I Moved to Italy and Learned Italian

In this video, I share my full experience studying Italian at a language school while living in Italy for 8 months. I cover what to expect as a beginner, why immersion helps (and when it doesn’t), how language school can make or break your progress, and what surprised me most along the way. Whether you're considering moving to Italy, applying for a language visa, or just want to understand how people actually become fluent, this video will give you a clear and honest picture. 📍What You’ll Learn:

  • What it’s like to attend a language school in Italy

  • How immersion affects language learning

  • The psychological ups and downs of learning a new language- Dunning-Kruger Effect

  • The hidden cultural insights you only get by learning in context

  • Why fluency isn’t the end goal — and what really matters instead
