Learn Italian

Interested in world affairs, business, design or culinary arts? Maybe you have a passion for art history, ancient civilizations or architecture? Or perhaps you just understand how important it is to know more than one language and to appreciate other cultures in our ever-changing world? Whether you want to chat with Nonna in her native tongue, prepare for a trip to Florence or the Eternal City, or just delve into the rich cultural heritage of bella Italia, Lago del Bosco’s Virtual Village will provide you with the tools you need.

Lago del Bosco’s Virtual Village began in 2020 and allows villagers to learn Italian all year round. From one-week sessions in the summer to full academic-year programs, villagers are able to be immersed in the Italian culture and language from the comfort of their home.

Activities

Enhance your language skills with active learning! At a Lago del Bosco Virtual Village session, you may learn through making music, creating art and playing sports.

Activities are based in Italian culture and utilized to further villagers’ language acquisition.

Tech Requirements

In order to best take advantage of this interactive experience, you will need the resources necessary for e-learning (reliable internet access, a device per villager with a webcam and microphone) and any individual adaptive devices needed; headphones are recommended but not required. Use of Chromebooks is not recommended as villagers cannot access all the features of the Virtual Village platform. As a program of Concordia College, we are coordinating our efforts with the college so that all virtual platforms will have the necessary and appropriate security features to protect the privacy of users, including compliance with FERPA and COPPA.
