Our General Italian language courses in Bologna involve four hours of Italian lessons a day (NOT 4 lessons of 50 or 55 minutes like other Bologna Italian language schools!) giving a total of 20 hours a week for 1/2/3/4 (or more) weeks, as required, plus 10 hours a week of homework, plus the FREE social programme
Classes are held in the mornings, normally from 09:30 to 13:30. On arrival students are tested to find out their level, then placed in a suitable class with other students at a similar level. Classes have a minimum of 4 students and a maximum of 10. 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). So you could study up to 30 hours a week! 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.
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 equal to the cost of the book). Your teacher may also give you photocopies of other resources to use during the lessons.
Our Bologna Italian language school is well-equipped for language learning: each classroom has audio, DVD and video and other learning resources.
There is also a multimedia classroom available for classes or individuals to use. Internet access and educational software is always available.
We have a video library of classic Italian films for you to borrow or watch in the school. There are also Italian books and magazines available.
Our teachers will give you feedback on your progress during the course, and at the end of the course you will receive a diploma certifying the number of hours you have studied with us and the level you have reached.
20 hours a week, 0930-1330, from Monday to Friday, courses start each Monday (min. 4, max. 10 students in a class).
