Italian in Auckland
Auckland is a thriving city and, since its founding in the 1840s, has attracted residents from all over the world. In particular, during the gold rush of the 1860s, numerous Italians established themselves in Auckland. Most of them were single men who later sent for their wives and children. Today, more than 30,000 Italians live in the Auckland region, according to the 2011 census—many of whom are descended from these early Italian arrivals—and almost 30% of this vast community do not speak English. So, if you would like to connect with them on a personal or professional level, improve your career prospects and make the most out of the fantastic local events and festivals, like Festival Italiano, start learning the language with us. Our courses are tailored to your specific needs and schedule, so get in touch with us today and we will start designing a programme just for you!
Why Study Italian in Auckland
For Work: Learning Italian in Auckland will look great on your CV and definitely help you get a new job or promotion. If you are not sure where to start looking, you can get in touch with the Italian Chamber of Commerce in New Zealand on Scarborough Lane. This organisation works to stimulate, facilitate and foster economic and trade relations between Italy and New Zealand. Also, international companies, such as the Italian Leather Company, Italian Stone Ltd or Non Solo Pizza, are always looking for fluent Italian speakers. This means that signing up for an Italian course will make you stand out when compared to other monolingual applicants. Start learning today and take advantage of these opportunities!
For Culture: Experience the amazing Italian culture without ever leaving Auckland by attending the annual Festival Italiano. This is a yearly celebration of Italian food and culture, and Auckland's only Italian festival. The event is open to the public and entry is free. You can find stalls selling Italian food, drink and crafts, plus children's activities, spot prizes, live music and entertainment. The Festival Italiano season also includes several cultural activities and concerts, so sing along to the beautiful Italian music using the pronunciation you learn with us at Language Trainers and have the time of your life! Every December, you can also find the Mercatino di Natale (Italian Christmas Market), where you can purchase panettone, pandoro, prosecco and everything you need to celebrate Christmas like a true Italian!
For Social: If you are looking to make friends with Italian immigrants in the city, you can join the InterNations space for Italians in Auckland. In this group, you can connect with others who love the language (and the Italian culture, too!) as much as you do. Join them to put your new language skills into practice! Another option is the Italian conversation group Auckland. Whether you used to be fluent but are getting a bit rusty, or you are learning but need more conversational practise to step up to the next level, you can attend these meetings and have some fun. The members of this group usually get together at themed restaurants that serve delicious Italian food, like Baduzzi on Jellicoe Street (where you can taste the best pasta you will ever find) or Prego on Ponsonby Street. There, you can sample, gnocchi, focaccia or tiramisu. You will even be able to understand their Italian-written menu with the vocabulary you acquire with us at Language Trainers!
