The course has only been running since 11th January - 7 weeks therefore it rather difficult after such a short period of time 7 x 90 minutes = 56 hours to give a realistic assessment of the course. Everyone has there own style and preference of learning. This is my first adult foreign language course therefore I have nothing to compare the quality and standard of the class and teaching skills against. Personally I would have preferred to have learned Italian words first before getting into the grammatical aspect of the language. Fortunately I decided to also learn online with Duolingo which has been extremely helpful. Being taught about articles and verbs before knowing the what the Italian words mean makes it quite difficult to grasp certain aspects especially as the in-person class in only 90 minutes per week.
A few in the class are taking private lessons in addition, to get a grip on what we are doing in class.Which strikes me ,that if that is necessary then the nature of what we do in class and pace needs review to ensure there is a more solid understanding be fore we move on.
I am not computer literate so struggle with zoom and retrieving the online work materials
