Ep 1 | How I Learned to Speak Italian (and Why I Only Teach What Works IRL)
From awkward restaurant moments in Spain to discovering how to actually get by in Italy without studying grammar for years. You can experience this episode two ways 🇮🇹 watch the video (with all the Italian gestures!) or listen on the go like an audio-only podcast. Transcript:Ciao! Hey, I'm Amanda. Sono Amanda. This is the audio-only version so you can listen anywhere. If you wanna watch me with all the Italian gestures, head to the video version.”I'm from San Diego. When I first moved to Madrid, Spain, I was studying complicated grammar and it was super awkward every time I went to order food and I couldn't say the right thing when they asked if I wanted a receipt. What I was learning wasn't practical in real life. I wanted to get by and not feel like I was a dumb tourist. Since working in Italy since 2018, people have asked me, how long did it take you to get fluent? And I'll tell you, I'm not. I just know what to say and when to say it. Now, after teaching languages to people all over the world since 2016, I figured out what actually works. I help you learn just what you need in Italy. No grammar, no stress. You'll sound like a local and be travel fluent with a fraction of the time and effort you think it takes. If you can say ciao, you can speak Italian and I'll show you how. Grab my free guide with the 10 phrases you need to know in Italy.
