Civitanova Marche at night
Located only 500m from the Adriatic coast, surrounded by picturesque hills with their medieval borghi, with the fascinating view of the Sibillini Mounts in the background, the Civitas Italia invites all of you to a most interesting journey into the Italian language and the discovery of the real Italy – the one that you cannot see from the window of a tourist coach.
The school is situated in Civitanova Marche, one of the most beautiful and enjoyable sea resorts on the Adriatic coast in the Marche – a region that is rightfully considered the quintessence of Italy's landscape diversity, cultural and artistic treasures as well as food and wine richness.
The Civitas Italia teaching method is based on the communicative approach and on real needs of students. The goal is to make them confident when using Italian in real life situations, both formal and informal.
The students are guided in their learning process by academically trained teachers with long experience in teaching Italian as a foreign language. The staff members do their best to create a calm, friendly and creative atmosphere that encourages the dialogue between different cultures and closer acquaintance and communication in a group.
The students are given every possibility to practice all the four linguistic abilities – listening, speaking, reading and writing. Special attention is paid to the oral practice to make students improve the ability to express themselves and communicate successfully in Italian from the very start.
Besides language lessons, the Civitas Italia provides a rich programme of afternoon activities, including Italian culture lessons that acquaint with the history and geography of Italy, its traditions and famous people; viewing Italian films in original with subtitles; guided tours to discover the most interesting and beautiful attractions of the Marche Region.
In addition, the town of Civitanova Marche itself presents a lot of opportunities for interesting pastime: beautiful beaches (awarded with the Blue Flag for the quality of water and services), modern bars and restaurants, popular discos, shops of the most famous brands, theatre and dance performances, concerts, sports events and many others.
