Italian Verb Drills 2

Italian Verb Drills 2

NOTE: - Location will be a beautiful historic home in downtown Charleston. The address will be sent to all registered students prior to the first class starting.

Verb Drills 2 is a 12 week (1 hour class) workshop not suitable for beginners as it covers some of the more advanced but widely used tenses in Italian. It focuses solely on learning to conjugate verbs in these tenses and learning this took me to yet another level in my quest to learn Italian. I found it amazing for instance how much we use the conditional (I would, could or should)

This is a course that can benefit anybody having already gone through the beginner and verb drills class or who already know a fair amount Italian but not all of the tenses that we will be covering.

Verb Drills 2 covers about the second third of the book “Italian Verb Drills” by Nanni-Tate. If you decide to take this course you will need to have this book. You may find this book locally at Barnes and Noble for about $10.00 or simply purchase it at:
Il Tavolo Italiano Bookstore at:

I would personally recommend this class to anybody who has taken Beginner's 1 and Verb Drills 1 but does not already fully understand the Italian verb system for all of the tenses listed below.

The class will cost $35.00 total for all 12 classes and it is due at the first class you attend. This will not be an enhanced class so there will be no online support. This class has a maximum limit of 20 students.

The schedule is as follows:

Week 2 – Review of Essere, Avere and Past Participles
Week 3 – Trapassato Prossimo tense
