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
After completing the course, the student will be able to:
- master Italian at the A2-B1 level;
- deepen their knowledge of grammar, including the use of technical terminology;
- understands authentic spoken text and is able to comment on it;
- can understand and translate more professional written text and process a summary;
- can express and defend his opinion.
