This class is just specifically about Christmas in Italy and understanding how to say some Christmas terms in Italian. Homeworks are optional. This class costs more than my other Italian for Beginners series because it is one more day (8 instead of 7) and I give many more print outs of coloring sheets, crafts, pdfs of vocabulary, etc. Day 1: Learn how to say some colors & Happy Christmas in Italian; Learn how to say Santa, Elves, Fairy, Snowman, and Christmas Tree; and look at some photographs of Italy during the holidays Homework: Color by number 5 Christmas coloring sheets (that have instructions in Italian) & do the attached crafts Day 2: Learn some Christmas Italian traditions (the Nativity, food, desserts) and learn how to read some sentences in Italian that refer to Christmas.

Teacher expertise and credentials
Bachelor's Degree from North Carolina State University
In high school, I was only offered Spanish. I believe that taking foreign language classes opens the doors to many opportunities. My love for languages has continued to grow and at university, I took Italian. I now give students the opportunity to learn a language that they are interested in and make learning fun. I have even been known to take facts and put them into a tune to help memorize them easier!Reviews
