Faculty Information:
There are six different course levels:
- Elementary 1 and 2
- Intermediate 1 and 2
- Advanced 1 and 2
The number of participants is restricted to a maximum of 6 people per course, to create the opportunity for intensive, personally applicable courses. Homogenous classes also play a part in effective learning. In order to be placed at the appropriate level, all students, except absolute beginners, sit a written and oral test at the beginning of the language course. The goal of the teaching is to promote the use of language, consolidate grammatical structures and offer an insight into the culture and everyday life of the Italians.
The classroom language is Italian. The teaching method follows the communicative-situational model as a matter of priority. Here, alongside reading and writing in particular, special emphasis is also placed on the promotion of oral expression and communicative competence, conversation and oral comprehension. The syntactical and grammatical structures taught in lessons will immediately be given practical illustration. The teaching materials are chosen by us and adapted to fit the different course levels. To make the teaching as lively and varied as possible, we also use film material, newspaper articles, cassette recordings, games and songs alongside more traditional teaching material. All participants receive a language diploma at the end of the course and if desired, additional certification of their participation.
- Duration of course: Monday - Friday, 9 am - 1 pm / 4 pm - 8 pm
- Duration of lessons: 50 minutes
Should you have particular time or programme-related requests, we also offer you individual courses. Further, we can fully cater for your needs and requirements with a personal, one-to-one language course. Therefore, the number of lessons can be altered accordingly. Personal tuition begins on the day you choose. The school also prepares students to continue their language certification at the University of Foreigners in Siena/Perugia in order to obtain an Italian language Certificate (CILS) which is a title recognized by the Italian government. Ask the school's secretary to choose the right level.
