WHAT YOU NEED
Classes will be run through Zoom, a free platform you can easily access through any device (computer, laptop, tablet, mobile phone) with the following features:
internet connection;a screen large enough for you to comfortably read the material; built-in or plugged-in speakers, microphone and webcam.
Zoom is available both on Apple and Android app stores.
Alternatively, you can download Zoom on your computer or laptop from the website www.zoom.us
You do not need to register for a Zoom account, but should you decide to register you can select the "free account" option: our teachers are all licensed so you will not need a Pro account to avail of all the features of our online classes.
CHOOSING YOUR LEVEL
Our language courses are based on the standards of the Council of Europe’s Common European Framework of Reference for Languages.
* Please note that the Institute is not in a position to offer free assessment tests for the online Spring courses.
If you are not a returning student and wish to enrol for a level other than absolute beginner please provide a certificate of attendance from your previous language school stating your current level or arrange a self assessment.
Please select a course at a level that corresponds to your existing knowledge of Italian. If you are unsure, you can determine your own level of proficiency in Italian by working through the descriptors for each of the CEFR language levels, available HERE.* **
