  • Italian 1: Beginner

    Anonymous review on 3/8/2018
    I honestly just wanted to learn about the language as much as possible as I spend 4-6 weeks a year in Italy and I felt we didn't spend enough time in that department. Discussing the Italian hip hop scene was interesting, along with some of the current events, but I felt we spent way too much time on that as my expectation was we would be learning the language. Overall, I'm somewhat disappointed as I wanted to come away with more language and I feel I learned very little.

    My husband and I took this class to help with future travels to Italy. The class was interactive and we are now more confident in our verb conjugation. We feel like we got a good foundation that we can build off of in the future. We'll be more confident next time we travel to Italy.
