Key information

To be confirmed

Overview

Our Italian (Beginners) evening language classes are open to adult learners, aged 18 and over, and are taught by skilled and experienced tutors.

Classes are delivered over two terms and you can join at the beginning of each term. Please note that Term 2 is a continuation of Term 1. If you are a complete beginner, you should not join mid-way through the year, but instead wait and join in the autumn when the complete beginner courses start. To complete a full level, you need to attend the two consecutive terms.

To ensure that you enrol on the right course please check your language level with our tutors at one of our open evenings. Alternatively, you can email us to arrange a telephone consultation.

Please see our homepage for term times.

I liked that the course covered a wide variety of subjects which are useful to use if on holiday or within my work which was really useful. Valeria was really supportive and clear in her teaching and explaining, very approachable and a lovely bubbly personality.
