Overview
Through the Italian Beginners Step 1 (Online) from The University of Edinburgh you will learn to give basic personal information, talk about your belongings and order food in a restaurant.
You will develop listening, speaking, reading and writing skills in your weekly online classes, held on Zoom, and through further interactive and independent activities, on our learning platform, Canvas.
Class-based activities include speaking, small-group role-plays, listening to dialogues or watching video clips.
Because language learning requires regular practice, you will consolidate your skills with vocabulary, grammar and writing exercises between classes.
You will need access to a computer equipped with a camera and microphone, a headset or earphones and a reliable internet connection. You will be provided with all necessary course materials digitally.
If you have fully engaged with all the learning activities and have attended regularly, by the end of the course, you should be able to:
