Start from scratch and learn to speak Italian in everyday situations – step by step over three terms.

You’ll learn how to introduce yourself and others, talk about your free time, order food and drinks, and book a hotel room.
We’ll focus on the present tense and how to say what you like (and don’t like) – all in a relaxed and practical way.
Perfect for complete beginners!

The course is designed to develop your skills gradually across three terms, with each term building on the last.
