LANGUAGE COURSES IN CABRAS (SARDINIA)
Quality Swiss schooling in ItalyA mysterious land to be explored:
legendary forests, pristine beaches , crystal-clear seas, recreation and adventure.
A land rich in history:
A history dating back thousands of years, ancient civilisations, different cultures.
A land of ancient culinary tradition:
affluence and quality, recipes of old, famous local wines.
This is the atmosphere that will surround you while attending an intensive course of Italian, English or German. Using the language throughout the day in an target-based and efficient manner will permit you to understand what’s said in the new tongue right away, and to improve your oral and written expression in a short time. You may choose from a study holiday of one, two, three or more weeks at the time of the year that suits you.
We are convinced you will enjoy staying with us, and the language you’ll learn with GLOSSA will “flow” just like the waters of this island’s crystalline rivers.
