What is the course about?
This course aims to consolidate and extend your skills in Italian with an emphasis on listening and speaking in class and on reading and writing as homework. You'll be introduced to a key element of Italian grammar: the congiuntivo (or subjunctive), which is important if you want to accurately express yourself in Italian.
What will we cover?
Based on units 9-10 from Nuovo Espresso 2 (Alma Edizioni - Italian version).
Topics: make apologies; express hypotheses; descriptions
Grammar: introduction of the subjunctive.
What will I achieve?
By the end of this course you should be able to...
-describe/ask about apartments/houses
-say what you like/don't like about them
