Italian A1 Complete Starter Pack
A complete A1 course: 12 taught chapters in teaching order, each opening with what you will be able to do and carrying a mistake box written for speakers of your language, a workbook with a full answer key, Italian audio throughout, flashcards and printable cheat sheets. Dictation and listen-and-complete built on its own recordings, reading passages with comprehension questions, speaking tasks and guided writing — a postcard, a form, a short message — so all four skills are practised, not only grammar. Then two full practice examinations, Forms A and B, on the four-skill shape PLIDA publishes, each with a candidate booklet, an answer booklet, the listening transcript, multi-speaker exam dialogues, marking rubrics for writing and speaking, and three marked sample responses per skill so you can see what each band looks like. A start-here guide with three study plans and a readiness check.
