2021 Autumn Sale: Why I Take Three Online Lessons each Week
(N.b. I’ve been ill, so am reposting the article I wrote this time last year, perhaps as an example of hubris… The three conversation lessons I boasted of taking each week did become four not long after I’d pubished it, adding French to my weekly chats in Swedish, Turkish and Spanish. And not long after […]

Time to restate what I’m about
Buondì. I’ll keep this short again, as the bloody touch pad on the computer is driving me up the wall – one delicate click comes out as a trembly two, two decisive clicks turn out not to have been felt at all (leaving me stabbing furiously at the machine with semi-numb fingers), and typing this […]
The two best places to learn Italian for free (& new ebook!)
Buondì. A rare Saturday article, to compensate for there having been no articles on Wednesday or Friday, the first time I’ve missed writing to the club on one of the regular days for many, many years. I often tell my students, by way of encouraging them to read and listen more to the language or […]
That ‘back to school’ feeling!
Buondì. My son, wearing a black hoodie, black tracksuit trousers, black Nikes, and carrying a black bag (which may or may not contain books and something to write with), has just walked out of the front door to catch a bus to what will be the first full week of his final year of school. […]
