About this course
The course develops Italian for everyday communication through vocabulary work on housing, free time, holidays, clothing and health. Learners read Italian texts, practise pronunciation, and use the present, past and imperfect tenses in spoken and written activities. Teaching follows a communicative approach, with role plays, classroom interactions, group discussions and presentations. The course also introduces intercultural comparison by examining traditions. Progress is reviewed through in-class activities, tutor observation and a Personal Learning Plan.
