Program Description

Event Details

Interested in learning the Italian language or brushing up on your language skills? Join us in the Italian Group, which meets weekly.

The first Thursday of each month, the Italian Group will have a 2-hour instructor-led class from 10:00am-12:00pm. On the remaining Thursdays each month, students are welcome to gather for a one-hour Conversation Circle program from 10:00am-11:00am to practice speaking Italian with other members of the community. The Conversation Circle meetings are not instructor-led. All levels of Italian language learners are welcome in this Italian Group program.

We will be following the textbook "Easy Italian: Step-by-Step" throughout the program. The library has a copy of the book that can be referenced in the library, but cannot be checked out. We recommend purchasing a copy of the book if you would like a copy to follow along at home.

September Meetings:

In September, we will focus on the content in the textbook's Preface section, particularly the sections on "Stress and Written Accentuation" and "Greetings and Salutations".

  • Thursday, September 7th, 10:00am-12:00pm: Instructor-Led Class (covering the content in the textbook's Preface)
  • Thursday, September 14th, 10:00am-11:00am: Conversation Circle (not instructor-led)
  • Thursday, September 21st, 10:00am-11:00am: Conversation Circle (not instructor-led)
  • Thursday, September 28th, 10:00am-11:00am: Conversation Circle (not instructor-led)

By registering for the Italian Group, you will receive a reminder the day before each scheduled meeting through the end of the year. If you are on the waitlist, you are more than welcome to try and get a seat at the start of the class.
