Talking and tasting
In order to bring the student into closer contact with Italian reality and everyday life, Reggio Lingua conducts a range of educational activities away from the classroom.
Carried out under the guidance of a tutor, these activities encourage students to use their Italian in a practical satisfying manner by learning new words and linguistic structures to be put immediately into practice in day-to-day situations. Participants soon become familiar with the artistic heritage and cultural traditions of Italy and together explore the most characteristic places, and the way of life, of the city they are staying in.
The student is invited to spend time with the tutor, speaking Italian and sampling traditional products.
The experience is held on a nearby farm or producers and includes demonstrations of local production methods and the opportunity to taste specialities. The afternoon can be spent at any of the following places:
Visit to a dairy
Visit to a vinegar cellar
Visit to a ham producing plant
Visit to a wine cellar
Visit to a farm
