Our small group Italian classes (maximum 8 participants) are very informal and amusing and take place exactly where you are lodged! You can choose among beginner or elementary level, intermediate level or advanced level. Your expert teacher will focus on specific topics according to your previous knowledge and your needs, and you will learn in an amusing setting.
The teaching hours can be integrated with very interesting walks to the local street markets, medieval towns or to small local museums.The teacher provides a lot of useful advice in order for the participants to go on learning Italian also after their holidays for a long term study. Teacher is native-speakers with the certified ability to teach Italian as a foreign or second language.
We take into account your current knowledge, the amount of time you have available to devote to the language, and the terminology you are looking for, e.g. ‘survival skills’ for beginners or more specialized terminology (financial, business, medical, technical) for advanced speakers. Intensive training is either on a one-on-one basis or can be arranged for a group of colleagues from the same organization.

It is a very special language program, totally “made to measure”, created exclusively with regard to your requirements and your objectives.
