Hi,
You could probably get an adjunct position (part-time) or maybe a full-time position at the instructor level. But most four-year colleges and universities will not hire your for a tenure track position unless you have a Ph.D.
A community college would probably hire you full-time with the masters, IF they had enough students interested in studying Italian to warrant hiring a full-time professor. Most do not. There are not a lot of people out there with advanced degrees in Italian, but right now there is also not a big demand for Italian classes among students compared to Spanish, Chinese, etc.
Bottom line: you have a good shot at getting a part-time gig somewhere, but to be hired as a full-time professor at a four-year school you definitely will need the Ph.D.
Hope this helps

Why would think not? Depends on the school you may be considered a assistant professor for a time. Go for it, do it close to me, and I'll come audit the class (I have a degree) and learn Italian.
