At the Domus Aurea
Centre,
it is our belief that a balance must be found between language and civilization,
and while language study is our primary concern, we do not take the cultural
aspect associated with learning about Italy lightly.
Our students can take part in two activities a week free of charge: a guided
tour of the city and a film in Italian. In addition to the cultural aspect,
which is always behind the choice of material used, the aim is also to
learn something.
These two out-of-class activities help our students initiate comprehension
and the ability to express themselves in Italian. That is why we urge our
students use the lending library and ask for the list of books and films
that are available in the secretary’s office.
In addition, to encourage complete integration, the school organizes
conversation exchanges with native speakers, parties and conferences;
and, especially in the summer months, the students are invited to participate
in the extraordinary evenings in the open air to discover the “estate
romana”, literally Roman Summer, a series of concerts, film festivals
and “happenings” that takes place every summer in the Eternal
City.
