Cornelia

3.0
“Conveniently located.”
“There weren't enough teachers; sometimes there were 8 or 9 of us in very small classrooms. Because of this, complete beginners were mixed in with B1-level students... It wasn't exactly ideal. Things improved after 2 or 3 days. But there was constantly someone new joining the class for half a day or a full day—usually at the beginner level — which disrupted the flow. The next day, everything was back to normal, until the day after that, when someone else joined our class for a few hours. It was all pretty confusing.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: It was fine as far as that goes – I would have liked a bit more ‘free’ conversation. Just chatting about everyday things, with the teacher correcting me; just having a chat.
Other comments: The letter said I was supposed to be there at 9:00 a.m. on the first day. No one was there. School starts at 9:30 a.m., and it wasn't until 9:20 a.m. that they kindly let me in.

I liked the fact that there were some older students. It was probably also due to the time of year.”

“I really liked everything about the school. The teachers are all great, the groups are small, so there is individualised support and great supervision. The material is tailored to each individual and the atmosphere in the whole school is great. In the afternoons, cultural activities are organised with all the students and you often go out to eat in traditional Sicilian restaurants, where you get to know each other better and can improve your Italian. This is my second time at the language school and I would never want to leave.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Simply great. I learnt a lot and had a lot of fun.
Other comments: Giulia, Federica and Roberta are all wonderful teachers. I got to know all of them in class and would recommend them to anyone

“Unfortunately, my language level was not sufficient for the group I was in, but I still learned a lot. A real beginners' course would have been lovely.”
Insider tip: “Definitely go to the pescheria very early in the morning / enjoy the sun and study in the Giardino Bellini after school / indulge in nature and its diversity in the Orto Botanico / go on one or more excursions and enjoy the wonderful Sicilian way of life.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: I'll keep studying and come back next year

Student reviews about Teresa Homestay
Cornelia
"Teresa is a very warm, hospitable, and pleasant person. She speaks very little English, so she should only host people who can at least communicate the basics in Italian. Very young people probably aren’t the best fit either. My recommendation: 50+ and up. The apartment is large, and so is the private room. There’s a balcony and a “private” bathroom. My conclusion: Teresa is a wonderful host and highly recommended — I felt very comfortable and welcome.
