Italian Group Conversation Class - Level 2 - La Famiglia

This class is suggest for intermediate and advanced students.

Please note that the class will be run in Italian. Therefore, basic knowledge of the Italian language is required to participate in the class.

The family (la famiglia) is the most important aspect of an Italian's life. It provides emotional and economic support to the individual and often forms the basis of their social circles.

The stereotyped image of the large and traditional Italian families with more than six children is just an old memory. On average, they have become smaller in size over the past few decades as the fertility rate has declined. In addition, the fast economic pace in the 21st century has also changed family dynamics.

In this class, we'll briefly review how the model of the Italian family is changed in the past years. We will also share our thoughts about family and values that had the power to shape you, your partner, your children, and anyone else who is part of your family unit.

Pre-work for the class (not mandatory, but strongly recommended).

1. Prepare a short introduction about yourself focused on your family (relationship, values, traditions)- max 3 minutes.
2. Read the article you'll receive after registration. Then, underline all the new words, find their meaning on the dictionary (you will be asked to share at least 3 of them during the class), and summarize the article's      main points

In this level, you will practice and improve:

• Interact with a degree of fluency and spontaneity that makes regular interaction with native speakers quite possible without strain for either party.
• Express ideas fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions.
• Use language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes.
