Complete beginner
EEC Online Italian A1 course is ₹7,500 per month (50% off in 2026). The fee is charged monthly, not once — it covers a month of daily live Zoom classes at 9:00 PM – 10:00 PM IST (Mon-Fri), the CEFR A1 syllabus with CELI / CILS A1 exam preparation, digital study material, practice tests and free Italy study counselling. GST included.
One evening slot — 9:00 PM to 10:00 PM IST, Mon-Fri on Zoom
A1 is not a formality. It is the level at which Italy stops being a place you need translated for you.
Italian public universities charge low tuition and most Bachelor's programmes are taught in Italian. A1 is where the ladder to the B1/B2 level those courses ask for begins, and it is what makes your Universitaly pre-enrolment and consulate interview go smoothly.
Declaration of Value, codice fiscale, permesso di soggiorno, questura appointments — the Italian student-visa trail is paperwork in Italian. A1 turns those forms from guesswork into something you can read.
Italian is the language of design, fashion, food, automotive engineering and art restoration. For hospitality, luxury retail and cruise-line roles it is a hiring filter, not a nice-to-have.
A1 is the first rung of CELI (Università per Stranieri di Perugia), CILS (Siena) and PLIDA (Società Dante Alighieri). All three are recognised by Italian universities and by the consulate.
Eight weeks of daily classes covers the full CEFR A1 descriptor set. Fees are billed ₹7,500/month, so this is normally two monthly payments.
One hour every day, 9:00 PM – 10:00 PM IST, Mon-Fri — a real EEC teacher, not a recording.
Small enough that you speak in every single class. Speaking is the skill A1 candidates lose marks on.
EEC's own A1 workbook, grammar sheets and vocabulary lists, mapped week by week to the syllabus above.
CELI / CILS A1 format practice papers with written feedback on your writing and speaking.
Ask in Italian or in English — your teacher answers in the same session, not in a ticket queue.
Sit with an EEC counsellor about Universitaly, Declaration of Value and intake planning. Included, at any of our 26 branches or online.

The Italian A1 online course costs ₹7,500 per month after a 50% discount (list price ₹15,000 per month). This is a MONTHLY fee, not a one-time course fee — you pay for one month of daily live classes at a time and renew only if you continue. GST is included and there are no hidden charges. Study material, practice tests and Italy study counselling are included in the monthly fee.
Italian A1 runs one live batch: 9:00 PM – 10:00 PM IST, Mon-Fri, on Zoom. That is one hour of live class every weekday with a real EEC teacher — roughly 22 live hours per month. Classes are live, not recorded lectures, so you can ask questions and speak during the session.
Italian A1 is the beginner level of the Common European Framework of Reference (CEFR). At A1 you can introduce yourself, handle everyday exchanges — shopping, directions, ordering food — and read simple forms and notices. The course is built for complete beginners with zero prior Italian: students planning to study in Italy, professionals in hospitality, fashion, design or cruise lines, and anyone starting the language from scratch.
Most EEC students clear A1 in about two months of daily one-hour classes (roughly 42 to 46 contact hours). Because fees are billed ₹7,500/month, that is normally two monthly payments. The eight-week syllabus covers pronunciation, present tense, common irregular verbs, prepositions, passato prossimo, and full A1 exam technique.
Yes. Whenever an Italian demo class is on the schedule, a 'Book Free Demo Class' button appears at the top of this page — enter your name, phone and email and the join link is issued to you immediately on the page and emailed to you. There is no callback queue and no counsellor gate, and the link opens about four minutes before the class starts. If the button is not showing, the next demo batch is still being scheduled: send an enquiry from the form below and our team will share the date.
EEC teaches to the CEFR A1 descriptors and drills the format used by the three recognised Italian certifications: CELI (Università per Stranieri di Perugia), CILS (Università per Stranieri di Siena) and PLIDA (Società Dante Alighieri). All three are accepted by Italian universities and by the Italian consulate. Your teacher will help you pick the one that matches your intake and test-centre availability.
It depends on the programme. Bachelor's degrees at Italian public universities are largely taught in Italian and typically ask for B1 or B2. Many Master's programmes are in English, but the visa and residence-permit trail — Universitaly pre-enrolment, Declaration of Value, codice fiscale, permesso di soggiorno, questura appointments — is conducted in Italian. A1 is the starting level and makes both the paperwork and the consulate interview considerably easier.
Italian A1 is taught live online on Zoom, so students in any Indian city can join the 9:00 PM – 10:00 PM IST batch. EEC has 26 branches across 12 Gujarat cities for counselling, document work and Italy study-abroad guidance, and the free Italy counselling session included with the course can be taken at a branch or over Zoom.
Yes — the course assumes zero prior Italian. Week one starts with the alphabet, the sounds Indian learners find hardest (gl, gn, sc, double consonants), and greetings. Batches are kept small so every student speaks in every class, which is where beginners actually make progress.
