Advanced Italian
You already know Italian. Now it’s time to live the language.
Our Advanced program is designed for proficient speakers who want to maintain and refine their Italian through conversation, discussion, and authentic cultural content. Conducted entirely in Italian, the course creates an immersive environment where the language is not simply studied — it is used.
C1/C2 - Speak naturally. Think in Italian. Express yourself without limits.
At this level, the focus shifts away from traditional grammar lessons. Students strengthen their Italian primarily through speaking, listening, reading, and discussion, developing greater fluency, spontaneity, precision, and a richer vocabulary.
Conversations explore a wide variety of topics, from everyday life and travel to Italian culture, society, current events, art, traditions, geography, and Made in Italy. Authentic articles, videos, and other materials provide opportunities for discussion and exposure to Italian as it is actually spoken and written.
Grammar is addressed in context when needed, rather than taught as the main focus of the course.
What you’ll develop:
Fluency and spontaneity • Advanced vocabulary • Idiomatic and natural expressions • Listening comprehension • Pronunciation and intonation • Ability to discuss complex topics • Expressing and defending opinions • Understanding cultural nuances • Greater precision and flexibility in spoken Italian
C1/ C2 is for you if: you can already communicate comfortably in Italian and are looking for an immersive environment where you can practice, maintain, and refine your Italian through real conversation.
Italian Advanced classes are offered during the Winter, Spring, Summer, and Fall quarters.
