Italian in Edinburgh
Italian is within the 15 most influential languages in the world and is spoken by more than 64 million people, with many living in Scotland! According to the 2011 census, more than 100,000 people of Italian descent are based in the country, and almost 2,000 of these Italian Scots live in Edinburgh. Most Italian immigrants have come to the city over the years because of the hundreds of professional opportunities available to Italian speakers, and you can take advantage of them, too. Plus, by taking Italian lessons, you will be able to communicate with the Italian-speaking community on a whole new level and truly understand their culture. Start learning the language with us today!
Why Study Italian in Edinburgh
For Work: After taking an Italian course with Language Trainers, take advantage of this new knowledge by finding a new job. And if you need somewhere to start your search, you can contact the Italian Chamber of Commerce and Industry for the UK (ICCUK) on Melville Street. The ICCUK was founded in 1886 and it has been contributing to the development of the commercial relationship between Italy and the UK ever since; they regularly organise events to promote networking. For example, every year, many Italian entrepreneurs come to Edinburgh to participate in the Talented Young Italians & Keynes Sraffa Awards. This is a great chance to get to know other entrepreneurs and impress them with your Italian skills! Also, a lot of international companies in Edinburgh are always on the lookout for fluent Italian speakers to add to their teams. For example, businesses like Sky, Chase and FPSG Connect hire fluent speakers for positions such as accounts assistant, wealth management and customer advisor.
For Culture: If you are more interested in experiencing the fascinating Italian culture in Edinburgh, you will find a lot of instances for doing so. For example, you can attend the many events organised by the Istituto Italiano di Cultura Edimburgo on Nicolson Street. This is the official Italian governmental body in Scotland, dedicated to promoting Italian language and culture by organising a wide series of events, including book launches attended by their authors. So, if you love literature, why not attend these events and try to talk to these writers in Italian? Also, if you are a cinema lover, you can attend the annual Italian film festival, an event that features an exciting, wide-ranging selection of films released throughout the past twelve months. All the films are screened in Italian, and you will soon forget about reading the English subtitles after taking some lessons with us at Language Trainers!
For Social: Learning Italian in the city will allow you to meet a lot of people around the city who also love the language and its culture. Many of them get together to practise and have a good time, such as the people in the Italian Language Meetup Group in Edinburgh. Another option is to join the InterNations group for Italians in Edinburgh, where you can meet Italian expats and anyone with an interest in the language. Don’t be shy and take advantage of these opportunities to put into practice what you learn in your lessons with Language Trainers! Meetings are often held in themed restaurants that serve Italian food, such as Divino Enoteca Italian Restaurant & Wine Bar on Merchant St or Vittoria on the Walk on Brunswick St. There, you can taste delicious Italian dishes, such as penne a la rigatti, cannoli and spagetthis al pesto. Imagine ordering this food in Italian!
