Description
This course is suitable for participants without previous knowledge of the Italian language. The course is designed for beginners and is based on a communicative approach that encourages students to speak Italian from the very first lesson.
The course teaches basic elements of Italian grammar required for level A1.1: simple presentation, formation of several forms, articles, adjectives, etc.
In order to combine communication skills with grammar knowledge, students will participate in interactive learning activities such as role-plays and group games during the lessons.
The course will focus on the learning needs and interests of the course participants, but with a native speaker teacher it will also aim to stimulate your interest in the Italian language and culture and provide information and materials on socio-cultural aspects of contemporary Italy and the Italian lifestyle.
At the end of this level students can give a presentation about themselves, their family and friends, express preferences and talk about hobbies and activities in their free time.
