the word "prego" is used in different contexts. I'll try to summarize.
1) as a response to "thanks", you say "prego" (you are welcome)
2) as a response to someone asking permission to enter a room. for example: may I come in? the affirmative answer is "prego"
3) inviting someone to do something. for example: could you repeat please? Puoi ripetere, prego?


Is there anyone who can tell me in which context I can use the Italian word "prego"?



"Prego" can be used in these contexts, but also when you want to say "go ahead" in a formal way. For example, in this case: A customer arrives at the counter of a coffee shop, and the barista says "prego", then the customer tells him what he wants.

Prego is used depending on the occasion and can have different meanings:
X: Grazie per avermi prestato la tua penna
Y: Prego (you're welcome)

X: Posso passare per primo?
Y: Prego (yes)

X: Io Prego spesso (to pray)



I'm passionate about sharing the beauty of the Italian language and culture with others. My goal is to help remove communication barriers by teaching Italian properly and effectively.   
Born and raised in Italy, I studied economics with a focus on international trade and business. I believe understanding different languages and cultures is key to opening doors in the global economy.   
Outside the  classroom, I enjoy playing drums and all types of music. I started drumming at a young age, and it has taught me that  music can connect people beyond language, transmitting emotions like telepathy.  

For me, languages are fascinating. The nuances, idioms and regional dialects all reflect the character and history of a place. I teach Italian to help share this rich cultural heritage with students and make it accessible for learners of all backgrounds.  My mission is simple: remove communication barriers and connect people through the beauty of language and transporting power of music.

Through creative lessons and a focus on effective communication, I have helped students from all over the globe boost their Italian language skills. Whether total beginners or experienced speakers, I help refine my students' knowledge and ability to converse naturally in Italian.   

Using tools like video chat and messaging apps, I provide flexible informal and formal classes to fit  the needs of my international students. I build their vocabulary and coach them on proper pronunciation, grammar and expressions to sound like a confident Italian speaker.           

Through patience, positivity and passion for the language, I motivate my students and transform their speaking ability. As  my students achieve  their language learning goals and go on to use Italian confidently in their daily lives, I feel I have helped truly connect people across borders through  shared language.

My teaching style is focused on effective communication and cultivating confidence in students. I aim to make my lessons fun and engaging through the use variety - stories, movies clips, games and interactive exercises.  
Students learn best when they are motivated and interested, so I get to know each student's goals and interests to tailor lessons that will inspire them. We have informal, conversational practice to help ideas and vocabulary stick. I provide timely feedback and encouragement to build up students' speaking skills and help them overcome any reluctance or hesitation.   
Ultimately, I want my students to feel happy and enthusiastic about speaking Italian. As they progress, I challenge them to speak more and use what they've learned outside of our lessons. My goal is for students not just to memorize words, but to leave my class with a renewed love of language and of using Italian to connect with others.

Corrado Zocco

In Rome I achieved my bachelor's degree in English and  Chinese language, besides a teaching certification (24 CFU) that certifies the fact that I am eligible to teach at school. During my stay in Rome, at the Sapienza University , I worked with young and adult learners of all levels, from the beginners till the advanced students, proposing them many different materials such as videos, PDF file, PPT, digital books and so on.

_____________________________________________________________________________________

My students achieved great results because of my methods  that are focused on the needs of the student who must feel comfortable when any mistake can occur, as it is only by making mistakes that a language can be learned. 

Therefore I think that when students learn a new language the conversational part deserves a lot of space to achieve the desired proficiency level, but this doesn't mean that the written part is to be neglected: each facet of a language must be learned step.

   I do provide my students all of the books and material necessary to follow my courses, whose objective is focused in acquiring not only grammar skills, but also conversational skills. We will start with very easy topics related to self introduction and greetings and later we will get more and more into the study of grammar along with the spoken language.

  All of the topics are analysed on many points, so that you will learn immediately how to use the grammar in daily life conversations.

Minha experiência é amplamente moldada por intercâmbios linguísticos, nos quais não apenas compartilhei o meu idioma, mas também aprendi outros. O fato de ter aprendido e estar aprendendo idiomas me ajuda a compreender as dificuldades dos alunos, permitindo-me compartilhar métodos que eu mesma aplico em minha vida e que têm me ajudado a tornar esse processo mais divertido.

Em minhas aulas, os alunos aprenderão a se comunicar de maneira natural, assim como os nativos, usando palavras simples do cotidiano. Exploramos desde tópicos culturais até questões mais contemporâneas. Minha abordagem visa não apenas ensinar o idioma, mas capacitar o aluno a se expressar com confiança.

I am Brazilian and from the Northeast of Brazil, but I have lived half my life in Italy. I consider myself a citizen of the world, because I carry with me a little bit of every place I have visited. I love traveling, learning about cultures and I am passionate about languages. I speak four languages and am currently studying English, which is my favorite language. I enjoy walking, practicing yoga and going to quiet places to have coffee. I also love cooking, especially sweets. Last but not least: I am an architect, I am 29 years old and I live in Italy.

My experience has been largely shaped by language exchanges, where I have not only shared my own language, but also learned others. Having learned and continuing to learn languages helps me understand the difficulties students face, allowing me to share methods that I myself apply in my life and that have helped me make this process more enjoyable.

In my classes, students will learn to communicate naturally, like native speakers, using simple, everyday words. We explore topics ranging from cultural to more contemporary issues. My approach is not just to teach the language, but to empower the student to express themselves with confidence.

Hello everyone!
I'm Daniela and an Italian native speaker.
I have lived in a number of different countries including  Italy:  Germany, United Arab Emirates and now in Spain where I  currently live. 
This multicultural journey brought me closer to studying languages, which has always been one of my passions as well as a means to integrate myself  into  a new culture.

Intro DanielaVurchio

Daniela

I started by teaching Italian to children, giving Italian tuition and helping them with their homework. 
Over time, I discovered that teaching is my true calling and I started teaching Italian to adults with different backgrounds and levels.
I received the CLTA certification from International House London. Here I learned not only the tools to facilitate learning the Italian language specifically online, but also importantly how to maintain the language learned for the long term.

My  lessons are prepared to adapt to the needs and interests of  each student and to ensure they are actively engaged throughout.  Lessons are enriched with video, audio clips and discussion on topics of interest for each student. 
If requested, we can also converse and discuss topics of general interest, eg sport, world events, cookery etc.
In the study of grammar, which is often the least "exciting" part of a language, I guide the student to deduce the grammatical rule independently and to apply it in more general contexts. Learning grammar in this way enables students to become more proficient faster and ensure the learning sticks.  
All in a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
