Whatever your do, you must return to the hostel for dinner. Naturally, you will also have to set some time aside to study. Italian 201 in Arezzo is an intensive version of what is already a fairly intensive course. We cover 14 weeks' worth of material in six. Generally, however, since the students are not enrolled in other courses, they have no trouble keeping up with the material.
Students often study together and help one another master the material.
The week ends Thursday after lunch, at which time you are free to leave town for a few days or stay in Arezzo if you prefer. Although this sum does not pay for luxury accommodations, it does go a long way toward defraying your weekend expenses. Classes begin again on Sunday afternoon, so you must return for lunch on Sunday. You will have a great deal of contact with Italians. Classes are held in the morning, and the rest of the time students are encouraged to venture out on their own.
