Are you planning a trip to Italy? Then you need some language foundation to help you on your exciting journey!

After a full year of almost no travel, finally everything is starting to open up. Italy has opened its borders to most countries, and this summer many tourists are expected to visit this beautiful land! 

Italy in the summer has so much to offer: the unique Amalfi coast, beautiful lakes such as Como and Garda, magnificent cities such as Rome, Venice, Florence... and the list goes on and on :) 

However, sometimes tourists forget that in Italy it’s full of Italians (surprise!), and only 15% of us are able to communicate in English! Italians love their native language, and most of us did not pay much attention during English classes in school. 

So, if you are planning to come to Italy at some point, my suggestion for you is to learn at least the basics of the language so that you will be able to survive and thrive in Italy! It makes your trip much more enjoyable, you will feel more comfortable and you won’t be stressed out by not understanding the language. I wish I had followed my own advice when I went to China for the first time. I landed at the airport without speaking a single word, and that resulted in me being stressed out and confused pretty much all the time. Also, that negatively affected my perception of the country and did not allow me to grasp it’s cultural traits at all. 

I don’t want that to happen to you, and that’s the reason why I created Italian For Tourists: a situation-based course that will empower you with all the key sentences, words and expressions to understand and be understood in Italian! Most of the videos are based on situations that might happen to you. For example, how to order food at a restaurant, how to take a taxi, how to take an espresso at the bar and so many more situations. Also, to complement the situation-based videos there are also some grammar and pronunciation videos that will help you to build the basics of the language. Finally, the course is self-paced, so you can watch it whenever you want according to your own schedule, even during your trip!

So join me in this adventure and let’s learn Italian together, andiamo! Let’s go!

Ciao, from Davide!

I am a native Italian and I was born and raised in Italy. I have been teaching Italian for more than 5 years to people from all over the world. I had the pleasure of helping students coming from 80+ different countries. From big countries such a US, UK, Australia, Canada, Germany, India...but also from very small ones such as Panama, Iceland, Belgium, Singapore etc...

Initially, I was exclusively teaching with Skype sessions, but I soon realized that I wanted to help more people in learning Italian. That’s why I started offering online courses and my students are loving them!

I believe that my online Italian courses are very effective because you can follow the lessons when it’s most convenient for you and you can review the concepts as many times as you want. In other words, you learn at your own pace with no pressure and without the need of attending a class.

And what's even better is that you are not alone because you will get access to groups of like-minded students who want to learn Italian as much as you do. Also, you can text me and ask me questions anytime, I love answering them! Let's go and learn together!

Face everyday situations that you can encounter in your life, like ordering food and drinks, booking a taxi or a hotel, reading a restaurant menu, asking for directions, expressing love words to your partner, and much more. 

Understand the logic and the structure of the language, and you will realize how everything will start to make sense.

Have basic conversations in Italian and read simple texts or articles in Italian. 

Understand the main cultural traits of Italians, so that you will feel more at home and you will avoid yourself embarrassing situations. 

Course Content

The course is designed for English speakers. As English and Italian are quite different languages, in most of the course I speak in English, so it will be easier for you to understand the main concepts, and it will make the transition to Italian smoother and easier to understand.

No previous knowledge of Italian is required. This course is made for any student who wants to improve it's Italian in specific scenario that might happen in Italy. For example: at the airport, at the hotel, at the restaurant...However, if you are already an advanced level student, this course might not be for you since no advanced grammatical concepts or vocabulary are covered. 

The topics we cover are:

• Pronunciation: you will learn from a native speaker how to pronounce the most common Italian words. You will be able to master the most peculiar sounds in Italian.
