EDMONT / ITALIAN LANGUAGE

Individual Italian language lessons

Individual lessons with a specialist Italian tutor at EDMONT, either on their own or alongside admissions support. The programme is built around the current level, the objective and the timeline.

01

How it works

How the work is organised

Lessons are individual. Admissions support is not a precondition: language preparation is available as a standalone format, for those studying Italian for themselves, for work, ahead of a move, or out of an interest in the language and its culture.

For applicants, preparation can be added to admissions support. EDMONT then compares the requirements of the selected programmes with the current level and the application deadlines, and lessons are built around the date by which the level has to be evidenced.

Individual language preparation is not included in the cost of admissions support and is arranged separately.
