TEACHING METHOD
IACE’s classes are modeled on the communicative approach, a learner-centered method which aims at giving students the skills to be able to communicate under various circumstances. Grammar elements are analyzed with an inductive method, which allows students to learn by grasping concepts through a bottom-up process.
Teaching Materials
Tuition includes the textbook Dieci B1 by Alma Edizioni (digital for online classes and hard copy for in-person classes) and all the teaching materials provided by the teacher.
