  • Italian for Dialect Speakers

    Italian for Dialect Speakers image

    Italian for Dialect Speakers is designed to meet the specific needs of second generation Italians who have somehow detached from the language and culture of current Italy. The course focuses on the structure of standard spoken and written Italian and is adapted to meet the specific grammatical and cultural needs of people who use Italian as a second language. It is ideal for those who have always spoken a mixture of Italian dialect and English at home or who have visited or spoken to relatives in Italy and realised they found it hard to communicate in situations where the dialect was not spoken.
