Italian Language
Ciao and benvenuti to the Italian language course at Dialecta!
"Il tempo è sufficientemente lungo per chi lo vuole utilizzaro."
- Leonardo di ser Piero da Vinci
The Italian language originates from Latin, which evolved during the Roman Empire on the Apennine Peninsula, through various Latin dialects. During the Middle Ages, Italian gained prominence through literary masterpieces like Dante's Divine Comedy and Petrarch's poetry. Today, Italian is the official language of Italy, San Marino, Vatican City, and parts of Switzerland, with a rich cultural heritage and a global presence. As a native language, Italian is spoken by around 59 million people. Additionally, Italian is popular as a second language worldwide, particularly in Europe and America, due to the cultural influence and significance of Italian culture, art, and history.
Whether you are learning Italian enchanted by its rich culture, travel, or business opportunities, you will be guided by our exceptional teacher with over 15 years of experience in teaching Italian. She holds an internationally recognised teaching certificate, and with her education from the Faculty of Philology and extensive experience at the Italian Institute of Culture, she will ensure that your language goals are achieved. The Italian language course is available to everyone, from the age of 6 and up, and covers all levels according to CEFR standards. You can read more about the distribution of CEFR levels here.
The teaching programme is designed to be gradual and systematic, starting with basic greetings such as ciao, buonasera, buongiorno, and forming short sentences, to mastering passato prossimo, imperfetto, conditional, and writing complex texts like essays and articles. At Dialecta, we adhere to the principle of individualisation. We track the achievements of each student with the aim of unlocking their full potential. Through interactive classes, practical exercises, and regular progress monitoring, we ensure that every student achieves their highest goals in language learning.
