We organise preparation courses for the two most important exams for Italian as a foreign language, CILS and CELI. If you want to study in an Italian university, possession of a CILS or CELI certificate is often compulsory.
Before starting a course the teacher will test all your language skills - reading, writing, listening, speaking and grammar - to understand what level of exam you should do (from A1 to C2 in the case of CILS and from A2 to C2 in the case of CELI).
To maximise the benefit of the course, classes are small so the teacher can concentrate on your weaknesses and work to improve all your language skills. As well as improving your Italian you will become familiar with how the exam works and you will be given preparation as to how to manage the time restraints of the exam and to understand what the exam really wants fom you.
We also offer the opportunity to prepare for these exams online from the comfort of your own home at a time and frequency which suits you.
