Muss ich für einen Sprachkurs in Italien über bestimmte Sprachkenntnisse verfügen?
Do I need to have certain language skills for a language course in Italy?
No matter how much or little Italian you can speak so far, in language schools in Italy you can usually attend a language course at all levels. This means that even beginners without any knowledge of Italian can attend a course with other participants of the same language level without being at a disadvantage. Most language schools use a classification according to the Common European Framework of Reference, which divides the levels A1, A2, B1, B2, C1 and C2, from beginner level to almost native speaker level. Some Italian language schools also offer intermediate levels, such as A1-A2, in order to be able to offer the right language course for all language students. For business courses, language skills of at least level B1 are usually required in order to provide a solid foundation for each participant.
