Spend three weeks immersed in Italian language as you experience the culture of Italy firsthand through three significant themes: gastronomy, fashion, and cinema. Daily classwork will help you refine grammatical skills and learn new vocabulary, while field trips are designed to allow you to practice your conversational skills with Italians in everyday situations. Field trips will include food festivals, film studios, fashion and design museums, cooking classes, artisan workshops, as well as to excursions to cities outside of your host city.
