For whom and when an Italian conversation course is recommended

Puntolingua’s courses are based on a communicative approach. This means that the starting point of our lessons at all levels is always the living language, that is the language used by Italians, in its various sociolinguistic variations. But not all language courses are designed this way. There are still many people and even many language teachers in the world who think that to teach a language it is enough only to provide separeted pieces of knowledge of grammar, phonetics, vocabulary, etc. For this reason, some turn to us in order to finally be able to deal with the living language, after having attended a course in which only “about Italian” was spoken and very little “Italian” was spoken.

Another case in which an Italian conversation course can be useful is to make a pleasant refresher, perhaps if you have not had the opportunity to speak Italian for a long time.

Our experienced mother tongue Italian teachers are able to speak on a wide variety of topics. The characteristics of our conversation courses in Italian are the newness of the themes and the possibility to deepen the contents.
