Subject Description

The course provides a comprehensive introduction to contemporary Italian. Language classes will gradually familiarize the student with the structures, rules and skills necessary to communicate in Italian. A weekly conversation class will assist the language learning process and improve spoken and listening fluency. Continuous assessment is done through tests, exercises, and other activities and is fundamental to ascertaining the student's progress in the acquisition of Italian. By the end of the academic year, students will have developed oral and written skills that will enable them to achieve a reasonable level of competency in the target language.
