And from here, after the lessons, slippers on your feet and beach towel on your shoulders, there are many of you who run to the beach to enjoy the sun of the "Riviera del Corallo"!
A fantastic experience. The courses are very well organized and the quality of the teaching is evident. In a short time I have greatly improved my level of Italian and, above all, I have gained a lot of confidence when speaking. The teachers are friendly and make the classes very enjoyable. In addition, there is a very familiar atmosphere and the city is spectacular. I totally recommend it!
