Come on board and discover the beauty of the Italian language and of Italy’s rich culture.  This course aims at complete beginners and those with some experience of the language.  Each day we cover a different topic with related vocabulary and simple grammatical structures.  Emphasis is put on conversation and the discovery of some aspects of the Italian culture and of some cities.

 

Topics within the two- and half-hour sessions include: Personal Information and Greetings; Directions and Travelling; Booking into a Hotel; A Day at the Market and Eating Out (restaurant, small bites and drinks).

From the flea market of Porta Portese in Rome to some of the greatest fashion houses of Milan, the course brings you both lesser known cities (Tiscali, I Sassi di Matera…) and cultural highlights of this fine and varied country (Verona and Costa Smeralda).

 

Sessions are fun, relaxed and filled with role-plays that gently introduce you to the language.  The cultural topics are supported by an array of visual and musical materials. In addition, the vocabulary of this cultural section is extended by resources to practise with your family!

​Join this popular Post Beginner five-day intensive Italian Summer School named after the famous actor/director Roberto Benigni’s film ‘Life is Beautiful’. Using your existing straightforward knowledge of the Italian language we use more complex structures to use and discover each day some famous tales from Italy’s rich culture.  This course aims at Post Beginners and those with some existing experience of the language, perhaps from courses, travel or work.  Each day we also cover a different topic with related vocabulary and extend knowledge with new grammatical structures.  You will know how to talk about families, professions and about physical and personality descriptions. You will be taught how to converse about holidays using the past tense and shopping for clothes. You will discover places like Taormina in Sicily, Vieste in Puglia and the Roman sites of Tharros and Nora in Sardinia. Emphasis is put on improving confidence in speaking, listening and understanding excerpts from everyday life and the discovery of new areas of Italy that have hidden traditions.

 

Sessions are fun, relaxed and filled with role-plays that gently reinforce the language.  The cultural topics are supported by an array of visual and musical materials. In addition, the course points the way to sites and resources that can continue to build your Italian.
