INTENSIVE
COURSES IN GROUPS
The courses begin with a placement
test which allows us to
evaluate your familiarity with the language and to form classes composed of
students all at the same level. There are five levels in all: beginners,
elementary, intermediate I, intermediate II and advanced. The
courses run from two weeks to twelve months. It is possible to start a course on Mondays
according to the course
calendar.
The classes
are composed of a maximum of twelve students of diverse nationalities.
Each group works with two teachers, and the lessons are conducted exclusively
in Italian. The four hours of daily classroom time
are divided between two separate courses of grammatical structure and
vocabulary, and expression and conversation. In classes
composed of one or two students the duration of daily lesson will be 2 hours
instead of 4; since small groups work in more intensive manner the same
progress can be guaranteed.
The schedule
of the courses is the following: from Monday to Friday, from 9.00 to 13.00.
One class hour has the duration of 55 minutes. There will be a short break
from 10.50 to 11.10.
Every fifteen days there is a test
to assess the students’ progress, as well as to assure the continued
homogeneity of each level.
The consistent contact between
students and teachers and the flexibility of our teaching methods facilitate a
real and intense encounter with the Italian language.
The teaching
material is consistently reviewed according to the needs of the
specific groups and individual students aiming to improve the communicative
skills of every individual student. Specially selected texts, exercises,
articles, literary extracts, games, songs, cartoons, and videos are used to
stimulate the class’s curiosity. Your active participation allows you to
learn Italian in a friendly and engaging atmosphere. The teaching together
with a binder will be given by the school and is included in the course price.
