Italian for Beginners II

What will I learn?

After a quick recap of the topics studied during the course Italian for beginners, this course continues with more complex situations and we will start talking about the past.

At this level you will become familiar with the following themes: talking about your body and your emotions, your health and going to the doctor, housing, accommodation and cohabitation as well as talking about the recent past. Additionally, you will cover material about Italian culture (e.g. music, food, gestures, monuments, geography).

Each class has a maximum of 8 participants, which ensures you get the most out of it. The teacher provides personal feedback, you get a lot of time to speak and simultaneously you learn from classmates who have other questions and experiences.

Evening classes

We offer these courses in the evenings at 17:15-19:15 or 19:30-21:30. The exact day and time will be decided at the beginning of each block on the basis of the students’ availability.

People are saying

Geduldige en vriendelijke lerares

De Italiaanse les wordt gegeven door een geduldige, vriendelijke lerares die goed weet hoe ze iets moet overbrengen en zelf veel kennis van zaken heeft waardoor ze goed uitleg kan geven. – Nienke

Great teacher!

If you do Italian with Kookoovaja, do yourself a favour and go for Valentina as teacher. She makes the class fun and keeps energy in!
– Tom

Echt een aanrader!

De perfecte manier om een nieuwe taal te leren. En ook al kan het ivm Corona niet fysiek, het les hebben via video gaat prima, en scheelt ook weer reistijd. Valentina is een goede en leuke docent. Ze weet ook veel van de cultuur en geschiedenis. Echt een aanrader! Natascha

Creative methods and focus on grammar

I really liked the teacher, the focus on grammar which allowed me to really progress to a higher level of linguistic understanding, the conversation in the class in Italian, the creative teaching methods e.g. incorporating music.
