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.

This is a live online course. You will need:
- Internet connection. The classes work best with Chrome.
- A computer with microphone and camera is best (e.g. a PC/laptop/iMac/MacBook), or a tablet/iPad/smart phone/iPhone can be used if you don't have a computer but please note the experience may be less optimal.
- Earphones/headphones/speakers.
We will contact you with joining instructions before your course starts.

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?

What level is the course and do I need any particular skills?
