Piccola Università Italiana

The approach used by the Piccola Università Italiana is pragmatic-communicative, focused on effective learning and harmonious development of the four language skills. This approach also includes contributions from playful teaching and various methods of the humanistic-affective approach. The basic teaching and cultural activity include: frontal Italian language lessons, daily conversational activities related to grammar lessons for the expansion of vocabulary and communication skills. Furthermore, on both campuses in Trieste and in Tropea, there are cultural activities, indoor and outdoor, which allow you to live the experience of language learning at 360 degrees. The familiar, colourful, and cheerful atmosphere will enrich your learning experience, making it unique and truly unforgettable. We strongly believe that context is important to guarantee our students effective and pleasant learning experiences. That’s why the environment of our schools is always warm and welcoming.
