Language school Taormina, Babilonia

The school is located at the heart of the town, in an historical 19th century building, only 10 minutes away from the famous Piazza del Campo. Its terrace offers a splendid view over Naxos Bay and Mount Etna as well as over the town of Taormina. The classes (in small groups or one-to-one) take place in air-conditioned classrooms. The school offers free Internet and WiFi access and a large study room with a library, TV and audio-visual material. During breaks and after classes, students can go to relax and chat with their new friends in the student lounge. The learning of the language is based around oral and written expression. One of the assets of the school is that it offers optional themed classes, such as courses on cuisine & gastronomy, Sicilian arts and sports, which are run in parallel with the language courses.

Host family
Students are provided with a single room with breakfast, half board or full board provided. It's the ideal option for those who wish to immerse themselves in the Sicilian culture from the beginning to the end of their stay!
