Programme

The course aims to further develop the four skills to C1 level with particular emphasis on the

comparative analysis of Italian and English grammar . At the end of the course students are expected

to be able to apply their grammar knowledge to producing correct written English versions of Italian

texts, completing cloze texts and structural transformation exercises. Students will also develop oral

paraphrasing skills and will be required to give a group presentation on a comparative analysis of a

feature of their choice of the English/ Italian grammar systems. The final exam will be a brief

translation (approx. 200 words) from Italian to English.

Students are expected to do a considerable amount of work as preparation for lessons. Every two-hour lesson requires at least two hours of preparation as private study.
