General course "GA"

This course of a general character consists essentially of two parts: the first part is concerned mainly with study and analysis of the grammatical and structural aspects of the language. The first teacher-to-class phase is followed by consolidation exercises done both in class and at home; the second part consists in activities that develop communicative competence and writing skills. Through games, role play, readings, discussions, listening to dialogues, songs, watching films, short compositions and dictations, our mother tongue teachers, qualified in the teaching of Italian to foreigners, guide the students towards an improvement in their global knowledge of the language.

Elements of Italian culture and civilization are always subjects of conversation and comparison during the lessons in class and, according to the level of knowledge the students have of the Italian language, the subjects discussed will range from simple (e.g. the sequence of dishes of a typical Italian meal) to more complex (e.g. current affairs in Italy). In this phase of the lesson, in groups with the necessary competence, the reading of newspapers and extracts from literature is included.
The course is held in Pisa and consists of 20 lessons a week, 4 lessons a day, each of 55 minutes, from 09.00 to 13.00.
