“I feel like I own the language, I feel like it’s a part of me now, but I still run into problems.”
In this podcast, I will discuss a few of the things that I am currently struggling with in Italian. You will get a personal look into my journey as someone trying to learn the language.
If you’re interested in learning more about that journey, you can click here.
I currently believe I am at a B2 level in Italian, which means that I am comfortable having conversations but I am unable to discuss some deeper topics because I lack the vocabulary.
In this episode, you’ll learn:
– How a lack of time can impede the language learning process
– How I’ve been resisting moving forward
– How I’ve been working to find a balance between input that I enjoy and input that pushes me to learn more
– Why it’s important to find friends you can speak with in Italian and how that process has been for me
– About my goals to speak Italian with a friend online at least once a week
– Which pieces of grammar I’m struggling with
I also want to hear about what you’re having trouble with. What’s holding you back from learning the language?

Ciao Cher,
Loved your podcast, I am also a regular reader of the local.it., I find it very informative. I to find it a struggle to get regular time to study, as there is always something else demanding my attention but I push forward., I am just a beginner nowhere near as accomplished as you are, but I am aiming to be one day.
I love Italy, the country, its language, the food and its people.
So..onward and upward
ciao bella
Athena
