The Complete group course contains a grammar part and a conversational language course at our Italian language school, which are classical Italian language courses.
These classical Italian courses can be started every Monday. As in the other Italian language courses, each student takes a written and an oral test on the first morning of the course, so their level of competence in the Italian language can be defined precisely. This procedure guarantees the participants of our Italian courses a high efficiency of learning by placing them in one of our 15 efficiency level groups according to language competence.
The Complete course is the most favourite Italian course, booked by the majority of our students of all ages and all language levels.
Size of groups
The Complete courses are carried out in small groups of 3 to 8 course participants.
