Good luck!
Types of Italian lessons
There are many ways to learn a second language, one of which is finding tutors. Many people prefer finding tutors because private tuition is tailored to your preferences and is the best way to study a new language. You can filter by:
Italian lessons for individuals or groups
- Private Italian lessons: This is the most popular form of Italian lessons among FindTutors students because they prefer one-to-one private tuition with an Italian tutor.
- Italian lessons for groups: Do you want to learn Italian with friends? Gather friends, family or colleagues and find a tutor for group Italian lessons on our website.
Face-to-face or online tuition
