This is a continuation course but can be open to new students with prior knowledge of the language.

Do you wish to strengthen your vocabulary, range of tenses, fluency and confidence in Italian?  This course is designed for experienced learners who have completed at least three years of part-time study and who wish to connect with the Italian lifestyle  through a wide selection of cultural topics. The emphasis will be on speaking, reading and listening, but also some grammar and written work will be covered as appropriate.
