Apply for this course
Italian - Improvers B follows on from the Italian Improvers A course where you will improve your conversation and your understanding of short dialogues and short texts and make yourself understood in a range of increasingly unpredictable everyday situations.
During this course you will work to be able to develop a deeper understanding of the subject in applying the language in relation to certain activities examples including: Furniture; Hotel booking; Complaining; Places in town; Directions

The main topics are designed for those who wish to converse a little more in the language when visiting the country or in a working environment.  

If you are to gain maximum benefit and enjoyment from your language class, it will be useful to spend some time working between sessions. There will usually be a small amount of learning homework set each week (up to an hour’s work). When homework is not set, it is still a good idea to spend about that amount of time going over what has been done in class.
What next?
Italian – Improvers C
Entry criteria
There are no formal entry requirements however this is a course for those who have already studied the language at school for one or two years, or followed a course for 50 - 60 hours, or else have spent some time in the country on holiday or business trips. You will already be able to cope with a range of simple everyday situations using the present tense and be able to recognise the past tense when you hear or read it. The standard approximates to level A1/A2 in terms of the Common European Framework We are committed to ensuring that you have a positive learning experience and will therefore be reviewing all our classes after the first session to ensure learners are enrolled on a course that is at the right level for them.
Fee information
A textbook is used to accompany the course, but it is optional to buy this (average cost £20 - £25). The textbook will support your learning for at least 1 year. You may also like to buy a small dictionary. Your tutor will be able to advise you at the first session.

As part of your course we may organise trips to assist you with your learning. Trips are optional, and you will not be penalised if you choose not to participate.

There are bursaries available to help you with other course costs. Call 01235 216 212 for more information.

The rules on fee reduction are complicated and we would encourage you to talk to our Admissions staff on 01235 216 400 to discuss your options. You can find more information on our Fees and Bursaries page - search "Fees and Bursaries" at the top of the page.

Learning & method assessment
We commit ourselves to accommodate different learning styles through a variety of activities in class. There is no exam to sit and no qualification to obtain apart from a Certificate of Attendance for a specific level of language. However, the complexity of the tasks offered will evolve according to the progression of your language skills and will demonstrate your acquisition of new competences.

To track your progress and achievement you will be required to complete a short document.
