Which are the first things you should learn to understand and speak Italian? 

The only way to learn this language is to practice. If you are afraid to speak, I will teach you how to be confident.   

In our first lesson I will give you some good tips to overcome this fear. Verbs are important, but words too! Italian language has a lot of words, but you don’t have to learn them all in few days. You can start from the most used words and then work hard to learn more and more. 

You can start with functional expressions, these are the best elements you can practise with me since the begininng. I am sure you will like it and enjoy yourself.

Italian is one of the most loved languages of the world and it has a lot of words. You don’t have to learn all of them immediately, but you should start memorizing some Italian words. These can come in handy if you decide to join an Italian course for beginners in Italy.

A general Italian class for all levels.

Let's talk Italian, with feedback!

If you would like help specifically with your writing in Italian, I'd be happy to help!
Maybe you have a project you're working on - an essay to write, a speech to write, or even a book! 
Whatever you're writing, I'd be happy to help correct it and help improve the language. 
If you don't have something specific you're working on but would still like to improve your writing skills in Italian, choose something to write about, write a short text and bring it to the class. We can look at it together, correct it and find ways to improve. 
If you would like some suggestions for topics and questions to inspire your writing, please message me a couple of days before the class and I will happily give you some suggestions.
