SpeakItaly was great during the class sign-up process, patiently answering my questions. I’m also taking one of the CILS exams with them and they helped make sure I had all of my paperwork filled out correctly. I am taking a series of private exam-prep lessons with Tiziana. She is awesome! My lessons are a great combination of learning new things, reinforcing material I’ve learned before but need help with, and learning about the exam. It’s also been really fun - Tiziana uses innovative techniques to make learning fun! And I really appreciate that each lesson feels custom to me and what I need. I’m feeling better prepared for this exam!!!

SpeakItaly has helped me improve my Italian within a short period! I highly recommend it if you are looking to learn Italian or improve on the language. They are patient and very knowledgeable. I chose to do private lessons and believe that’s what helped me in improving.

I highly recommend Speakitaly NYC Brooklyn. I am applying for my Italian Citizenship and they were able translate my document from English to Italian (with all the necessary notary/apostilled) within a reasonable time and very affordable, Although, I live in Florida, they were able to do everything via email, phone call & mail (just a complete pleasure). CALL TODAY!!! you will be happy you did.

The teachers and staff at Speakitaly are amazing. I started with lessons during the pandemic and have truly enjoyed my classes, and learning not only the language, but the customs and culture of Italy from my teacher, Tiziana, a native speaker. She has been patient, kind, and encouraging, and I have a sense of accomplishment as I progress to the next levels in preparation for my citizenship test. I also love all the different texts we read; to get variety of topics always keeps me interested. I can't say enough good things about this program!

I can’t say enough about Speakitaly and the team that work there. I reached out to them for help with the Italian language certification that is part of an application for Italian citizenship. I had several lessons, all targeted at the exam and passed first time. Thank you to the diligent and ever patient Salvatore! Next was the application process which Speakitaly also assist with. They give you a list of exactly what documents and background checks you need, how to apply for them and take care of all the translations, certificates and apostole. This could have been an absolute nightmare but with their help was smooth and timely. And finally the application itself. As with all aspects of this process it is complicated, time consuming and at times baffling. Raffaella took care of everything. I couldn’t have done it without her! When I had my interview at the consulate they told me it was very unusual to be accepted first time. Raffaella was fast, efficient, diligent and really took gre

I asked Raffaella for certified translations of divorce papers into Italian. She was prompt, efficient, knowledgeable about what is accepted by the Italian Consulate in NY, and delivered quality translations at a great price. I would 100% recommend Speakitaly and use them again if needed.

Raffaella recently helped me with a translation for my child's birth certificate and apostile. She was truly excellent! Raffaella was always responsive, and answered my emails extremely quickly. I was confused by the advice from my local embassy, and she was able to clarify what was needed and kept the whole process simple and easy for me. I received the documents back extremely quickly and her work was very professional and precise. I would highly recommend this service to everyone!! thank you Raffaella

Sandra Jovicic

I had the pleasure of working with Raffaella, the founder of SPEAKITALY, for all of my translation, notarization, and Apostille needs related to my Italian citizenship process. After waiting four years on a consulate waitlist, I was in need of some additional documents notarized and Apostilled as my appointment date approached. I reached out to Raffaella for help, and I couldn’t have been more happy with her service. Raffaella was incredibly responsive, available, and ensured that my documents were processed in a timely manner. She expedited everything for me! It is very hard to get people to respond to anything these days, and I really appreciated this from her. I highly recommend SPEAKITALY for anyone going through the complex process of obtaining Italian citizenship. Raffaella is knowledgeable, efficient, and I believe she truly cares about her clients’ success!

I had a very good experience with Speakitaly. Raffaella went above and beyond to help me through the very tedious and lengthy steps of collecting and translating the documenta required to secure an Italian passport!

I am so grateful for the amazing support I received from SpeakItaly, especially from Raffaella. She was kind, professional, and so attentive with every detail of my translations. Everything even came back apostilled which truly felt like a blessing. The whole process was smooth and stress free thanks to her. I recommend SpeakItaly with all my heart and we will probably come back again. Grazie di cuore!

We needed four documents translated and with an apostille for Italy and Rafaella understood exactly what needed to be done for this particular use case and provided exactly what we needed and did so very quickly. Communication with us was excellent—I couldn't recommend her more highly!
