READING

"A Diverse Italian Class"
Our Italian class is a wonderful mix of people from different backgrounds. There are 15 students in total, and everyone has a unique story to tell. Maria is from Spain, and she loves sharing Spanish and Italian similarities. Ahmed is from Egypt, and he’s learning Italian for work. Sofia and Marco are siblings, and they always help each other during group activities.

On the first day of class, we introduced ourselves and shared why we were learning Italian. Some students want to travel to Italy, while others need it for their careers. Our teacher, Mr. Romano, encourages us to speak Italian as much as possible.

During breaks, we often chat in small groups. It’s amazing how quickly we’re becoming friends. We even plan to organize a small trip to an Italian restaurant to practice ordering food in Italian!
