About Course

Aiming for top-level Italian? This C1 live course builds real mastery so you can communicate fluently and naturally in social, academic, and professional settings. We’ll dive into complex topics—culture, politics, history, society—and work with longer, specialized and literary texts. You’ll refine all four skills while polishing advanced grammar (subjunctive, complex verb constructions, passive, pronouns and clitics) and sophisticated functions like argumentation, nuance, and register. Classes are live and highly interactive, and I’ll provide all digital materials and weekly homework—no textbooks to buy. You’ll receive a Certificate of Attendance at the end.
