Presentation

Most Italian language academies and schools offer traditional teaching based on repeating simple linguistic structures with no connection to properly structured content or concrete skills. However, teachers and psychologists believe that the best way to stimulate language learning is not to subject the learner to formalized, linear learning - for example, with rote learning - but rather, to encourage imagination and learning through sensory exploration in order to be able to understand and interpret what is around us.

This allows the brain to work and learn a second language in the most natural way possible, in the same way that we learned our mother tongue.

The only intensive program 100% specifically designed to develop your speaking skills in order to obtain the CEFR Italian Level B2.

In the Online Conversation Classes for B2 Italian , we work on skills with more than 100 different oral expression and interaction activities and prepare you to pass the oral component of the official Italian B2 certificate.

It is proven that learning languages increases your intelligence. Learning a foreign language strengthens the brain's neural networks”

General Objectives

• Understand, interact and express yourself in a extensive range of situations, both orally and written, with good control of linguistic resources and with a degree of precision and ease that allows for natural communication with native speakers.  
• Acquire deeper knowledge of sociocultural aspects related to these situations and alter your register, attitudes and gestures appropriately in each situation. 
• Internalize new linguistic resources through functional and formal practice and to reinforce the use of those already known; to reflect on mistakes in order to be able to correct yourself.
• Become aware of the communication and learning strategies that help you the most, so that you can use them intentionally. 
• Develop independence in the planning, carrying out, evaluation and improvement of your own learning.

Specific Objectives

Oral Comprehension

• Understand any type of message, both live and recorded (lively conversations between native speakers, lectures, talks and reports, statements and other forms of linguistically complex academic and professional presentations), understanding the content of the information and identifying the points of view and attitudes of the speakers, as long as there‘s no excessive noise in the background, inadequate structuring of the discourse or idiomatic use of the language.

In the TECH CEFR B2 exam preparation course you will find more than 100 activities focused on developing your oral skills.

Oral Expression

• Produce long, coherent and organized texts on a wide range of either general issues, or on your area of expertise, in order to transmit information, narrate, describe, expose or argue with clarity, while expanding and defending your ideas and highlighting significant aspects.
• Produce flexible speech, with clear and natural pronunciation, confidently expressing yourself with precision and a good level of self-correction, showing clear fluidity even in longer, more complex periods of speech.  
• Adequately interact in a wide range of diverse situations and on general, academic and professional topics, cooperating and expressing yourself with spontaneity and efficiency, often showing clear fluency and adjusting the register and politeness to the specific situation.
• Understand and express ideas, opinions, agreements, arguments, advice and complex information, clearly marking the relation between your ideas. 

Sociocultural and sociolinguistic competence 

• Broaden and diversify your knowledge of sociocultural aspects of communities where they speak the language, acquiring a natural and confident manner of speaking, which doesn’t attract attention nor leads to special treatment, different to that given to native speakers. Furthermore, gain knowledge of how to adjust your behavior, reactions, attitude, message and wording to any changes in situation, style and emphasis. 
• Identify the most important aspects of a variety of common formal and informal oral and written registers, and appropriately use the expressions, pronunciation and intonation of the most common registers that you are most in contact with. 
• Perceive the differentiating characteristics of the Italian language pattern in relation to other widespread or nearby patterns.

Linguistic Competence

• Manage a wide and varied repertoire of linguistic resources, including complex syntax and textual grammar, to naturally approach with precision and clarity texts on a vast range of situations and topics, almost without showing you have limited knowledge of what you want to say.  
• Flexibly adapt to changes in direction, register and emphasis, although hesitations and circumlocutions can still occur. 
• Efficiently use a variety of connectors and discourse markers to clearly show the link between different ideas and successfully make the speech cohesive in a flexible and efficient way.  
• Possess good control of linguistic resources with very few mistakes.  When using complex structures, especially in discourse development, and even more so in oral communication or in less common situations, there are sometimes cohesion or inappropriate register mistakes, as well as sporadic slips or some "resistant" errors in less commonly controlled situations. In these cases, the student will be capable of self-correcting.

To consolidate all these skills, you will have access to more than 500 lexical, vocabulary and sociocultural activities”

Did you know?

Communicative competence is not merely limited to the knowledge and ability to use the linguistic code, but has other broader dimensions, which place it in direct relation with other competences such as information processing and digital competence, learning to learn, social and civic competence, or cultural and artistic competence.

This implies a cultural immersion that is only possible through direct and continuous interaction with native speakers and real conversational situations.
