Schools/Study

My personal recommendations for Schools & Materials to Learn Italian

LEARN ITALIAN IN TUSCANY! Lucca Italian School offers not only established and effective courses of general Italian, but also personal solutions to meet the needs of the student. In our school you will find everything you need, from grammar, conversation and specific language areas, to a more “holiday” approach if you choose the course option that includes various outside activities.
I have become friends with Angelo, Daniela and Eva who manage Lucca Italian School and think their approach is molto simpatico. I first discovered them through the blog that they publish. It is absolutely delightful and I felt an instant connection. I think they do a great job. If you study with them, not only will you learn Italian, but you will learn about the lovely city of Lucca through “le escursioni culturali!”

CYBER ITALIAN.com : LEARN ITALIAN ON-LINE! I took an on-line course with Cyber Italian In May of 2009 and I thought it was wonderful! I like the idea of working on-line at my convenience & the flexibility of moving at my own pace through the well thought out Italian exercises. I thought the material was fun, whimsical & innovative and different from other courses I have tried in the past. CyberItalian mixes language learning with Italian history and cultural lessons songs and interesting insights about the country which I enjoyed and was a real plus for me!

I really enjoy using the LiveScribe Pen!
