This is the school’s most popular and in-demand course, with 20 hours of classes per week in which the student is placed in a group that corresponds to their current level of knowledge. The course gives equal weight to traditional forms of learning as to more informal means of learning, with 2 hours for both grammar learning and for conversation.
Part of the reason for the popularity of the Standard course is that students can work hard during the early hours of the day, and then have their evenings free to explore Florence and take care of any personal errands.
The Italian standard course is the most attended course: each class is organised according to levels, and is composed of students coming from all over the world. The Italian standard course consists of 4 hours lesson per day, 5 days a week, for a total of 20 weekly hours. Every morning you’ll take part in two hours of grammar lessons followed by two hours of conversation lessons, where teachers will present daily and real life situations.
The Italian standard course is ideal:
- for students of any level.
- for those who want to have good results but have the afternoon free for their private commitments or visiting Florence.
- for those who love the Italian language and culture and want to learn to speak Italian.
- for those who want to learn or improve their understanding and their ability to speak Italian.
