INTENSIVE ITALIAN COURSES

Our Intensive Italian language courses in Bologna (Italy) involve six hours of Italian lessons a day (NOT 6 lessons of 50 or 55 minutes like some other Bologna schools!) giving a total of 30 hours a week for 1/2/3/4 (or more) weeks, as required. The minimum number of students in a group is normally 4, and the maximum is 10.

Classes

Italian classes are held in the mornings, normally from 09:30 to 13:30 and there is an afternoon class for two hours each day, plus 10 hours a week of homework, plus the FREE social programme

Afternoon lessons for intensive course students include extra grammar/vocabulary,extra speaking/listening, supervised use of educational software and multimedia resources.

In addition, there is a teacher available for two hours each afternoon to help you with your homework if you choose to do it in the school (the supervised homework period is from 14:00 to 16:00 each afternoon). The school remains open until 21:00 most evenings, so you have full use of the facilities (computers, WIFI hotspot, DVDs, study area, etc) for over 12 hours a day.

Classes will involve learning Italian grammar and vocabulary,speaking and listening as much as possible, as well as some reading and writing. Our aim is to develop your ability to understand and communicate in Italian, not just to teach you grammar.

Materials

You can choose to to buy a course book to use during your lessons and for homework, or if you prefer to save the money we will lend you one (against a returnable deposit equal to the cost of the book). Your teacher may also give you photocopies of other resources to use during the lessons.

We have a DVD and video library of classic Italian films for you to borrow or watch in the school. There are also Italian books and magazines available.
