What Our Students Say
Claudine B.
I had always wanted to learn Italian and ItaLingua has made that dream come true. The teachers are all native Italian, very friendly, and focused on getting all students, even the shy ones, engaged in conversations and speaking. Contrary to many online self learning tools out there, ItaLingua provides students with a solid understanding of Italian grammar, at a pace that is not overwhelming. After completing all the levels offered by the school, I switched to one on one private classes which have been amazing. My teacher has become my friend and I truly look forward to my class every week. At the end of the day, you will get from the class as much as you put in. I highly recommend the school. After close to 4 years of learning Italian through the school, I decided to move to Italy and I have ItaLingua to thank for making this possible.

ItaLingua is a welcoming place to learn Italian. All the teachers I've had over the past four years studying there have been excellent. They all have great teaching skills, are professional, native speakers and are friendly and supportive. (Also the classes are fun!) I especially like the "no English" approach, right from the first beginning classes. I took my first trip to Italy in October 2021. After nearly four years studying Italian at ItaLingua, I had a great time navigating the language while I was there! Got lots of compliments on my Italian from natives (though of course I am far from fluent).

Can't praise them enough! - I've been taking classes at ItaLingua since 2011, and can't praise them enough. The proof is in the speaking: After only two beginner classes, my husband and I were able to have extended conversations on our next visit to Italy. All the teachers are smart, lively, and patient (though Francesca is the absolute best!) and they do a great job helping you understand and participate. Beyond the language, beautiful and interesting as it is, you learn a ton about the country and the people. Very highly recommended!

This school has been amazing! - Our instructor Mattia in the Berkeley campus was fantastic! He created an environment that made it easy to learn the language! His insight and teaching abilities made 2 hrs of class fly by! Lots of laughter and encouragement. His abilities have helped me uncover a real understanding of the language. I'd recommend this class to everyone! Thanks!

ItaLingua is a fabulous resource. - I have taken Italian lessons there for a couple of years now, and am quite pleased with my progress as an older man learning a new language. The instructors are engaged and enthusiastic - Yay, Francesca! - and the students are encouraged to converse in the language. If you want to learn Italian, this is the place to go!
