Why this course
A message from Giulia
Before you decide, hear why I built Oggi Italiano — Essentials — and what makes this path different from apps and random videos.
You've probably tried learning Italian before.
Apps, random videos, maybe even a grammar book you never finished. And it didn't really stick. Not because you can't learn it — but because you didn't have a clear path.
That's exactly what this course gives you.
One course. One clear path. Real progress.
Oggi Italiano — Essentials gives you 12 video lessons, downloadable materials, and the option to add weekly live sessions with your teacher. Everything you need to start speaking.
A simple method that actually works
Three steps. One rhythm. No overwhelm.
Watch & learn
Start with 12 video lessons (20–30 min each). Clear explanations, no overload, and the freedom to pause, rewatch, and go at your own pace.
Practice live
Each week, you'll have a dedicated space where I'm there with you live. You can ask questions, clear doubts, and actually use what you've learned.Gold: small group sessionsPlatinum: private 1:1 sessions

- ✓Speak with more confidence, without freezing every time someone talks to you in Italian
- ✓Handle real-life situations in Italian, from ordering at a restaurant to asking for directions

"The 1:1 sessions made all the difference for me. Having someone correct you in real time and adapt to your level — that's what I needed to actually improve."
