Scuola di italiano
Semester 2 is underway. Francesca's classes began in June and are now having a break because Francesca is in Italy, Rosa's and Lisa's classes started last week and Brunella's classes began this week. Maria's classes resume in mid July and Roberto's class starts on the 23rd. Enrolments have been steady with some more expected in the next week or two. Thanks to everyone who has enrolled so far.
This semester we have two new absolute beginners classes on Thursdays: a lunchtime class and an evening class. Brunellla will be teaching these classes and we welcome the 13 students who have enrolled for them. There are still some spaces available in both classes. Information about how to enroll is available here: https://www.dantechch.com/enrol-new.html
