Although when I first arrived in Italy I had to go to some italian friends house, I was able to chance do the Erasmus residence 3 months later which was great. The responsables for the erasmus services there in Turin, were very helpful.

Teachers at the Economics University are very helpful, and if u see yourself having some problems for instances with language, which is sometimes a problem when u begin study in another language, they can reccomend books in english.

Personal comments
The thing we always have to keep in mind when trying to learn a different language it's not to be afraid to make/say mistakes. It's normal, and the best way to begin to speak it's like this. People with whom we deal with(teachers, students, and other foreigns students) know from the start that we're not fluent and always try to help. I even learn Italian by going shopping and asking the people in the store, how we say things... It's really great and the best way to learn it.
