Each group is taught by two teachers in order to give students more variation and stimulation.
Teachers use the method of only communicating in Italian which means you will be able to learn and express yourself quickly.
Groups are kept small to ensure every student has the chance to speak and at Linguaviva particular emphasis is placed on developing speaking and writing skills.
