Course objectives
The Italian 5 course is intended primarily for students of the English and German programs, who can thus supplement their language skills. They will continue to work with an Italian textbook, which includes both listening and conversation topics and useful grammar with a number of exercises of various types. Language teaching will be complemented by reading texts and working with them; these texts acquaint students with the basics of Italian studies.
Learning outcomes
The aim of the course is to master the language at the B1 level.
