About this Event
Join Speakitaly NYC’s Summer Travel Crash Course, a practical and immersive 4-6 week Italian group program designed specifically for travelers.
This course is not about grammar — it’s about real-life survival Italian. Whether you’re renting a car in Rome, catching a train to Florence, checking into your hotel in Naples, or ordering lunch in a small Sicilian town’s trattoria, this course prepares you step by step.
Choose the format that works for you:
Attend in person in NYC for a dynamic classroom experience, or join us online from anywhere and learn comfortably from home. The content and level of interaction remain equally engaging in both formats.
With small group classes, you’ll receive personalized attention from experienced instructors who understand what travelers truly need.
Sessions: 90 minutes, once a week, for 4 weeks with the option to add 2 extra weeks if you like the topics. You cannot pick and choose, this is a full 4 week course + a 2 week add on option.
Format: In-person or live online (your choice)
Materials: PDF workbook included
Spots are limited to keep groups small and interactive. Book your seat today and choose the format that fits your summer — online or in person — and get ready to explore Italy with confidence.
