Description

Italian Conversations Through Culture, Humor, and Imagination

This lively, small-group course is designed for high-intermediate/advanced students who want to explore the richness of the Italian language through real, authentic texts—and have fun doing it.

Over the course of five weeks, students will read a variety of short materials—from newspaper articles and blog posts to short stories and dialogues—and explore how Italians write across different styles and tones. Each session focuses on a specific theme, offering a fresh look at vocabulary, idiomatic expressions, and structures in context.

But reading is just the beginning! With the guidance of our dynamic teacher, students will dive into engaging conversations to reflect on the writer’s style, share ideas, and connect the material to their own experiences.

Each class includes:

• Short readings from authentic sources (articles, blogs, stories)

• Quick vocabulary and idiom highlights in context

• Guided conversation and discussion

• Style and structure analysis—without getting too “grammar heavy”

This course is perfect for learners with a strong foundation who want to become more confident, expressive, and fluent—while discovering the many voices of Italian writing and culture.

Class material is included in the registration fee. Your teacher is Lorena.
