ITALIAN SPOTLIGHT: MEET WILLA!

Today’s newsletter is all about Italian for kids! If you’ve been thinking about Italian for your child, keep reading—because I’ve got a way to get them started with our new Italian teacher, Clara!

And if you’re an adult looking to learn, don’t miss the special Espresso Break section at the end.

But first, let’s celebrate Willa!

Willa is one of our incredible Italian learners, and she’s making amazing progress! She has been learning with Language Mindset for about a year, starting in group classes before transitioning to private lessons. She already had some Italian experience, but what truly helped her level up? Our books and real conversation practice!

A Big Milestone: Willa just finished reading The Word Thief in Italian—fluently and with confidence. 🎉

What makes Willa such an inspiring learner?

• She reads in Italian with ease
• She’s always ready to respond in Italian
• She has a true love for the characters and stories
• She easily identifies key parts of a sentence—actions, descriptions
• She speaks in Italian in our classes because she's comfortable

Beyond Italian, Willa is an incredibly creative kid who loves fashion design. She brings so much energy and adventure into everything she does. We are so proud of her!
