Sorrento Lingue Centro Linguistico Internazionale



Director

 

Cristiana Panicco DirectorBorn and raised in Turin, I have lived in England and Germany and I speak English, French and German. Despite the fact that I have traveled extensively and have experienced a great deal, I have always been fascinated by Southern Italy. Its culture, traditions and the sheer beauty of its landscape have drawn me back ever since I first visited the unspoiled, typically Italian little town of Sorrento. As soon as I arrived in Sorrento, I felt as if I had just awoken from a long, deep sleep.  
Sorrento was one of the most charming and distinctive towns I had ever seen. Its unique location was a deciding factor in my decision to open a school for teaching Italian to foreigners, and getting something of my love for this unique, spectacular land to rub off on them.  

The Sorrento Lingue Italian Language School is currently in its tenth year of activity. Over the years, my aims have expanded somewhat; the school has, in fact, become an international community where Italian and foreign students of all ages and from all corners of the globe can come together to exchange ideas, cultures and projects.  
Apart from Italian courses for foreigners, the Institute now offers foreign language courses for foreigners who want to refine their personal knowledge and culture.
We are also working to set up collaborative relationships with foreign universities in order expand upon different types of programs and projects.
Despite the uncertain political and economic outlook, we fully intend to offer students, teachers and universities a truly professional service in international education and in setting up language-learning programs.
