The Italian lessons combine communication and grammar in an ideal combination and, at all levels, you will always use the Italian language in class. Plenty of space will be dedicated to expanding your vocabulary in order to speak Italian more fluently. If you are a beginner, you will start learning Italian from the basics and you will see progress already after the first weeks. If you already have knowledge of the language, the contents will be suited to the level of your course, from A1 to C2.
To complete each level you will need on average 6 weeks, but you may need more time for the higher levels. The cooking lessons will allow you to learn the basics of Italian dishes, refine your cooking skills, and discover both traditional regional recipes and the new trends of Italian cuisine.
For the language course you will be placed in a group of up to 10 people in a comfortable and relaxing environment. In the afternoon you will have two cooking lessons in a cooking school, where you will have fun under the guidance of expert chefs.
We will provide you with the textbook and all useful materials, including the recipes of the dishes you will cook. The teacher will use an iPad and after each lesson you will receive a PDF with the contents of the lesson itself. At the end of the course you will have a certificate of attendance.
In the afternoon or during the weekend, if you wish, you will be able to participate in our activities, 3 per week, organized and led by the school’s teachers.
