The first day of the course at our school students are first welcomed by
our professional teachers and shortly afterwards take a
preliminary test (a written grammar test and an interview) to identify
their general level and the specific area of language they need to
improve and to determine the appropriate level of their Italian course;
2.
Class
sizes range from 3 to 20 students on average. This allows the teacher to
monitor participants in our Italian language courses with particular
care, and guarantees each student an active participation in the
learning process. At the end of the Italian language course students
receive a certificate of attendance;
3.
The course
consists of 2 hours (each one-hour lesson runs for 50 minutes) of
theoretical lessons in the morning and 2 hours of practical lessons in
the afternoon;

It lasts 5 days
for a total of 20 lessons per week. If requested there is the
possibility of dealing with specific topics. We suggest attending

instruments as well as films, etc. are chosen to enrich the student's
comprehension of Italian language and culture.
