What we’re about
This is a space for women who already have some Italian and simply want to use it — casually, socially, and without pressure. No classrooms, no drills, no perfection energy. Just real conversations, shared laughs, forgotten words, hand gestures, and the joy of speaking a language we love (even when we completely blank). Check out @Parliamo_Melbourne on insta for more info Whether your Italian feels rusty, hesitant, or stuck in the “I understand everything but panic when replying” phase, you’re very welcome here. This group is about connection as much as language — a relaxed, friendly environment where imperfect Italian is not just accepted, it’s expected. There’s no pressure to be fluent. Pauses, mistakes, and switching to English happen all the time. All we ask is that you come curious, kind, and willing to give it a go. Together we practice, help each other out, and keep the conversation flowing. Because language is meant to be lived, not performed.

Annelise
Meet Annelise: primary school teacher by day, laughing and learning Italian by night.
By day, Annelise is teaching early learners their ABCs and 123s. When nightfall comes, she is welcoming you to practice your Italian though conversation and connection.
