Immersed in the deep, enchanting blue of the Tyrrhenian Sea, facing the north-eastern coast of Sicily, the Aeolian Islands - home of Aeolus, the Greek God of Wind guarantee an unforgettable experience. On these rocky isles, the contrast between the volcanoes and the sea is strikingly beautiful. Earth, air, fire and water sometimes merge, sometimes clash, creating amazing landscapes. The archipelago of the Aeolian Islands has been a UNESCO World Heritage site since 1999.
Our language tour combines more formal Italian language classes with guided, contextualised use of the language against a backdrop of spectacular peaks, amazing views of the volcano, beautiful sunsets, and a wealth of contrasting colours and landscapes. An ideal cultural trip to combine Italian language learning with carefree, relaxing walks through delightful islands and the more powerful and the unique experience of climbing a volcano. Throughout the trip and during the walks you will be able to interact in Italian with the locals, the tour guides and your course teacher, who will participate in all the activities listed in the programme. This will give you the chance to practice your Italian and receive encouragement, clarification and feedback even outside the classroom. Moreover, our classes take inspiration from and seamlessly blend with the authentic cultural experience that the different locations and tours offer.
Learning won’t stop when classes end but you will be too busy enjoying yourself to notice!
Groups will be formed according to language proficiency levels so that each language course offered in these packets will be tailored to specific language targets.
Our lessons will focus on oral practice and interaction and they have a strong connection with cultural aspects of the places where the course takes place and with our cultural and naturalistic trips. Learning doesn't stop when classes end but you'll be too busy enjoying yourself to notice! :-)
