Levels B and C
Conversation courses are part of the Italian language and culture distance learning courses offered. They aim at fostering linguistic interaction in Italian between students and teacher.
Though at a distance, all courses are held "face to face" (synchronous lessons), therefore with the active involvement of the students.
At each lesson students interact with each other and with the teacher, discussing about topics of Italian culture and news.
The four weeks courses host a minimum of 5 students.
Weekly schedule
4 hours per week in synchronous mode.
Each synchronous lesson lasts 50 minutes.
