About our workshops & webinars
At percorsoItaliano, we believe that learning Italian is more than just studying the language—it’s about immersing yourself in the culture, traditions, and way of life. That’s why we offer webinars and in-person workshops led by experienced native Italian teachers and special guests from different fields.
On this page, you’ll find everything you need to know about our interactive learning experiences, from cultural deep dives and practical language sessions to special guest talks and hands-on activities. Whether you're passionate about Italian food, history, art, or daily conversation, our workshops bring Italy to you!
webinars and in-person workshops will be announced throughout the year, so stay tuned! Grazie!

webinars & in-person WORKSHOPS DI CUCINA
L'ITALIANO IN CUCINA
When you walk in the door, you are transported to an Italian home kitchen. Cooking workshops are led not only by percorsoItaliano teachers, but also by cooking professionals, talented home cooks, and those passionate about food and regional cuisine. When possible, we try to invite people from Italy to highlight different regions and their local cuisines, which provides a great escape from the classroom.
Cooking workshops are open to students of all levels of Italian from beginner to advanced. We offer workshops during each session and they often sell out, so if you’d like to hear about them as soon as they’re announced, we encourage you to subscribe to our newsletter at the bottom of this page.

WEBINARS DI CULTURa
At percorsoItaliano, we aim to incorporate Italian culture into the language, as they are inextricably linked. Our educational, interesting, and fun culture workshops highlight this connection by offering topics that appeal to the various interests of our diverse students – architettura (architecture), musica (music), cinema (movies), moda (fashion) and more. We always explore the regions of Italy, with the presenter highlighting his/her origins. In addition to learning about a new subject in a setting outside the typical classroom, students also have the opportunity to improve their Italian through related vocabulary, idioms, and more, all of which will enhance their future experiences in Italy and their interactions with Italians.

WEBINARS DI LINGUA
These workshops allow students to become more comfortable with the language by putting grammar points into practice through drills and other exercises. Because a particular grammar point can often take a while to sink in and there may not be enough regular class time to practice, we offer language workshops to give students the opportunity to concentrate on a specific subject.

COSA DICONO I NOSTRI STUDENTI
“A marvelous array of stimulating cultural and cooking workshops in which I found myself amongst others who, like myself, love Italy and all things Italian. Roberta has made us feel like part of one big Italian family.”
“The availability of cultural immersion in films, regional cooking, and weekend workshops all in Italian are challenging and informative.”
