This Italian cultural center gives you the opportunity to experience the atmosphere of an authentic "Salotto Italiano" in the heart of Chicago.

"I have had the pleasure of knowing Sentieri-Casa Italiana since 1996 when I cavalierly decided to learn a second language. Luckily for me, Daniela Cavallero was my first Italian teacher. Through her expert knowledge of the language and her personal commitment to students she has kept me "coming back for more." Her classes are engaging, challenging and just plain fun! Best of all, her classes have given me the opportunity to meet people who I now consider "amici"! I can proudly say that I have advanced to her intermediate level conversation course and I am thoroughly enjoying it!
(Carol Martell, Casa Italiana student)

Our instructors are native speakers who hold Italian and/or American Doctorate Degrees, with teaching experience at Chicago universities and colleges. Classes include:
