CIAO! Taalcafé Haarlem

In-person Italian, Spanish, and Dutch language exchange in Haarlem

CIAO! Taalcafé | Italiano, Español, Nederlands Language Exchange


Meet new people, practise the language you are learning, and help others practise yours in a relaxed and guided language exchange.

A guided language exchange

☛ Practise Italian, Spanish, or Dutch in a relaxed and supportive environment.

☛ Take part in guided activities designed to get everyone talking and interacting.

☛ Meet other language learners and exchange languages, experiences, and ideas.

☛ Build confidence using a foreign language while helping others practise yours.


More than just a language exchange

CIAO! Taalcafé is a 90-minute language exchange designed for people who want to practise Italian, Spanish, or Dutch while meeting others who are also learning a foreign language. Whether you're practising Italian, Spanish, or Dutch, you'll have the opportunity to use the language you're learning while supporting someone else who is learning yours.

The language café is suitable for learners who already have a basic knowledge of Italian, Spanish, or Dutch and would like to put their skills into practice in a relaxed and social setting. The programme consists of three independent Saturday sessions:

Practise a language, meet people, connect

Learning a language is not only about vocabulary and grammar. It's about having conversations, making connections, and finding the confidence to use the language with real people.

At CIAO! Taalcafé, you'll meet others who have also chosen to learn a foreign language and who understand the challenges — and the rewards — of that journey. You'll practise together, support each other, and share the experience of learning and using a new language.

It's a chance to step away from textbooks and language apps and actually use the language you've been learning.

Guided by native-speaking teachers

CIAO! Taalcafé is hosted by two experienced language teachers: Nomad Teachers Giovanna and Peter, native speakers of Italian and Dutch, and speakers of Spanish.

Their role is to guide the session, create opportunities for interaction, and help participants feel comfortable using their target language. With prepared activities and conversation prompts, you'll never be left wondering what to talk about or how to get the conversation started.

The result is a relaxed but purposeful language exchange where everyone has the opportunity to participate.

Language exchange in Haarlem

CIAO! Taalcafé takes place in a comfortable language school in the historic city centre of Haarlem, just a short walk from the city's cafés, shops, museums, and public transport.

Super fun and educational course via Zoom with Giovanna from Nomad Teachers! So far we have learned a lot and we have also laughed a lot, nice atmosphere.
— Petra (level A2+)
The enthusiasm really shines through, she is an organized person, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. And she also knows how to handle technology very well, in this case, Zoom. She always has an answer to our questions, with good examples. The best thing, in her case, is that she also masters Dutch quite well, so if you don’t understand the explanation in Italian, you’ll always get there. I will definitely be happy to take another online course with her. Thank you very much Giovanna for your help!

Il Festival di Sanremo

ITALIAN LANGUAGE AND CULTURE WORKSHOP

Join us for a fun and engaging workshop where you’ll dive into the world of the Festival di Sanremo, Italy’s most famous and beloved song contest. Through readings, listenings, quizzes, and games, you’ll discover why Sanremo is much more than a music festival and why it plays such an important role in Italian culture, language, and society.

You’ll learn about iconic songs and singers, typical expressions used during the festival, and the traditions, rituals, and debates that surround this unique event—all while improving your Italian language skills. Everything will be explained in a clear and accessible way, with vocabulary that’s especially useful for talking about music, opinions, and pop culture in Italian.

The workshop is open to anyone with a curious mind! Whether you already watch Sanremo every year or have only heard about it, there’s always something new to discover. It’s a great way to immerse yourself in contemporary Italian culture and a perfect complement to any Italian language course you’re already taking.

And to end the workshop in true Sanremo style, in the final part you’ll have the chance to comment like a real Italian viewer: express opinions, agree or disagree, and react to performances just as Italians do during the festival.

workshop IN CLASS

This Italian culture workshop is in-person in Hoofddorp (The Netherlands) at Talenmeester. You don’t have to be a Talenmeester student, the workshop is open to anyone interested.

Halfway through the day, you can enjoy a delicious lunch (included in the price) and chat with your fellow students.

Your Italian Teacher

You will be learning Italian with Nomad Teacher Giovanna, qualified and experienced language teacher, and native Italian speaker.



We have been taking online lessons for a few years now. We really enjoy it because Giovanna prepares the lessons perfectly and adapts to our level. We find the Dieci teaching method absolutely perfect because it also covers cultural differences and Italian customs. This way, we get an even better understanding of the culture and the differences compared to the Netherlands, so that we are perfectly prepared when we are back in our house in Italy!
— Jens and Iris (Level A2)
I have now taken two group courses with Giovanna, one on location, and one via Zoom. Both fine! Giovanna is a sparkling teacher who picks up on what you already know and what you don’t know yet. I already spoke some Italian, but I have learned a lot. The Zoom lessons are clearly and creatively supported with words and images and afterward, all participants are sent words and expressions that were discussed in the lesson. Useful! I am very satisfied and will soon participate in a third course.
— Els
In the two years that I have been taking lessons, my Italian has improved enormously. The lessons have given me a grammatical basis which makes me much better at expressing myself. This makes me feel more confident and I am more likely to start a conversation in Italian, which makes being in Italy even more fun.
Giovanna’s lessons are not only useful but also fun and above all very relaxed. You will not only learn the language but gradually also everything about the country, the culture and… the cuisine!

The enthusiasm really shines through, she is an organized person, enthusiastic and knowledgeable. And she also knows how to handle technology very well, in this case, Zoom. She always has an answer to our questions, with good examples. The best thing, in her case, is that she also masters Dutch quite well, so if you don’t understand the explanation in Italian, you’ll always get there.

Your Italian Teacher

You will be learning Italian with Nomad Teacher Giovanna, qualified and experienced language teacher, and native Italian speaker.



I have now taken two group courses with Giovanna, one on location, and one via Zoom. Both fine! Giovanna is a sparkling teacher who picks up on what you already know and what you don’t know yet. I already spoke some Italian, but I have learned a lot. The Zoom lessons are clearly and creatively supported with words and images and afterward, all participants are sent words and expressions that were discussed in the lesson. Useful! I am very satisfied and will soon participate in a third course.
— Els
In the two years that I have been taking lessons, my Italian has improved enormously. The lessons have given me a grammatical basis which makes me much better at expressing myself. This makes me feel more confident and I am more likely to start a conversation in Italian, which makes being in Italy even more fun.
Giovanna’s lessons are not only useful but also fun and above all very relaxed. You will not only learn the language but gradually also everything about the country, the culture and… the cuisine!

As a gift for my sister in law I scheduled a pasta workshop to make gnocchi for absolute beginners of Italian to do together. This was a super fun and relaxed experience and so much fun to do as a team - making the pasta, participating in the language exercises and then of course the ritual of eating the pasta. Chiara en Giovanna made it fun and interactive! Thanks for the great activity!
— Charlotte
It was great fun for old & young and we ended up with the fridge full of gnocchi for the week to come.
— Marta
The gnocchi-workshop of Giovanna and Chiara was interesting, cozy, and informative. And after that, you can enjoy your homemade pasta! Highly recommended!
