I am posting this on behalf of the English International School in Modica.
Since I last wrote about the School's services, we have received many enquiries regarding our prices, the cost of accommodation, transport and so on. I hope that the following information will be helpful:
ITALIAN COURSES FOR SPEAKERS OF OTHER LANGUAGES
The School offers individual, semi-individual [2 students] and group courses and can tailor a course to your needs. All teachers are mother tongue.
We organise our courses according to the level of students' knowledge of Italian: elementary, intermediate or advanced.
Courses last a minimum of one week (Monday to Friday) but we can extend the number of weeks at students' request.
Course structure
Semi-standard [2 hours per day]
Standard [4 hours per day]
Intensive [6 hours per day]
We can also organise personalised courses for students enrolling for individual lessons: students can decide, with the teacher, how many hours and how many days of tuition they require during the week. Students who enrol for semi-individual or group courses can also request some individual lessons to clarify certain points or for extra practice.
Lesson content
Conversation
Grammar
Lexis
Idioms
Analysis and comprehension of descriptive, narrative and poetic texts where appropriate.
Italian and Sicilian traditions and customs.
Students will also be able to see some Italian films and plays.
On request we will organise excursions so that students can see some of the architectural and natural wonders of Sicily, such as the Baroque heritage of the Val di Noto, the nature reserve at Vendicari, Greek monuments at Syracuse and Agrigento and those of the Arab-Norman period in Palermo.

My cousin learned Italian in Sicily! Sje says it was great.
Thanks, RH. That's good to know.
All very well laid out Welshcakes.
However a website would be a great asset I'm sure.
It is being done, jmb.
Did I tell you: I'm thinking of getting TEFL/etc and training as an English teacher myself!!
Actually could you do me a favour and tell me what qualifications are best, both for teaching English IN the UK ++ abroad... I'd be ever so grateful... (e.g. I've heard Cambridge do some good certificates...)
Hi, Gleds. You'd be good at that. I would say Cambridge CELTA for both. xx
