Italian Immersion

Description

We aim to develop students’ overall communicative competence, which includes not only grammatical accuracy but also fluency, pronunciation, vocabulary use, and cultural awareness. Students are encouraged to communicate meaningfully and effectively, even if they make errors. We integrated skills: The communicative approach emphasizes the integration of the four language skills – listening, speaking, reading, and writing. Rather than teaching these skills in isolation, they are interconnected and practiced together in authentic language use situations. We contextualized learning: Language is taught in meaningful contexts, such as discussing a specific topic, describing real-life situations, or engaging in interactive tasks. This helps students understand how language is used in different situations and develops their ability to adapt their language to various contexts.
