Stai attento! Italian Pronunciation is critical. Not pronouncing verbs and double consonants correctly can change the meaning of words and inhibit others from understanding you.

Learn the vowels sounds and the accented vowels sounds.

"E" in Italian has a long "A" sound in English

"È" with an accent has a short "eh" sound in English.

Have questions about Italian pronunciation and grammar? Let's talk! Parliamo!

Felice dicembre 1! Iniziamo il conto alla rovescia

Felice dicembre 1! Iniziamo il conto alla rovescia a Natale. Oggi tra gli appuntamenti di insegnamento di i miei studenti ho iniziato a decorare la casa con gli addobbi natalizi.

Quali sono le tue tradizioni? Hai ancora decorato l’albero di Natale?

Helping others learn Italian brings me great joy.

Helping others learn Italian brings me great joy. I work with students on-line and in person in Italy!

Sign up for Italian Conversation Practice with Melissa — la Studentessa Matta — or sign up for Italian Language Lessons & Coaching with Melissa.

Or join me in Italy in Arezzo in June, or Lucca and Montepulciano in September to learn together in person.

I’ve heard it many times before: “I can read and understand Italian, but when I speak, I get tongue-tied!” Sound familiar? With regular “Informal Italian Conversation Chats,” you can regularly practice Italian with me, supplementing online or evening language classes.

or…

Do you need help understanding Italian grammar? Now you can schedule “Italian Language Coaching and Personalized Lessons” to help you learn the language and get answers to language questions. We will kick the tires, and check the gear box to get your Italian language “Vespa’s” motor going again!

Then come with me to Italy to take your Italian language skills further!

Visit the StudentessaMatta.com website to sign up for both online lessons and conversation practice or to sign up for one of the three Studentessa Matta Italian Immersion programs offered in 2023!

Non vedo l'ora di sentirti! Can't wait to hear from you.

A chi piace fare la spesa? Quante volte vai al sup

A chi piace fare la spesa? Quante volte vai al supermercato ogni settimana?

Sai la differenze tra "fare la spesa" e "fare spese"

Fare la spesa is basically when you go to the supermarket to buy food for your family (like on a weekly basis).

Fare spese is more like going to the mall, hanging out and going from one shop to the other, see if there is something interesting you may decide to buy (it's more the kind of shopping usually women like to do, just to give you an idea of what fare spese means).
