The 4 Best Youtube Channels to Help You Learn Italian

Looking for some simple ways to practise your Italian? Why not consider Youtube?

Let’s face it, many of us look at the app several times a day already; why not put it to work?

With thousands of Youtubers and Youtube channels dedicated to helping us learn languages, Youtube has become an incredible tool for those who want to boost their Italian. You can use it for anything, from learning the words you’ll need to talk to your nonna to the latest news in the Italian business sphere.

So, without further ado, here are some of the best Youtube channels to help you learn Italian.

 

 

Learn Italian with Lucrezia

Learn Italian with Lucrezia is an amazing all-round Youtube channel to help you learn Italian. Lucrezia has more than 191,000 subscribers currently, who enjoy her clear accent and wide range of video lessons.

Lucrezia has various series you can follow, like this one for learning idioms. Our personal favourite is Vlog in Italian, which gives you a real taste of Italian through everything from a virtual tour of the country to learning recipes for Italian food.

What is a nice bonus about Learn Italian with Lucrezia is her Correct My Text In Italian series that takes a piece of text and demonstrates how to improve it so the Italian is more natural-sounding; this isn’t something we tend to find readily available on Youtube channels.

Between all of these series and plenty of standalone lessons to keep you busy, this is a truly brilliant Youtube channel to subscribe to if you are wanting some help with your Italian.
