Italian - also a Swiss national language - is taught by numerous language schools in many places. These are by no means exclusively standardized courses for learning Italian, but more and more Italian schools are focusing on special courses. These are aimed at specific professional groups, for example, and teach "affari italiani" - business Italian in the fields of insurance, finance, medicine, etc.
In addition to the usual language courses, diploma courses are also offered for learning Italian, which are completed with an award such as the CELI, CILS or AIL. The examination pressure and the intensity of such Italian diploma courses are correspondingly high.
In recent years, distance learning courses have become increasingly popular, making it possible to learn Italian online via the internet. The advantages of this are that you can learn Italian anywhere and at any time, making it easy to combine an online Italian course with an irregular and demanding working life.
Only available for a short time, but very popular are the increasingly well-developed and comprehensive language learning apps, which can be downloaded onto smartphones and tablets for little or no cost. This makes it possible to learn Italian on the go and in small steps and is very suitable for commuters, for example, who want to make more of their time on public transport.
However, it is also clear that you can only really learn a language well if you speak, read and write it regularly. This means that language courses, language trips and stays abroad in Italy or a job or study semester in Ticino, for example, are still the options with the best chances of learning Italian quickly and efficiently. Is it time for you to learn Italian too?
