Join us once a month, on Friday evening, for an Italian Book Club designed for lower intermediate learners! Each month you will read a short Italian text - a story or an excerpt - on your own schedule. Then we will meet online for a two-hour session to discuss new words and grammar in context, explore characters and themes, and practice speaking in a supportive group. Between meetings, you can stay connected in our private Microsoft Teams space, post questions, share insights, and chat in small groups any time before or after the sessions. Whether you are looking to boost your confidence in using the language or simply love Italian culture, this club offers a relaxed, engaging way to improve your skills and connect with fellow learners. Just bring your enthusiasm and your curiosity!
