Italian for Beginners (A1)
led by Dott.ssa Cosima Ticali
A relaxed evening course for complete beginners who want to start speaking Italian from day one. Over 10 weeks, you’ll learn how to greet people, introduce yourself, order at a bar or café, make small talk and describe aspects of your life, following the first units of Nuovo Espresso Plus 1, enriched with original LearnIt Cambridge materials.
The course is clear, structured, and communication-focused. You’ll build solid foundations in grammar a
nd vocabulary while working in pairs and in groups, with real-life role plays, listening tasks, cultural mini-projects, and light but effective homework. The textbook and all extra materials are included in the course fee.
You will also join our local Italian-learning community with free access to beginner-friendly cultural activities (film nights with subtitles, mini cultural talks, tasting events, curated playlists, etc.). After three Terms (approx. 60 hours), you will be ready to move on to Level A2.
