Italian in Taormina (semi-intensive)
Semi-intensive Italian courses in Taormina (10 lessons per week) are available all year round and you can learn Italian in Taormina for any length of time. Lessons are delivered by qualified native-speaking teachers and based on the use of simple and effective teaching methods with small groups of 6-10 students in a fun and stimulating atmosphere. The primary aim is to improve the student’s communicative ability in all areas of the Italian language (grammar, vocabulary, reading and comprehension), with particular emphasis on conversation. The chosen teaching method favours active participation and interaction in the classroom, promoting the student’s integration, both linguistic and cultural. By the end of the course students will receive a certificate of attendance.
We provide our customers with different accommodation options (private rooms, shared/individual flats, hotels) near the school.
Our Italian language school in Taormina is recognised by the Italian Ministery of Education. The school is located in a historic villa in Taormina, just a few meters from the Greek Theatre. The villa, known as Casa Silva, hosts a wide variety of cultural events, such as book presentations by authors, a cine-forum and, in the summer, painting and sculpture exhibitions. Furthermore, live theatre performances and live concerts (jazz and classical music) are offered. In the garden students can enjoy their leisure time under the lush green trees to study, relax and meet their classmates where they can get coffee, cappuccino, fruit salad, croissants, cakes and typical Sicilian dishes in the cafeteria. All of the teachers are university graduates and many speak at least one or two other languages and nd all have been formally trained to teach Italian as a second/foreign language. The school organizes numerous social activities and excursions, a perfect invitation to discover the Sicilian way of life, its local customs, traditions, food and wines.
