• Understanding and being able to express oneself about specific current affairs  

• Giving one’s opinion on civic duties and responsibilities.  

• Reacting to different art forms and cultural items (music, paintings, films etc.)  

Key grammatical points covered include:  

• Consolidating use of the subjunctive . E.g. Non penso che questa sia una buona idea.  

• The subjunctive - hopes, doubt. E.g. Spero l’esame vada bene.   

• The past conditional. E.g. Avrei voluto tanto vivere negli anni 60. 

• Possessive pronouns. E.g. Hai preso l’ombrello? Io ho preso il mio.

CEFR levels indicated on our level descriptors are not a guarantee that you can take the associated Italian exam for this level. If you would like to take an external Italian exam, please speak to your tutor to discuss what they think would be most appropriate.
