What it actually is

Tom grew up bilingual and has been on YouTube since 2011, which shows in how well he anticipates English-speaker confusion — gestures, slang, swearing, register, and why the textbook phrase sounds wrong. Videos mix Italian and English, so they stay accessible earlier than fully-immersive channels. Free on YouTube; group lessons via his site are paid. Less useful if you want systematic grammar coverage.
