Italiano
The Italian classes for religious students offered by Mangiaparole – Italian Language School are taught by highly experienced teachers specialized in teaching Italian as a second language within religious communities, colleges, and prestigious pontifical universities. These educators apply a communicative and humanistic-affective approach, ensuring that students learn the language in a straightforward and organic manner.
For many seminarians, priests, nuns, and religious students from all over the world, the Italian language has become necessary to communicate, study, and work. Many religious students attend Italian courses with the dual objective of continuing their studies at the pontifical universities in Rome and carrying out their pastoral service in Italian dioceses.
From a didactic standpoint, Mangiaparole School places great emphasis on meeting the communicative and linguistic requirements of priests, religious individuals, nuns, and seminarians. Our approach not only facilitates language acquisition but also provides insights into Italian culture, society, and way of life. We understand that religious students have specific needs, including a deep understanding of societal changes, the evolving dynamics between Italians and the Church, as well as the interactions between young people and various religious practices.
INTENSIVE ITALIAN COURSE FOR RELIGIOUS STUDENTS
The course offered is an intensive preparation program designed for students aspiring to pursue studies and/or excel in the entrance exams for pontifical universities. It places emphasis on addressing the linguistic and communicative needs that are indispensable for a successful academic journey. The curriculum encompasses a rich array of theological and cultural subjects that exemplify our country’s heritage, covering the analysis of authentic texts, sacred writings, newspaper articles, as well as written and oral production activities.
Throughout the course, students’ progress is monitored by the instructor through meticulous grammatical assessments, comprehensive written and oral comprehension tests (including readings and listening exercises), and regular consultations with the dedicated didactic director, Anita Lorenzotti. As the program nears its conclusion, a comprehensive final examination is administered, complemented by individual meetings to simulate the oral component of the Italian exam, ensuring students are fully prepared.
The ultimate objective is to guide students in acquiring linguistic and communicative skills at the B1/B2 level, as defined by the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR).

The intensive course typically spans a duration of 80 to 100 hours of comprehensive instruction, which is typically completed within a period of 5 to 6 weeks.
