For each subject listed under available programs, you will find academic information on the program and how to apply. What are the language courses like, and are there any opportunities to practice Italian language skills at LdM? The language methodology used at LdM is action-oriented and aims at a harmonious development of the main linguistic skills. The small number of students per class and the varied teaching techniques enable each student to be an active participant in the learning process. Language is always presented in context, allowing students to put what has been studied into practice immediately. In each course, the main language skills -- listening, speaking, reading and writing -- are developed gradually through a wide range of activities. During class, students will develop communication strategies, expand and use vocabulary, improve listening skills, work on grammar, and develop reading and writing skills. Speaking skills are practiced daily through varied teaching techniques (dramatization, role-play, oral presentations, and open discussions). These language patterns will be taught within a cultural context that will help students become familiar with the most significant elements of Italian cultural life. The language department also helps LdM students find Italian students interested in conversation exchange so that they can meet weekly and work on their language skills. |
