Italian A2.1 Elementary Course

Digital learning materials are included with your course

• Your course fee includes one digital copy of the learning materials. If you’d prefer a hard copy, you can purchase one from our recommended supplier at an extra cost. 
• Public group classes are designed for 30 academic hours per CEFR level. If the group grows to 5-7 students, we’ll extend the program by 10 academic hours. If only two students enroll before the course starts, the group will shift to a semi-private format with 20 academic hours. 
• Want to switch to a different group or schedule? No problem! Just let us know at least 7 days before the course starts. 
• All our teachers are native speakers of the target language. If your teacher falls ill or has an emergency, we’ll arrange a substitute who’s fully briefed on your progress. 
• Once you’ve started with your group, switching to another group or schedule isn’t possible. 
• Please note that course fees are non-refundable once the group classes have begun. 
• We can record group lessons for later viewing, but only if everyone in the class agrees before the course starts. 
• At the end of every program, you’ll take a final exam (both written and verbal). To move up to the next CEFR level, you’ll need to score at least 70%. 
• After completing your final exam, you’ll receive a progress report, recommendations, and a certification for your hard work!

What to Expect

• Final Exam: At the end of the course, you will take a written and verbal exam. A score of 70% is required to progress to the next level.
