Dear Students,

We are excited to announce that we are transitioning into a new textbook series, il Nuovo Affresco Italiano, for our A1, A2, B1, B2, classes. After careful consideration and planning, we like the way the information is presented, how it builds on topics from earlier chapters and offers a great review before continuing to the next lesson, benefiting our students.

Our program is designed to correspond with levels in the Common European Framework of Reference for Language (CEFRL). This is the recognized system of the language-learning community in Europe. This system is a guideline for measuring and validating the proficiency of the language learners across Europe. The six levels within the CEFRL are A1 Beginners, A2 Elementary, B1 Intermediate, B2 Upper Intermediate, C1 Advanced and C2 Proficiency.

We will continue to use Prego for some classes, while we are transitioning in the new book, to help reduce the costs for the student.We will start in this Spring 2023 session with A1 – Beginner 1 class.
