Language courses for beginners

General language courses dedicated to all those who wish to approach the study of a new language. These courses are particularly suitable for professionals and students who, for reasons related to work or study, need to move abroad and therefore require an introduction to the language of the host country. The learning of grammatical and syntactic structures and of lexicon is aimed at the practical use of the language mainly in everyday contexts. The programs of the courses are developed in collaboration with the students to ensure they meet their needs at every stage of the learning process. The teaching materials, selected by the teacher, are organized in such a way as to prepare students from the outset for the learning of spoken language, until complete and conscious independence in communication is achieved.

Professional language courses

Language courses with specific learning programs, dedicated to professionals and students with prior language knowledge who wish to acquire sectoral language skills. These courses allow all those who have specific learning needs in a particular linguistic domain, whether for work or study purposes, to expand their fund of linguistic knowledge and education through specially structured teaching units with customized content, aimed at optimizing the ability to apply the acquired content to a specific communicative context.

Business group courses

Language courses structured according to the specific communication needs of each company and the professional role of the participants. The courses include flexible teaching modules aimed at developing oral and written expression and comprehension skills, as well as expanding the lexicon used in each specific professional field. The teaching program, developed and shared with the client company and participants, includes oral and written exercises and simulation techniques (role playing) that reproduce routine communicative situations. Specific topics are covered, such as: writing a commercial or technical email, reading and understanding corporate documentation, managing a business phone call, leading a negotiation, drafting a product presentation, and public speaking. Additionally, socio-cultural themes are addressed to enable participants to acquire the competency indispensable to communicate in non-professional contexts, with the aim of overcoming natural linguistic and communicative barriers by learning to engage comfortably in informal conversations.

Business communication tutoring

The business communication tutoring service is designed to support companies, professionals, and students in international communication activities. It assists in drafting and delivering a presentation in a foreign language, both in corporate and academic ambits, from the outlines of the agenda to the presentation of content and understanding of questions posed by the audience. It is helpful in negotiating in a foreign language, clearly outlining the premises, terms, and objectives of the negotiation, as well as in learning to catch the communicative nuances of interlocutors, effectively and correctly laying down one’s own conditions. Additionally, it contributes to adequately training the sales force, enabling them to detail the value of the company’s product, verify the correct perception of the product by the customer, and clarify any doubts, successfully defining sales strategies.

Italian language courses for foreigners

Language and culture courses in Italian aimed at foreign citizens who are studying or working in Italy and wish to learn the Italian language from scratch or refine their knowledge in relation to a specific academic or professional field, in order to acquire the communication tools essential for full integration into the socio-economic fabric of our country.
