Throughout the year, Filitalia International & Chapters offers 8 week sessions that are easy to manage and make learning Italian fun! Our language classes are taught by qualified Italian speakers who have a passion for Italy as well as teaching; they are patient and care about your progress in class.

You can also receive a certificate of completion upon graduating a session. Many students work in a field requiring Italian or attend college for international careers. Filitalia is here to accommodate you, at very affordable rates. Our mission is to spread the Italian language and culture to all, without distinction of level of income and education.
We offer classes for adults at all levels. In addition to the standard classes, private lessons and online lessons are also available for $50 per 1 hour lesson — all dates and times to be decided between the instructor and student.

I advocate an eclectic approach in the classroom. I bring enthusiasm, excitement and energy con brio to la bella lingua.
