THE COURSES
Our choice of courses is large and diverse. They are designed to meet the needs and requirements of the students who are able to choose, between standard courses, intensive courses and professional courses. In recent years we have looked to promote, with success, individual courses also, that more and more people are choosing thanks to the high quality and value of the courses.
Certificates and Diplomas
At the end of each course students receive a certificate of attendance stating the course attended, the number of hours studied and the level achieved. For those that are interested we also offer courses of preparation for the CELI exam of the "Università per Stranieri di Perugia"
Teaching Materials
The educational material used during the lessons has been produced by one of our teachers, Mrs. Bacci. The books “Un tuffo nell’azzurro” and “Un volo nell’azzurro” were published in 1998. Exercise books and key answer books have since been added, the original books are constantly updated and reprinted and are used by many European and Italian institutes as principle texts for lessons of Italian.
Methodology
We use communicative teaching techniques using modern textbooks and other facilities. All four language skills are developed.
