If you already have a good foundational knowledge of the Italian language, then City of Portsmouth College's Italian for Advanced course will help get your skills to the next level.

This course will consolidate basic structures used in various topics in Italian. You will develop an awareness of verbs, conjugation and grammatical structures to help converse in Italian on a variety of topics.

This course is for those with a basic knowledge of Italian (equivalent of at least 60 hours of classroom study).

This course will be held for 1.5 hours a week, Wednesdays 7.15-8.45pm (term time only). You will be expected to attend all of your timetabled sessions on time, unless prior arrangement has been made and agreed with your tutor.

If a student arrives more than 10 minutes late for class they may be asked to leave. If a student is absent for three consecutive weeks without notice they will automatically be withdrawn from the course.

While you will not receive a formal qualification, this fun and informative course will help expand and practice your skills in Italian.

After completing this course, you will understand and use basic and some more complex dialogues on a variety of topics and converse in Italian.

If you’re aged 19 or over you might qualify for an Advanced Learner Loan. It’s easy to apply for and you won’t have to pay anything back until you’re earning over £25,000.
