This course is designed for complete beginners and early learners who would like to build and expand their Italian vocabulary in a relaxed and enjoyable way. It is particularly suitable for those who have recently started their journey with the Italian language, as well as for anyone who would like a gentle refresher of key words and expressions.
Through games, riddles and other fun activities, students will develop their vocabulary and gain confidence using the language. Topics will include everyday themes such as food and drink, colours, the home, family, numbers, shopping, hobbies, and simple descriptions, with opportunities to practise short conversations along the way.
Classes take a hands-on, situational approach, with plenty of pair and group work, making learning interactive, student-centred and – most importantly – fun.
