Let’s Learn Italian Colors in Space! - Italian language and art class

In this one-time course, students will learn the colors in Italian: purple, white, black, green, blue, yellow through a fun art project! These are the colors we will use in our project. We will use a mix of Italian and English to help the young learners grasp the vocabulary and have a fun art class together. They will also learn the word for “planet” in Italian! First, they will learn the colors through fun slides and games, then they will complete an art project about space! This class is for total beginners or just to review! The colors we learn are the colors we will use in class to complete our art project together. The class will be structured in the following way: introductions, vocabulary introduction, quick game, project, final game, goodbye.

Teacher expertise and credentials

Hello! I am an Italian-American teacher who grew up between Florence, Italy and Pennsylvania USA. I am an Italian as a second language and ESL teacher with over six years of teaching experience. I am a native Italian and English speaker, and grew up in a bilingual household. I love teaching kids of all ages and throughout my teaching career; I have taught students from ages 3-18. I have been teaching Italian on Outschool for two years and love sharing my passion for languages with my students. I currently create and teach Italian and English classes in creative ways through interactive slides, games, art, and more. My greatest passion is teaching, and I want to make the classroom a fun environment for my students!

I have a B.A. and M.A. in Communication Science, a TESOL certificate, and an Italian language C2 certification. I recently graduated with my Master's in Marketing Management. I also have worked with children for years teaching multiple age groups and many subjects in English and Italian. I have created my own curriculum and have a unique teaching style which follows a hands-on approach.

My teaching style is fun, engaging and personal. I want to get to know my students and I want their class time with me to be a complete learning experience that focuses on hands-on learning.

So why study languages? Why study Italian or English? Language development is fundamental for young learners. Foreign language studies also peak curiosity in learners, both younger and older. Italian is a useful language nowadays, not just for the language but also to improve logic, language arts, and it can serve as a starting point for other Latin languages. English is a necessary language today for life and for work. I hope to bring my passion for this beautiful language into your child's life. 

I offer a variety of courses. I love Outschool, because I can teach my language, but also my passions, such as marketing, social studies, and more! I hope to see your learner in my classroom soon.
