UMBR ITLN 311 - Italian through Culture - Advanced Inter

Institution:

Arcadia University

Subject:

Description:

Intensive Italian through Culture, offered in the summer term, combines intensive language instruction with a rich immersion in Italian culture, past as well as present. The program has two components: Italian language classes and speaking opportunities; and liberal arts cultural events conducted in Italian. Students take Italian language courses at the Umbra Institute at the level that best suits them, from beginning to advanced Italian. In addition, the Umbra Institute organizes Tandem, a biweekly language exchange get-together with Italians, in order for students to have the opportunity of meeting Italians with whom they can practice Italian. In previous years liberal arts events have included tours of Perugia, Assisi and Rome conducted in Italian by Italian guides; instruction in Italian on the art of making ice cream; a guided tour in Italian of the famous Ubaldo Grazia ceramics showroom and factory in the nearby town of Deruta, and guided tours in Italian of local museums and galleries.
