Course objectives
This subject is a continuation of the course Practical exercises in Italian 1 and directly follows it. It is aimed at further consolidating basic knowledge of Italian grammar, developing communicative skills and expanding vocabulary in the range of topics defined in the syllabus. The content of the course also includes listening to authentic recordings of native speakers and reading simpler texts from everyday life aimed at developing the ability to understand (written) spoken and written speech. The aim of the first block of practical exercises (together with the subjects Writing Practice 1 and 2) is, depending on the level of entry knowledge and skills of a specific group of listeners, to create the prerequisites for moving from a user of the basics of the language towards an independent user, i.e. achieving level A2- B1 SERR.
Learning outcomes
At the end of the course the student will be able to:
- describe and use Italian grammar rules;
- understand a text listened to;
- write the most complicated texts correctly;
- talk about specialized topics.
