By the end of the course, students will be able to greet people, introduce themselves, ask for directions, order coffee, drinks and food, buy train tickets, and handle a variety of everyday travel situations in Italian.
Perfect for those preparing for a holiday in Italy, as well as anyone looking for a fun first taste of the language or a chance to strengthen the foundations before joining a beginners’ course in the autumn.
