How Lessons Work
Each lesson is built around a topic — the airport, the market, your family — but conversation comes first. All ages, all levels, absolute beginners very welcome.
-
One
We sit down and talk
Mostly conversation, at whatever pace suits you. I'll do the worrying about grammar.
-
Two
I bring the material
Lessons I wrote myself, on the topic we've chosen. Yours to keep and print.
-
Three
A few lines before next time
I correct them gently — mistakes are how it works.
A little about me
“You will speak Italian in your very first hour with me — and you can improve a little each week.”
I have taught Italian here in Kenosha for many years — to travelers who want to order a coffee properly in Rome, and to students who stay with me long enough to read novels.
I write my own lessons, because I was never quite happy with the textbooks. Local businesses sponsor the back page, so the material costs you nothing to print.
Bring your curiosity; I'll bring the Italian.
