PARLIAMO 3
Meads and Seaford u3a joint group - Alfriston-based
Conversational Italian
(Levels B1 - B2 of the Common European Framework of Reference for Languages (CEFR))
Meets 1st and 3rd Wednesday am in Alfriston (10.30 - 12.30)

Members contribute £1 per session for tea/coffee and biscuits

Parliamo 3 is for people who already know Italian reasonably well and can speak it,
although perhaps not to the same level as their reading comprehension. We meet twice
a month in open and friendly two-hour sessions in which everyone gets the chance to
put their Italian into practice, and hopefully improve it over time. Our programme is
based on a mixture of loosely structured topics which are linked in some way to things
Italian.

Our linguistic and cultural explorations include individual presentations, book extracts,
video podcasts, TV and film snippets, Italian songs and their lyrics, online newspaper
articles and whatever else takes our fancy. All members can contribute ideas for topics.

The Group’s current speaking level is predominantly intermediate to post-intermediate
and, whatever their level, members are encouraged (and collectively helped) to always
use Italian when speaking in the group.
