Unique features

Among its many features, we would like to draw your attention to a particular resource that sets DAVVERO apart from other programs.

 

Testi mappati

These texts have been transformed into “roadmaps” for students with the following three elements highlighted and color-coded:

• Frequently-used word combinations and phrases

• Common connectors and discourse markers

• Structures that contain verbs, nouns, and adjectives with prepositions

By using this feature, students can exercise the recognition, acquisition and production of a linguistic repertoire that goes beyond simple words, allowing them to communicate with greater fluency and accuracy from the very beginning.

Audiolettura

These texts are read aloud by Italian speakers. This feature allows students to listen to the text while they read along, listen after they have read the text themselves, or practice and check their own Italian pronunciation, among many other possibilities.
