Courses
Business Italian
We know that working students prioritise time and comfort. It is this awareness that has led italianoagenova to propose courses taught directly in the workplace, guaranteeing absolute flexibility in lesson planning.
Every course is structured to a specific level in accordance with the Common European Framework of Reference. This does not mean, however, that it is not able to welcome changes and more in-depth study of specific topics that may be selected by the company and approved by the teacher. We can also focus lessons around specific vocabulary involved in a particular field of work or interest.
Students’ linguistic knowledge is first evaluated with a placement test, and progress monitored closely throughout the course.
Italian on holiday
These courses are perfect for the student wishing to organise an original, alternative holiday, combining tourism with linguistic and cultural interests.
The package includes: accommodation in one of the fantastic locations on the Liguria Riviera, and morning or afternoon lessons directly taught in a B&B or hotel.

Italian in the kitchen
Specifically designed for food lovers, these courses blend Italian with cookery lessons, organised in collaboration with the ‘Chef per caso’ cookery school.
Courses are organised into 3½ hour meetings comprising an hour’s study of Italian, particularly on food-related topics, and 2½ hours of practical lessons in kitchen. A lunch or wine tasting session follows.
Recipes can be chosen at the start of the course, from traditional Liguria or classic Italian dishes.
In addition to the teaching materials provided by italianoagenova, each student will also be given a recipe booklet and the embroidered ‘Chef per caso’ apron.
Wine lovers can join in organised trips to vineyards and wine cellars in the famous area of Gavi in Piedmont.
Italian for children
Our children’s courses target young foreigners requiring language practice.
The teaching method is based on glottodidactic studies for children and encourages the study of Italian through creative, imaginative and fun activities.
The course is only planned after one or more meetings between the families and the teacher.
Lessons can be taught at home or in a school.
