Italian Citizenship B1 — 10 Lessons
Italiano per la cittadinanza — 10 lezioni
In 10 lessons you walk into your B1 citizenship exam knowing exactly what to expect.
For people applying for Italian citizenship who need the B1 language certificate (CILS/CELI B1 cittadinanza).
Your citizenship application depends on a language certificate, and nobody has explained what the exam actually asks you to do.
By lesson 10 you know every part of the B1 citizenship exam — listening, reading, writing and the oral test — you have practised each one under timing, and you sit the exam calmly instead of guessing.
How the program works
A focused preparation program for the B1 language requirement for Italian citizenship (CILS B1 Cittadinanza, CELI B1 or equivalent). We work through the real exam format: the listening tasks, the reading comprehension, the two written texts and the oral interview. Every lesson mixes exam technique with the everyday Italian the examiners expect — plus practice papers you complete between lessons and get corrected.
