Step 4

This course is for students who have done Step 3 course with us or those who have done about 45 hours of classroom study. You know more than just basic phrases and can get by in the simplest of everyday conversations. If you’re unsure of your level, please take our quick Italian language placement test.

Our online Italian lessons are interactive, and Maria is a qualified and experienced teacher, who will help you learn. She has a lot of experience of teaching beginner courses and she will make you communicate in Italian from the first lesson. The lessons take place via Zoom and focus on you and your engagement with the study materials. In every Italian lesson, you will be busy from the beginning to the end – speaking with your partner(s) in the breakout rooms, listening to and reading various texts, enriching your vocabulary through interactive activities, and discovering the rules of Italian grammar. The teacher will be sharing their screen, so it will feel like being in a normal classroom with a whiteboard – but you will not have to leave the comfort of your home!

To make this course an enjoyable and enriching experience, you'll need:

• a reliable internet connection;

• a computer or a tablet (smartphone screens are too small);

• a working webcam, microphone, and ear/headphones;

• a quiet place where no one will disturb you.
