チェントロストゥーディイタリアニはイタリア中部マルケ州のイタリア語学校です。

The methodological criteria which has always guided us in the organization of our Italian courses for foreigners is that of putting the student - every single student, with his or her personality and full potential - at the centre of our attentions. In this we feel to be heirs of the great Italian humanistic tradition, but at the same time we are open to the technological innovations of our time.


We make a discreet and selective use of the most well-known teaching methods (communicative, logical-functional, rational study of the language, etc.) adapting them, case by case, to the needs and to the teaching objectives. Our method is therefore experimental, flexible, adaptable; in a word it is "creative", and consequently inimitable. We have elaborated our own specific educational strategy. The study programmes of the language are divided up in 8 different levels (Beginners 1st and 2nd, Pre-intermediate 1st and 2nd, Intermediate 1st and 2nd, Advanced 1st and 2nd), plus the Superior course for Italian teachers abroad.
The class groups are formed based upon the results of the entrance test and upon the total number of students. In all the courses - taking into consideration the characteristics of each level - we aim for the same objective: to make the student capable of understanding, speaking, reading and writing the living language fluently; we obtain really special results also with the beginners.
In order to reach these objectives we guarantee each student a special individual attention (tutorial) throughout the whole week and especially on Saturday morning.
We have studied a very varied and balanced weekly dose between language lessons, conversation and culture according to the needs of each level. All the courses have 25 hours of lessons weekly. The courses for beginners and pre-intermediates have 17 hours of language and conversation, plus 4 hours of supplementary conversation and 4 hours of culture; the courses for intermediates have 17 hours of language and conversation and 8 of culture; the courses for advanced have 14 hours of language and conversation and 11 of culture. The superior course has its own specific programme, very rich in cultural subjects: 11 hours of language and conversation and 14 hours of culture.
All the cultural subjects are included in the enrolment fees for the courses and they are divided in curriculum and optional subjects. The curriculum subjects (in the morning) are those which are designed to give basic cultural knowledge to all the class group, and they vary, naturally, from class to class; The optional subjects (in the afternoon) are designed to carefully look into individual interests and they can be attended by all who are interested. In order to include them in the programme there must be at least 5 interested students.
