Hi my dears! How are you today? What are you doing? I’m very excited today because I’m going to share with all of you a fresh conversation with my friend Francesco who is completely down for basketball. He is going to explain us when and why he started playing basketball, eventually trying to become a basketball teacher. I just marked this episode as C1 level because I think that probably advanced learners are going to pick up phrases rather than expressions but at the same time I’m sure that all of you will enjoy this chat because you like Italian people and you are into listening to their natural conversations. Before to start I want to point out something: in order to do this interview I prepared seven questions for Francesco and as a will talk I’m going to introduce each question by saying “domanda 1, domanda 2....” You can find these questions in the description of this episode so that you can review the questions to improve your level of listening as well as to understand as much as possible the answers that Francesco is going to give me. 😎👉🏼 FOR YOUR PRACTICE: 7 questions Domanda 1 Ciao Francesco, intanto presentati! Domanda 2 Ok, come i nostri amici sanno, questa chiacchierata è ispirata dalla tua passione per il basketball, in italiano diremmo pallacanestro. Come è nata questa passione? Quando hai cominciato a giocare? Domanda 3 Poi io so che per un lungo periodo tu non hai più praticato perché hai cominciato a lavorare. Quando e perché hai ripreso a giocare? Domanda 4 ti piace guardare la pallacanestro anche in tv? Domanda 5 Poi ad un certo punto c’è stata un’altra svolta: hai deciso di diventare allenatore di pallacanestro. Come mai? Quali sono state le cose che hai fatto? Domanda 6 Cosa stai preparando adesso? Cosa ti riserva il futuro per la pallacanestro? Domanda 7 Mi piace chiudere quest’intervista chiedendoti di dare un consiglio a tutti quelli che ascoltano questo podcast. Sono tutte persone che vogliono imparare a parlare italiano. Che consiglio potresti dare a loro per approcciare nella maniera più naturale questa lingua? Remember that I’m used to sharing an episode every Friday just for the sake of improving your level! So thank you so much for tuning in to my podcast guys! See you next time, by for now
