Parliamo Italiano!
A Communicative Approach to Italian:
Our experienced native teachers use the natural approach method which introduces students to language inductively by exposing them to vocabulary and structures in the context of lively activities.
Classes consist of individual lessons and small groups (2-5 students) of seniors, adults, and teenagers, in order to give everyone the opportunity to participate and learn. SCLI Italian online classes are targeted at 5 different levels, from a total beginner (Beginner 1A) to an advanced level.
Beginner 1 level (A & B)
Students concentrate on developing fundamental Italian skills in an interactive classroom setting. Class work emphasizes those skills necessary for effective oral and written communication. Instruction covers all areas of language development: practical vocabulary, basic language structures and the essentials of reading, writing, listening and speaking.
Beginner level 2 (A & B)
By the end of the Beg.2A class, students will know words and phrases, answer questions and participate in simple conversation.
By the end of the Beg.2B class, students will be able to participate in most everyday situations, and understand native speakers used to deal with foreigners learning Italian.
Intermediate level (low & high)
Students continue to develop fluency and accuracy. Class work focuses on comprehensive skills as well as academic preparation skills, including the fundamentals of essay writing and the development of critical reading, listening and note-taking skills.
