At Planet Italia, which is located in Houston (Texas), we offer Italian language courses and private tuition for adults and children, ranging from Italian for beginners to advanced Italian throughout the year, both in the morning and the evening, and on Saturdays.
At Planet Italia we also offer Italian conversation groups, Italian courses at your workplace or at your home, Italian language lessons on the phone, Italian for travelers, and Italian cultural courses for those who want to explore wonderful corners of Italy, together with aspects of its music, cuisine, and art, and are not necessarily Italian language students.
About Planet Italy, Italian Language Food & Culture Club.
Welcome to Planet Italy, Italian Language Food & Culture Club! This is absolutely one of the best meetup groups in Houston, and possibly in the world!
We meet a minimum of once a month to speak Italian and share our love of Italian language, food and culture. Our main focus is to practice speaking the Italian language, and our other goals are to enjoy anything else related to Italy. It's a very friendly and relaxed group and we usually meet in restaurant or private home. Other events in a given month may include wine tastings, musical events, lectures, food tastings, etc. While you don't need to know Italian to join the group, we do encourage you to have at least a basic level of Italian vocabulary and grammar, or to sign up for lessons, so you can practice your language skills with us.
Please be sure to check out our Message Board and Events section to see what's happening. Also, take a look at the Photos section and Polls section.
Please come to our next event, be sure to introduce yourself to us, and we will introduce you to some of our other members.
If you have a great idea for an event - please feel free to contact us. Also, get in touch if you have any comments or suggestions about improving the group. Your ideas and input are welcome and encouraged! Please remember to keep a positive attitude - this organization is powered by volunteer time and effort.
Speak with you, soon!
