The Italian: Second Language General course is designed to enable students to gain knowledge and an understanding of the culture and the language of Italian-speaking communities. The course focuses on the interrelationship of language and culture and equips students with the skills needed to function in an increasingly globalised society, a culturally and linguistically diverse local community, and provides them with the foundation for life-long language learning.

Relevant and engaging tasks, delivered through a range of appropriate contexts and topics, develop literacy in the Italian language as well as extend literacy development in English.

  • A language gives students an edge in the workplace. Italian is a good language to choose as the hospitality and tourism industries in Australia have strong connections with Italy and Italian communities.
