• For those who enjoy going to Italy and wish they could speak at least a few words to the Italians in their own language
• For anyone who would like to be less reliant on tour guides, or feel more confident about exploring Italy away from the crowds
• For those that want to learn a new language and keep their minds active
• For those that love the lyrical qualities of the Italian language

This group is for anyone who has an interest in learning Italian, but has no, or very little knowledge of the language. You will learn greetings and when to use them, how to ask for and understand directions, how to talk about yourself and ask questions of the people you meet, and how to order food and drinks when you are out and about. The emphasis is on speaking, rather than writing, so be prepared to get your mouth (and your hands) moving!
