Ciao

Parliamo italiano!

 

 

Practise and improve your Italian
by joining the
Bradford Italian Circle.

We have a wide range of interactive activities, where using and conversing in Italian are the primary aims.

Our group numbers are ideal for allowing everyone the opportunity to speak and express themselves in Italian.

We have native speakers, who can support our technical development.

Musical evenings and bi-annual dining events are also included in our events programme.

We would love you to come and join us !

This is not an Italian course nor do we give Italian lessons as such. Learning and improvement comes naturally as week by week you encounter the spoken language in conversation in a social setting or from entertaining guest speakers.

Many find this style of learning more effective and far more enjoyable than a formal Italian course or lessons.

É interessante occupare bene il tempo libero, incontrare diversa gente nuova, apprendere cose nuove sui costumi, tradizioni, cibo… Ne vale veramente la pena.

Ti aspettiamo!

The Circle is a rich and enjoyable environment for enhancing language.

I particularly like its friendly, supportive, patient and inclusive atmosphere.

I enjoy going to the group.

It helps me to practice understanding and speaking Italian in an informal atmosphere while learning about many aspects of life in Italy.

We learn together, a light-hearted bunch of friendly people.

Some Common Questions:

When & where do you meet?

The Italian Circle meets every week on either Tuesday evening from 7.30 to 9pm or Thursday afternoon from 1.30 to 3 p.m.  Refreshments are available as you arrive. Please email bradfordlanguagecircle@gmail.com for the latest programme.

Meet at:

10 Eldon Place, Manningham Lane, Bradford, West Yorkshire. BD1 3AZ.

Bradford Circle for Foreign Languages

10 Eldon Place, Manningham Lane,

Bradford, West Yorkshire. BD1 3AZ.

Hope to see you soon!

My Italian is very basic can I still join?

Absolutely! We welcome and cater for all abilities. The aim is to maintain and develop language skills. Some people prefer to just listen until they are confident enough to join in… that is absolutely fine. Mistakes and getting it wrong is how we improve most.

Do I have to commit to every week?

Come as often or as little as you wish.

Will I be the only newcomer?

We constantly welcome new members and make sure they settle in. The atmosphere is very informal.

I don't live near Bradford, can I still come?

Of course. We think it’s worth travelling for. The Bradford Circle For Foreign Languages is the only group of it’s kind in the UK. We have been featured on TV and members travel from far and wide (even Lancashire) and from all across West Yorkshire to take advantage of the Circle’s unique benefits.
