The unique Eurolingua One-to-One Homestay Programme will ensure that you make maximum progress in the shortest possible time, whatever your starting level, beginner to advanced. You live full-board in the home of your fully-qualified foreign language tutor, receiving 4 hours per day (20 hours per week) of individual language tuition, specifically adapted to your own level, learning pace and interests, whether for business or pleasure!! The rest of the time you benefit from lots of conversational practice by participating in the usual everyday family activities of your personal tutor and family and by meeting people in the local community. You may, of course, have as much independent time as you wish. You acquire an authentic accent, total confidence and real fluency in the language.

Make spectacular progress in the shortest possible time. Individual tuition adapted to your own requirements, full-board accommodation (private room, all meals), local excursions and lots of fun!

Highlights: A luxury apartment in the centre of Pescara on the Adriatic Coast, close to the beach, train station, bus station, main square, tourist port, cathedrals, stores, cinemas, universities, libraries, supermarkets, stadium, malls, gymnasiums, hospitals, markets, internet cafes, bars, restaurants etc. Everything is within walking distance and it is a pleasure to walk. For instance, it is only 20 minutes walk to the beach. Pescara is a very new and lively city and, thanks to the university and beach, is well known as a tourist centre. Located opposite Rome, along the shores of the Adriatc sea, it is a very enjoyable and pleasant town. I am sure that, besides learning Italian, you will have a positive and unforgettable life experience. My brand new apartament (95m²) is located on the first floor of a small building and comprises: two bedrooms, a big living room, kitchen, WC, three balconies, a nice garden and one boxroom. I have also got a huge cellar as well as a garage downstairs. The apartment benefits from air conditioning system and a wonderful wall parquet on the floor. It is very well furnished in a modern style, clean, cozy and comfortable!! NB: all the furniture is completely new! Only 7 kms from Pescara Airport with daily flights to and from Frankfurt, London, Rome, Milan and other European cities.

Excursions and Local Attractions
National Park of Abruzzo, typical regional towns, villages and mountains in the region such as Scanno, with its well-known lake, Pescocostanzo, Roccaraso Citta' Sant' Angelo, Sulmona which is very well known as one of the oldest cities in Italy as well as for being Ovidio's native country. If the student likes history and culture, I will take him to Gabriele D'annunzio's house which is very close to my place. He is one of the most famous Italian poets, an important part of Italian literature and one of the most prestigious Italian men ever. I will also take the student to Rome (2 hours), L'Aquila which is the capital of my region, Vasto. In any event, Pescara is a very beautiful city and there are so many things to see, do and visit. There are many clubs, bars, restaurants, a very clear sea and a huge and marvellous beach to enjoy.
