Italian Classes for Kids - online and in person options available
IN PERSON CLASSES ARE HELD @ 49 RIDGEDALE AVENUE, EAST HANOVER, NJ
We believe in teaching Italian from an early age. Group classes, private instructions and tutoring are available for children all levels from 3 years old and up.
Many options to choose from for group classes: 2 hour classes for the Saturday school, 1.5 hour in person weekdays, 1-hour online only, and family or private lessons.
ISNJ offer classes for children 3 years old and up and all levels (beginners, intermediate and bilingual) as follow:
-Pre-k students: Cuccioli (3 to 5 years old, pre-K)
-Elementary School students: Coccinelle (kindergarten), Scoiattoli (1st and 2nd grade), Farfalle (3rd to 5th grade)
-Middle School students: Fringuelli (6th, to 8th grade), and
-High School students: Giraffe (19th to 12th grade)
ISNJ has three levels of instructions, beginner, intermediate and bilingual.
Beginners and intermediate classes are open to everyone.
Bilingual classes are for those children who understand perfectly Italian and have at least one native Italian speaker in the household and for those children who have transferred to America from Italy and are looking to continue their Italian language education.
Students will learn Italian with many fun age-appropriate activities. For a more details description of our courses, please click here.

Italian School NJ encourages fun games to help our students improve their Italian language skills. Click here for educational resources.
Please note that at the Italian School NJ we divide the students based on their age, class grade, skill levels, and knowledge of Italian language. Placement in a different level and age group can be made by our staff based upon individual skill levels. For our youth classes attention is given to 4 skills: listening and comprehension, ability to speak, read and write Italian (when applicable). Italian School NJ has developed its own sequential curriculums following the requirements of the Common European Frameworks so that children will learn the language through the years through age appropriate activities.
Italian School NJ offers siblings and multiple classes discounts.
