I highly recommend Speakitalynyc . Raffaella was super kind, she promptly got back to me and solved all the problems I had fast and efficiently and I am so grateful for the excellent job she provided to me . She is very professional, comunicative and always ready to answer my questions and make me feel like I was a special customer. It was my first time working with Raffaella. She exceeded my expectations. I highly recommend SpeakItaly!

I have taken Italian lessons from Speakitaly for several years. It is a fabulous group of teachers who work hard at providing great instruction while making learning fun. I recommend Speakitaly without any hesitation. You won’t be disappointed.

I have been studying with Riccardo Costa for over a year now. Having had several Italian instructors previously, I can finally say that I’m in the hands of a true teacher. Riccardo is organized, thoughtful, firm when needed, and always makes the teaching session lively and interesting. His command of the English language is excellent; he understands nuance and instructs students how to transfer that to Italian. My Italian has markedly improved under his guidance and tutelage. I cannot recommend him highly enough.

My 5+ years studying with SpeakItaly were excellent and good value. I learned a lot, had fun and made some new friends. All my teachers were excellent. I will most likely return someday.

Speakitaly has been assisting our family many years now. First for my son to learn Italian, getting their Italian passports appts fast tracked, and then for myself, helping me through the process to get my on citizenship through marriage. Maria Rafaella is well informed and very helpful through all stages. I have loved all the teachers we have been in contact with. Tiziana especially is incredibly patient, warm and wise. I thank Speakitaly for their expertise and efficiency navigating all the ups and downs for our Italo-Americano famiglia. Grazie Mille !

Highly recommended. They coached my spouse to prepare him for the mandatory Italian language test for Italian citizenship applicants. He passed it with flying colors. Couldn’t be happier for the service received and any prouder for my husband’s achievement.

I used them for translation services (English to Italian) of official documents and couldn’t be more satisfied. Not only was the work done well but they were finished 2 days earlier than promised. Very easy to work with, fair pricing and gentilissima!! Recommend highly.

Speakitaly NYC comes from the love for Italy. Raffaella, the founder, has always believed in the power of communication to get to know other cultures and discover new ways of thinking. She raised Speakitaly to take the learning experience to another level, creating a safe space to learn and share. We are a community, and this is what really sets us apart from other language institutes. Raffaella works every day to develop key approaches that help students go from a novice to a proficiency level.

Uno, due, tre… Have you ever wanted to learn another language and don’t feel like a fish out of water when discovering another country? That is what our founder Raffaella Galliani always had in her heart since she was a young learner, and this is why Speakitaly exists.
