SEMI-STANDARD COURSE

Our Italian language courses have been developed from a communicative based approach and focuses on the four language abilities (listening, speaking, reading, writing). Our first goal is communication, both oral and written. The language analyses activities include controlled oral and written production, while the communicative tasks involve listening and reading comprehension and free oral and written activities.
Teaching material is always introduced in some form of authentic text (newspaper or magazine article, taped dialogue, video-taped situation, letter, short story, etc.). Progress is monitored and all teachers meet weekly to facilitate organization and ensure proper student placement. The instructors rotate weekly to add variety and interest to the group dynamic.

SEMI STANDARD course in group is designed for those who want to study only 2 lessons per day, focusing on the language analysis activities OR the communicative tasks.
