Can you guess the meaning of concerto, poeta, problema, melodia or futuro? Easy, right? In fact, so many English and Italian words share similar roots that we bet you can understand more Italian already than you ever thought possible! So, why not take it to the next level and join the growing international community of Italian speakers? Get started with us at Listen & Learn: our teachers are language professionals with extensive experience guiding students to fluency.
For instance, we can help you grasp the meaning and use of articles in Italian. Unlike English which only uses one article, Italian uses six to indicate number and gender. And you will learn many other useful grammar rules in your lessons with us, like that adjectives always come after the noun and never before. Does it sound boring? Don’t worry, our lessons are not focused on learning only language rules or memorising long lists of words. Instead, our native-speaking instructors will prepare interactive, fun lessons where you will learn by becoming familiar with interesting resources, like songs, movies and series.
Learn Italian and you’ll be able to interact with the almost 1,500 speakers who already reside in Reading on a whole new level. Furthermore, practising with other learners and native speakers will take your skills and confidence to the next level. So, don’t hesitate to join language exchange groups around the city, like the Reading Italian Meetup that organises meetings every week.
Are you ready to get started? Contact us at Listen & Learn and you will acquire not only the formal aspects of Italian but also non-verbal skills, such as gestures that are essential to communicate with others. Soon, you’ll be ready to order delicious Italian dishes, like gnocci or bresaola, using the excellent pronunciation skills you learn with us!
These Italian lessons are more general in nature and are targeted at students who have a whole range of different needs. While all beginners level students can expect to cover Survival Italian—required for short visits to a country where English may not be spoken and/or the intention is to make good contacts with the local population—students then generally progress in different directions depending on their needs. Typical students include those buying property overseas, spouses of overseas nationals, people about to set off on that long-awaited world trip, Italian-culture enthusiasts and those who are keen to pass a particular Italian examination.

The people who would benefit the most from these Italian tutorials are those who feel they need to learn Italian to help them out in their business lives. For starters, learning salutations and business etiquette is essential. Once these have been practised, then reading and writing lessons can begin. Typical studiers have been those involved in international imports/exports, negotiations and acquisitions, multinational companies requiring another language and those working in any way with international governments and relevant administration. Even our simplest lesson for beginners will have students finishing the lessons with basic telephone and e-mail Italian as well as survival Italian should a visit to the country be necessary.

Two or more people can benefit from studying Italian together as these Italian lessons are also offered to groups (Two-to-One Italian Lessons or Small Group In-Company Italian Lessons). Every student must have the same degree of knowledge of the language, the same business or language needs and the ability to study at the same time and place as everybody else. The booking has to be made for all students at the same time. Listen & Learn does not advocate group sessions of more than 6-8 people, though Taster Italian Lessons can be experienced by up to 12 people.

My Listen & Learn tutor, Yann, made a huge effort to help me understand how the grammar works, and how to say things properly – these aren’t things you can learn from a book
