Student opinions about OrbitLingua, Orbetello
Questions and answers about OrbitLingua
- I would like to know if this junior programme would be suitable for my grandson who will be 15 in July, he would start as an almost beginner. What do you recommend and for how long and if there was a possibility of staying with family.“The Junior programme offered by the school is undoubtedly very good and through various activities, excursions and more, it stimulates interaction among the children encouraging a continuous exchange and thus the gradual and non-stressful learning of the basics of Italian. To get the maximum benefit from the programme I recommend at least 4 weeks but even 2 weeks may be sufficient to start gradually with language learning.
The course takes place with fixed dates and has a minimum duration of 2 weeks, accessible to all levels from beginner (A1) to Advanced (C2), accommodation is always with a family as it is mandatory for minors, as well as ensuring constant supervision of the children.”Antonio Zoppo, LanguageCourse.Net - Dec 07, 2022
