I like to share the strong interest I have in Italian language, words meaning and origin.. I like to transfer grammar concepts in easy and logical ways, so it does feel interesting and not boring.. I am myself passionate of languages and I like to allow the learner's learning flow to happen, to become more fluent

I started back at University, about 20 years ago, with several projects with foreigners in Italy (Siena, precisely).

It can be for work, as some people moved to Italy for work, or maybe they retired in Italy and need to be able to communicate.

Some want to learn for love, maybe their partner is Italian..

It depends on the learner's mother tongue. In general, the more languages you know, the easier it is to learn a new language.

Italian has much in common with Spanish and French, so if you speak fluently one of these languages it can be easier. Motivation is still for me the strongest pull to learn Italian, and any other language, though.

Cinema, food, traditions..
