I assume you’re interested in learning Italian, or you wouldn’t be reading this article.
But wanting to is one thing.
Actually deciding to give it a go (or to keep at it, if you’ve already begun) is quite another.
Perhaps you need reasons to convince your partner, parents, children or grandkids that taking an Italian course at Madrelingua is an excellent idea?
Or maybe the person you really need to persuade is yourself?
No matter. Here are twenty-four winning arguments for you to employ!
