About the School

Italiano con Manisha was founded in 2021 in London, after years of working with language schools and online students from all over the world. While teaching in traditional settings, I kept noticing the same pattern: students were progressing through levels and “doing everything right”, yet they still felt blocked when it came to real conversations.

During the pandemic, I began sharing short Italian lessons on TikTok and Instagram, focused on how Italian is actually spoken in everyday life. The response was immediate. That’s when it became clear: the problem wasn’t motivation or ability, but how Italian is usually taught!

My courses are designed for students who want to be able to speak in real-life situations, understand spoken Italian, and stop translating word by word.

Whether your goal is to move to Italy, reconnect with your roots, travel, or simply enjoy the language, you’ll find a supportive environment where making mistakes is part of the learning process.
