"The course was fun and full of activities"

Eva Šrámková, student from Czech Republic

I had a one-week-course in this school, and was very happy with it. I had four lessons with two other students, which was great, because we had a lot of chances to speak and do all the exercises our teacher Roberta had prepared for us. The lessons were prepared perfectly, enjoyable, fun, so many activities. After only one day, I felt much more confident in speaking. It was exactly what I like when learning Italian. The school was situated very near the centre, near a great bar with amazing coffee, cannolli and also pasta and arancini for very reasonable prices. The school is modern, with nice equipment, a huge terrace with a view of Etna and a lot of sun :). We even had a few lessons there. We played games, learnt a lot of new vocabulary and practised speaking a lot. The only negative for me was, that I had paid an intensive course on a certain level, but there wasn't a class of that level, and so I did not learn many NEW things, but practised the things I already knew really well. Instead of 6 classes a day, I had four and one private lesson. I would appreciate the six lessons I had wanted more. Anyway, I recommend this school, because I enjoyed it and my classmates were friendly and wonderful as well.

"Le lezioni erano eccellenti, varie e interessanti."

Riitta Hietanen, student from Finland

L’insegnante era qualificata, gentile e mi ha incorragiato molto. Le lezioni erano varie e ho avuto parlare tanto. Ho soggiornato presso una bella famiglia, con la quale ho conosciuto anche Catania.
Adesso amo Catania :)
