There are people for whom time is at a premium so they want to learn Italian as quickly as possible. But there are also people who have the time and the inclination to learn at a slower rate. They see the language as a means of socializing, making new friends and acquaintances in the process of learning it. We conceived this course with them in mind. "Senior 60 and Over" is a course for students who are over 60 and who prefer the company of their peers in lessons that move at a more relaxed pace. After class, we propose that you pass the afternoon together on a walk or an excursion. We'll organize everything so you won't even have to bring your car.
The course runs for two weeks and comprises 30 hours of lessons (three hours every morning with a break of 30 minutes), an aperitif to welcome you, a goodbye lunch, and a package of excursions - two country walks, a wine tasting with collation, a guided tour of Cortona and a guided tour of Siena on Saturday. Minimum number of participants is six. The course offers two levels: intermediate and advanced. An intermediate-level knowledge of Italian is required in order to participate.
