Primi Passi        1 and 2

This is a basic course. The children will learn basic information like colors, numbers and simple words. Depending on the age of the group, the professor will diversify her/his teaching method.  Young kids will have the opportunity to play games, while teenagers will use a text. The book is not required for this level; in fact photocopies will  be provided by the teacher. This level is divided in two courses, 1 and 2, each of 10 lessons.

Esplorando l’Italiano 3 and 4

This is an intermediate course. The training is focused on enriching the Italian vocabulary; some grammar will be taught in order for the children to sustain a simple conversation.
