Description

Learn Italian Language in Italy:
Wide sandy beaches line the coast of this traditional Italian town on the Tuscany Riviera (or Versilia), while a tall mountain serves as a dramatic backdrop. Viareggio gives visitors an authentic feel while still providing the wide sandy beaches and excellent nightlife of a resort town. The town is small enough to be easily walkable and it is easy to meet the friendly locals. A visit to Viareggio means an opportunity to sample the fresh seafood specialties and visit the nearby historical towns of Florence, Pisa, Pietrasanta and more.

School Facilities: Campus located in the center of Viareggio, within walking distance from the beach. There is a nice terrace, a gazebo and a small garden. The school is next to a Pine forest where you can go jogging, rent a bicycle or play tennis. The whole town is within walking distance of the school. Capacity is 120/day.

Participants: Most students are university students, professionals and independent travelers. Average age is 25. More young students in the summer.

Accreditation Memberships: Italian Ministry of Education, University and Research, ASILS, AIL, ELITE

AmeriSpan Study Abroad's Mission Statement

Our mantra is "Every Language, Every Culture, Everywhere." AmeriSpan Study Abroad has over 15 years experience and over 30,000 past participants. Our staff has three passions: language, culture, and travel. Individually and as a group, we have accumulated experiences and knowledge related to these passions. AmeriSpan's staff has traveled to more than 65 countries, every continent except Antarctica, speak 10 languages, and we are happy to share this enormous amount of relevant knowledge with you. Every staff member has studied and/or lived abroad for extended periods of time. We are neither a language school nor a travel agent, we're a hybrid of the two: a language travel organization. AmeriSpan has evaluated hundreds of schools, host families and destinations to determine which programs to offer, and our independence allows us to give you unbiased evaluations of these programs. Our pledge to our participants is to make going abroad 'worry-free'. There is no risk in choosing an AmeriSpan program because you'll get the best program, best price and can cancel for any reason and get a full refund on every dollar we have received for your program.
