The number of level of knowledge is 6 and completion of a 4-week course does not guarantee advancement to the next level. In the rare event that a student is the only one for a particular level after getting his placement test, tuition fee will be converted to private one-to-one lessons, reducing by 50% (ex: 2 individual lessons instead of 4 group lessons a day). In the event that there are only 2 or 3 students for a particular level, tuition fee will be reduced by 25% (ex: 3 semi- individual lessons instead of 4 group lessons a day), given the more intense nature of a small class size. It is possible to change the course after it has begun, but only with a more intensive course and not the opposite, respecting all the whole period of attendance previously booked. If a student does not attend or wants to shorten his/her course after the course has begun, lessons subsequently lost can not be made up and tuition fees will not be refunded. 1.b. Teacher Training Courses run Monday through Friday except during official Italian public holidays with a minimum number of 4 participants.
