Italiano con LAURA

We recognize that while certain students have specified CEFR language levels they need to achieve within a certain timeframe, others may be seeking regular conversation sessions for language retention, and some may just be picking up Italian for the very first time. This is why our Italian courses are designed around each individual client and begin with a consultation to outline our language learning goals, and how we’re going to get there.

We hope to balance structure and play, with dynamic lessons that incorporate grammar, vocabulary, and conversation through exposure to Italian culture, traditions, and daily situations.

We are proud to now partner with Academya Lingue, a government accredited language education institution in Bologna, to offer our students officially recognized language level certifications which can be used for Italian citizenship or residency permit applications.

Special offers, bundling of lessons, and customizable lesson plans are available for associations, businesses, groups, and parents that have children studying together.

LAURA CASTELLANO

Laura’s love for Italy, and passion for sharing Italian with the world, was clear from the start. Nothing makes her happier than assisting those who are preparing to make the Bel Paese their home - and she has worked tirelessly to ensure she could not be more qualified to do so. Laura holds a master’s degree cum laude (110/110) in Italian Language Acquisition from the University of Bologna, and has obtained the DILS-PG didactic certification from the University of Foreigners of Perugia. She was previously the Italian Instructor for international students attending the University of Bologna’s Bologna Business School Masters Program, and has worked closely for years with individual clients within Bologna. These clients range from those just beginning their journey into Italiano, to those wishing to meet regularly to maintain their conversational skills, as well as professionals that need to quickly master the language for a professional environment.
