Language acquisition

In general, language teaching objectives include:

Graduating students are expected to be able to speak Italian with sufficient accuracy to participate effectively in most conversations on practical, social and abstract topics. They should be able to interact in standard Italian, be aware of social and cultural differences, and follow the essentials of more complex extended spoken and written discourse. In their own writing, students should be able to express themselves effectively in essays and research papers in the areas of interest to them.
