Program Overview

Program Description:

Dilit International House was established in 1974, was one of the first language schools in Italy to teach Italian as a Foreign Language and has established itself as one of the most prestigious Italian Language Schools in the country today! The school caters for students from all over the world at all levels and with a wide variety of needs. The minimum age is 16. Each year about 2000 students from more than 60 countries come to Dilit-International House. This situation avoids the concentration of students of the same nationality and favors the use of Italian outside the classroom and the exchange between different people and cultures.


Course Information: Each lesson is made up of a sequence of activities each of which sets out to develop a particular aspect of language skill or knowledge.

The activities promote and develop the abilities of understanding and producing both spoken and written Italian and the ability to analyze Italian grammar.

The general approach is communicative and student-centered.

The Italian language presented and studied is up-to date, authentic material is used right form the start and students are placed in real communicative situations.
