Italian Lessons For Mum Georgia Gunning
-
- Educação
Ciao!
I'm Georgia, from Georgia's Online Academy of Language (or GOALs) and this podcast is dedicated to my mum, who is working hard to learn some Italian for when she comes to visit me in Italy. I want to help, so I thought why not make some beginner Italian lessons with useful words and phrases?
This is for my mum, but if you find it helpful, why not follow along too?
Cominciamo! Let's get started!
