Description
Language of instruction: German
This course is suitable for students with no previous knowledge of Italian. Designed for beginners, the course is based on a communicative approach that encourages students to speak Italian from the first lesson.
The course teaches basic elements of Italian grammar required for level A1.1: simple presentation, formation of multiple forms, articles, adjectives, etc.
In order to combine communication skills with grammar knowledge, participants will take part in interactive learning activities during the lessons, such as role-plays and group games.
The course will address the learning needs and interests of the students, but with a native speaker teaching assistant, it is also designed to stimulate your interest in the Italian language and culture and to provide information and materials on socio-cultural aspects of contemporary Italy and the Italian way of life.
At the end of this level, participants will be able to give a presentation about themselves, their family and friends, express preferences and talk about hobbies and activities in their free time.
Regular and active participation is a prerequisite for successful completion of the course. This also requires the completion of homework to further practise and consolidate what has been learned.
The course consists of 30 attendance hours. Attendance is compulsory. If you want to have a certificate of achievement, you may not be absent for more than 6 lessons (20%). The final grade is made up of 30% class participation and 70% final exam.
