Our method

The teaching method used in our Italian courses is based on the stimulation to learn through direct communication between the teacher and the student, keeping into account the latter's age, basic education and goals.

Our courses are aimed to the gradual achievement of the linguistic abilities of comprehension, speaking, reading and writing, as well as a thorough study of the historical and artistic aspects, through visits to the monuments of the town together with the teachers.

The Italian language is taught using traditional and authentic educational materials and through activities such as games, role playing, debates and teaching instruments such as songs and videos.

According to the level of the course, the classes deal with simple or complex matters, by reading of texts and newspapers. Thus, it's easier for the students to have access to the Italian culture and society and also to take part to everyday's life.

All the teachers of our school are graduated and specialized in teaching Italian to foreigners.
