Ciao Caterina!
if there's no problem I'd like to correct you!

You wrote:Mi mama sona di Napoli de Italia. Mi sono di Florida.
It's better: Mia madre è di Napoli, in Italia. Io vengo dalla Florida! that's "I came from Florida".
Female teacher is maestra , female professor is professoressa
Male teacher is maestro, male professor is professore.
I hope the first lesson has been good.
You have to correct my english too!

Nice to meet you
a presto! :)

The first lesson was wonderful. Thank you. So far, I see nothing in your English that needs correction.

las year, the third, i was in spain for 5 months for an european project called erasmus, have you ever heard about it? it's like an interchange.
it was a beautiful experience!

francesca,

where in spain did you study? i've never been, myself, but i've studied a lot about the country, and it all sounds beautiful. i'm a year away from having a degree in spanish, so i can read a bit of your italian. i once had to give a tour of my school to two men from italy. they spoke to me in italian and i responded in spanish, and we understood each other pretty well. i was surprised!

I read all this in awwww. My mother and oldest sister were born and rasied in Trieste. My mother became very "Americanized" when she came here, and stopped teaching her American born children italian. I will be taking Italian, and I am going to just start taking to her one day in her wonderful language. Cant wait!!
