Ciao, mi chiamo Lucia. I always wanted to know where Marinara is from. What are the different types of pasta? How to make fresh ravioli? This class teaches you how to make fresh pasta and a sauce to season it from scratch. We will make the sauce for seasoning our pasta or the filling for the ravioli. We will make fresh pasta from scratch. We will be hands-on with this class, with verbal and visual instruction. I will give students instructions, they will watch my demonstration, then immediately apply what they have learned. I will guide them through the entire process together as a class. Adult supervision is strongly recommended while using the electric mixer and stove. The supply list and the recipe will be provided upon enrollment.
Learning Goals
In this 1 day camp, learners will cook Italian recipes from scratch, they will learn kneading techniques and also learn some fun facts about Italy as well as the origins of the recipe they will be making. It will be a fun way to explore another country and culture through cooking and fun facts. They will also learn about the different sauce types to use with each pasta shape.

Parental Guidance
Safety is always the number one priority with our children, especially when in the kitchen. The students will learn proper knife skills and how to safely handle and use a knife. When we are using the stove it is imperative that the children are safe and have an adult nearby to oversee them during these times. I will be sure to go over and explain how we work around a stove and how to use proper safety measures when cooking on a stove.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Hello! My name is Lucia, and I am an Italian and English language teacher. Born in Italy, I moved to the US as a child and made it my home. I am a native Italian speaker fluent in English, which I learned as a second language. Drawing from my own bilingual journey, I'm eager to share the effective tools and tips that helped me master English.
For the past 15 years, I have refined my teaching methodology through a variety of class settings and educational environments. My expertise includes a diverse range of tailored courses: language and cultural immersion for children aged 6-12; interactive sessions that combine Italian language lessons with cultural and culinary experiences for all ages; conversational Italian classes tailored to individual needs; academic lectures at Lake Michigan College; and foundational Italian at Lincoln Elementary School.
Additionally, I have taught English to my children and now extend this legacy to the new generation of my family, providing online lessons to my grandchildren and nephews in Italy.
I look forward to helping you embark on your language-learning journey. Ciao, a presto!Reviews
