During the hours when students are not busy attending classes for their Italian course in Italy, the Italian language school in Sicily would like to give all its Italian language students the opportunity to not only learn Italian, but also explore Sicily and the surrounding area. So, in addition to the Italian courses at the school, the Italian language school in Sicily offers three to four activities every week. These activities may include, for example, wine tasting, group evening meals, boat trips, sightseeing and movie nights.

The Italian language school in Sicily wants to ensure that there are plenty of things for you to do even once the classes of your Italian course are over for the week.

The Italian language school in Sicily is always keen to encourage all its students to take part in as many activities as possible, as these provide the perfect opportunity to learn Italian even when you are not attending classes for your Italian course.
