Combined Course
Babilonia

Combined Course (Taormina in Italy)

This program combines group language courses in the morning that encourage students to interact and help a student to improve practical communication skills. The individual language classes in the afternoon allow you to concentrate on your areas of weakness and on things that interest you personally.

BABILONIA is the perfect school if your goal is to develop your communication skill, both oral and written.
The program has been developed from a communicative based approach and focuses on the four language abilities : listening, speaking, reading, writing.
Most of the course are divided into two parts : language analisys session followed by communicative activities session.
Plus, progress is monitored and all teachers meet weekly to faciliate organization and ensure proper student placement.
