Information for Visiting Students who have not studied Italian before

Language:

The course, open to all students, both beginners and non beginners, focuses on the four main language skills (listening, speaking, reading and writing) using regular practice based, as much as possible, on authentic material carefully selected to provide a gradual introduction to the structures and functions of the language.  Students will achieve a good level of fluency by the end of the year to enable them to cope with everyday situations in Italy.  Students will also be offered additional tuition in the multi-media labs and revision classes are organized during the year to help students learning a new language.

Culture:

This course is designed to give students an idea of some of the main trends in Italian history, society and culture.  It gives students a better understanding of the country behind the Italian language and gives a context to many issues students will encounter in Italian society today. 

Some courses in the department do not require a previous knowledge of the language and can be studied in translation.  Please consult the Department's Visiting Students Booklet 2011/2012 for information on courses which are available to students with no knowledge of Italian.
