Basic Italian for Travelers

Wouldn't it be a wonderful idea to go to Italy and be able to communicate with the locals? The Italians will really appreciate your efforts, and they will help you too.
This course is designed for travelers who want to break the language barrier with some basic, practical communication skills. You will be able to carry on a basic Italian conversation at a hotel, train station, restaurant, airport, rent-a-car office, currency exchange office, etc. You will be able to introduce yourself and have a casual conversation while traveling.
No previous knowledge of Italian is required. A "Traveler's Manual" is included in the course and will be emailed to you. In addition, practical suggestions, itineraries, and information will be discussed during class.
