This course is a continuation from Italian Intermediate Conclusion and is for any student wishing to learn the language for business, travel or everyday use with approximately 200 hours of Italian required. Students will develop skills to use in conversation, reading, listening and writing. This course aims to build general high level comprehension and communication skills in Italian covering intermediate revision points/problem areas from Nuovo Espresso 2. The communicative and grammatical aspects are integrated in every lesson; conversation and oral drills are integral to the course as well as a review of cultural practices, with a focus on clear explanation of high level language principles.

This class will be delivered face-to-face at WEA Sydney. Enrolling students need to ensure they have read the current COVID-19 Safety Guidance that WEA Sydney has put in place before enrolling.
