Do you want to consolidate your Italian speaking and listening skills further and be able to gain a deeper cultural understanding? This Italian Intermediate Plus Summer School course is for you. You will benefit from exchanging face to face with your supportive tutor and other students as you practise speaking in Italian and enjoying learning the language.
By the end of the course successful students should be able to:
- Communicate on a wider range of topics and be able to extract details accurately from various sources
- Obtain information from complex texts and deal with topics of a familiar/unfamiliar nature
- Making hypothesis using the conditional
- Start expressing attitudes and emotions using the subjunctive
- Start to use colloquial expressions and appropriate style of language in conversations
Grammar gaps will be covered as needed. You will be given small amounts of homework (1 hour suggested) each week to reinforce classroom learning.



How will I be taught?

The focus will be on oral communication (speaking and listening) and some reading and writing will also be included. Pronunciation and Italian culture are an integral part of the course. The course will be conducted mainly in the foreign language. You will work through different activities individually, in pairs and in small groups, using a variety of learning methods and resources (role-play and games etc). Homework set will provide and opportunity for self study including the use of online resources.
Initial assessment will be carried out at the beginning of the course to assess individual skill level. Each student starting point will be recorded on an Individual Learning Plan (ILP) and targets will be set. This will be revisited from time to time during the course to monitor and record progress. Tutors will mark homework and give written or verbal feedback.

What do I need to have with me?

The course book will be discussed at the first session if appropriate. You will need to bring a pen and paper and an A4 ring binder for handouts, although we advise not to buy anything until after the first session.

What can I do next?

The appropriate follow on course is an Italian Advanced PLus Summers course or an Advanced conversation course. We offer a variety of Italian courses including History, art Film studies etc
The tutor will be able to advise or check www.kentadulteducation.co.uk.

In addition some of our courses support access to Further and Higher Education opportunities. KAE web site has information about these courses and developing your own business.
