About this episode

We’re here with the final episode of Coffee Break Italian Season 3! In the last chapter of “Il tesoro di Montespelonca” Professor Doppi’s motives are revealed: will he keep the treasure to himself or will it share it with the children? You will be able to really put yourself to the test with some advanced grammar points, including verbs in the passato remoto, conditional perfects and if clauses. Watch out for interesting new vocabulary like stivaloni, cenno and intraprendenza and don’t miss out on a special cosina of Dantesque flavour!


If you'd like to take advantage of bonus materials, lesson notes and a translation challenge, you can access the full Coffee Break Italian Season 3 course on the Coffee Break Academy.
