Italian is the official language of Italy, San Marino, and Ticino in Switzerland, and is the fourth most studied language in the world. As of 2018, around 70 million people in the world speak Italian and about 500,000 of them live in the Chicago area, according to the 2011 American Census. The first Italian to come to what would become Chicago was Enrico Tonti, a Neapolitan soldier in the service of the French. In the 1800s, thousands of Italians settled in Chicago and, since then, the city and its diverse communities have not stopped growing. So, taking an Italian course in Chicago is a great way to participate in the vibrant Italian community that thrives in the city. Contact us today and let’s get started learning Italian!
Learn Italian for Work: Learning Italian in Chicago can give a boost to your career. Did you know that the total Italian imports to Illinois in 2020 amounted to more than $2 million? The top import categories in the last few years have been aircraft parts, machinery parts, pharmaceuticals, organic chemicals, and vehicles. So, those working in these fields can find learning Italian very useful to broaden their professional horizons. And if you are actively looking for a new job, you should get in touch with the Italian Trade Agency on Michigan Avenue, an organization that promotes the internationalization of Italian companies by providing information, support, and advice to Italian and foreign businesses. Also, there are an estimated 75 Italian companies in greater Chicago, including Alitalia, Amplifon S.p.A, Armani, Barilla, and Cosmed, which are always looking for bilingual speakers to add to their teams.

Learn Italian for Social: Those who would like to meet new people with a similar passion for the Italian culture and language can join the Chicago Italian Language Meetup Group. The objective of the group is to speak Italian and have some fun. Their weekly meetings last two hours, and they are usually held at themed Italian restaurants around the city, such as the Italian Village Restaurant on Monroe Street, or Quartino Ristorante on State Street. There, you can order delicious gnocchi, spaghetti or cagnoli using the Italian language skills you acquire with us at Language Trainers! And you can also attend Ciao Chicago events and seminars with your new friends: Enjoy current exhibits as well as special art installations that include guest speakers and presentations. These are excellent opportunities to get in touch with Italian native speakers and further practice what you learn in your language course.
Learn Italian for Culture: Chicago is also one of the hubs of Italian American culture, with Little Italy at its epicenter. In addition to restaurants, this neighborhood has churches founded by Mother Cabrini, and it even has the National Italian-American Sports Hall of Fame, with exhibits honoring greats like Joe DiMaggio and Vince Lombardi. And if you are into the Italian Opera, you can go and enjoy the shows organized by the Lyric Opera of Chicago, an institution dedicated to producing and performing consistently thrilling, entertaining, and thought-provoking opera. Most of the songs are performed in Italian, so you will be able to make the most out of this experience after taking some lessons with us at Language Trainers. And if you are a cinema lover, enjoy movie night at Sentieri Italiani on Broadway Street, featuring the latest Italian films, many of which have not yet been released elsewhere in the U.S. Viewing is followed by a lively discussion of the film in Italian, so take advantage of this opportunity to put the language to use!
