First Year Review
The First Year Review course provides focused practice with the major topics covered in the first year of beginning Italian. It is designed for students to consolidate their understanding and develop a facility with those topics. The First Year Review is intended for those who have finished the Basic Italian series or those who are returning to Italian with previous study of basic/beginning Italian.

Intermediate Italian
Intermediate courses focus on building a higher-level vocabulary and grammar, including combined pronouns, advanced verb tenses and idioms. New students can join our second-year program provided that their previous studies have covered basic grammar. Intermediate and Conversation classes are structured by level and are not a series. New students can join these classes at any point during the year and will join the group in progress. If you are not sure of your level, please contact daniela@sentieri.com to determine which class you should join.

Conversation Courses
These courses are taught at five different levels: Conversation 1, Conversation 2, Conversation 3, Conversation 4 and Book Club. These are for students who have had at least three years of formal Italian instruction. We stimulate conversation with advanced textbooks, film excerpts, newspaper articles, short stories and cultural materials that emphasize Italy’s current events. New students should have a minimum of three years of advanced study. The most advanced conversational group and book club are comprised of students with at least five years of experience.
