We know. Have a look at these Frequently Asked ones, and if you still have any, drop us a message: we're a friendly bunch!
There are 4 lessons in the course. All the lessons take place on Zoom.
We will run this course two times:
The lessons will be exactly the same and if you get your access now, you will be able to participate in all the lessons you want at the most convenient times for you.
It means that we know you're busy and hopefully also enjoying some holidays, so we will be running the same course twice to allow you to take part whenever you can. The lessons in July will be in the morning, while the lessons at the end of August-beginning of September will be in the afternoon.
By getting your access to the course, you will be able to participate in all these lessons. So, even if you want to do the same lesson twice, you can!
The topics covered in this course were carefully selected based on our analysis of previous domande disciplinari and tracce. Most questions related to the UK and USA, so these countries are predominant, but we also cover the topics in relation to Australia, India, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland, Singapore and South Africa.

This course includes live lessons, but also a lot of materials that will be available to you for self-study: the video recordings of the lessons with English subtitles, the lesson slides and the downloadable worksheets.
You will have access to all these materials forever - no expiry date.
You certainly can. Once you complete your course, you will be able to download a certificate of attendance for 8 hours and your name on it automatically from the platform (but we can help you out if you can't do it automatically).
If you can't join live in July, you can join live in August. If you can't join live at all, that's not a problem: all the lessons will be recorded and you will find them in your course, with subtitles, from the end of July. You can potentially study the full course in self-study mode - with unlimited access, forever.
The cost for this course includes all the live lessons and all the self-study materials with unlimited, lifetime access. Until 26 July, the early bird, discounted cost is 69 euros with coupon code EARLYBIRD10. This will go up from 27 July.

That's certainly our intention! We know culture is a very vast topic, so you need the lessons to be engaging to make the content memorable and easy to understand. Incindentally, that's why it's taken us absolutely ages to design this course - we wanted to get it just right.
The course is based on the domande disciplinari and tracce of the oral exam, so it is custom-made to make you pass the exam.
However, and this is a big however, it was also designed as a genuinely interesting (we hope) opportunity to learn more about various aspects of culture in English-speaking countries - including the good, the bad and the weird.
In our view, this makes it a lovely opportunity to develop your knowledge, become a better teacher and have a bit of fun while doing it.
