Italian book club
Now that you have achieved a higher level of Italian you might want to read authentic material. Reading Italian literature and specifically novels is one of the best ways to improve your Italian language, expand your vocabulary and increase your knowledge of the Italian culture.
Parla Italiano School book club is on Zoom. Readers wishing to participate will need to have achieved an intermediate or more advanced level of Italian.
The main aim of the club is to discuss the excerpts, to develop speaking and to work on lexis. Please note that we not always read the entire book but only a selected chapter, which can be easily read within the timeframe. The session will have some structure but also enough flexibility so that the participants can truly express themselves fully. Zoom allows for smaller groups to be formed within the class, so that participants can have plenty of talking time during the session. Students will have the opportunity to meet different, likeminded people who enjoy discussing and exchanging ideas. The teacher will supervise and guide the discussion, she will be available to help and to clarify any items of language if required.
The programme will be carefully selected. It will include contemporary authors such as Stefania Auci, Antonio Tabucchi, Dacia Maraini, Lorenzo Maroni, Elsa Morante, Alessandro Baricco and so on.
