Who is the course for?
This is the right course for you if you want to learn Italian through a complete immersion in the study of the language. We recommend it to you if you have important goals to achieve in the short term and if learning Italian is the main reason for your stay in Florence.
It is a general Italian course, which allows you to combine the group course in the mor-ning with private Italian lessons in the afternoon.
What are the course contents and objectives?
The course will help you improve listening, speaking, reading and writing. You will focus on the practical aspects of language useful in everyday life, developing Italian speaking skills and deepening your knowledge of Italian culture.
Italian lessons combine communication and grammar in an ideal combination and, at all levels, you will always use the Italian language in class. Plenty of time will be dedicated to expanding your vocabulary in order to speak Italian more fluently. If you are a beginner, you will start learning Italian from the basics and you will see your progress after the very first weeks. If you already have a knowledge of the language, the content will be appropriate to the level of your course, from A1 to C2.
In the afternoon your teacher will customize the lesson around your needs. You will go deeper into the topics covered in the group course, solve difficult grammatical questions, improve your comprehension and speaking skills,.
To complete each level you will need an average of 6 weeks, but you may need more time for higher levels.
How is the course organized?
You will be placed in a group of up to 8 people in a comfortable and relaxing environment. We will provide you with the textbook and all useful materials. The teacher will use an iPad and after each lesson you will receive a pdf with its contents. At the end of the course you will receive a certificate of attendance.
In the afternoon, or during the weekend, if you want, you can participate in our activities, 2 or 3 per week, organized and guided by the teachers in the school. You will make friends with other stu-dents, get to know Florence and its surroundings better, deepen your knowledge of various aspects of Italian culture and have fun practicing the Italian language.
