Course overview

The course aims to extend and consolidate the language skills to enable you to communicate in Italian with a higher level of confidence and greater ease.

You should already be familiar with the present and past tenses of regular and irregular verbs, as well as prepositions, articles, and the use of conditionals. This course focuses on developing your communication skills, encouraging expression and debate on a wide range of contemporary cultural and social issues using increasingly accurate and nuanced Italian.

The weekly programme will depend on the specific group dynamics, with the tutor leading and moderating the content depending on the development of skills across the whole group.

By the end of the course our aim is that you should have reached A2+ standard as described in the Common European Framework.
