I
NOSTRI STUDENTI The students in our Italian language courses range in age from 18 to 80 years and represent many differenti cultures and backgrounds. We welcome this diversità and encourage cross-cultural exchange and learning whenever possible. We believe this makes for a more interesting and enjoyable experience for everyone. 
While we do host some university students, we have a large number of adult professionals who choose to participate in our program, frequently combining vacation and language learning. Our school of Italian also has many adulti students simply enjoying a well-earned extended stay to immerse themselves completely in the Italian language and culture. Our courses assist in adding the right amount of structure and connection to those pursuing both long and short-term stays in Sicily. Our students come as individuals, couples, and occasionally in groups. We have even offered, on request, special group courses for entire families and even gruppi of children who want to learn Italian. The only requirement is the desire to learn. Our teaching methods, materials, activities, and tasks are generally varied to each group level to be most appropriate to their nature of learning. Of course, many of our students in our Italian language programs come from the European Union, yet many vengono from as far away as Australia, Canada, Japan, the United States and Eastern European countries. 
Each student is asked to complete a questionnaire on the last day of class. This questionario asks students to make detailed comments on the complete program: classes, methods, materials, teachers, school office, activities, and accommodations. We also ask students to make recommendations and to share any other ideas or comments to improve the experience for future visits. We, at Babilonia, values student feedback.
