Course Outline
This is an 8-week course held every Thursday evening (6:00-8:00pm). This 8-week course is an introduction to the Italian language and culture. The classes include experimenting sounds and pronunciation, introduction to grammar and structure of the sentence, and practical use of the spoken language. The four language skills will be developed through written exercises (reading and writing), role plays (speaking) and watching videos in class to have the opportunity to listen to native speakers (listening). If you are passionate about the Italian language and culture, this course can also be considered the first step towards the Italian Continuers course where you can deepen and broaden the knowledge of this beautiful language. DASC runs two levels of Italian courses: Beginners & Continuers. This ensures that the varying levels of students' proficiency can be catered for, and students can move between levels according to their needs. Your instructor: Caterina Michielli is a teacher of Italian with a great passion for languages. She is a native speaker with a degree in Foreign Languages and a specialization Diploma in teaching Italian to Foreigners from the University of Siena (DITALS). She has taught Italian to different age groups (from primary to senior students and adults) in Darwin and in Italy and always enjoys sharing her language and culture with her class. Caterina believes that the real secret to learn a language is not just processing information with your brain but feeling the language with your heart and embracing the sounds, the culture, the differences, and similarities.
