Quality teaching in a friendly, informal, and stimulating atmosphere and personal attention to the students' needs and requirements on the part of the entire staff are today the school's distinctive mark. Culturforum is located in the very heart of historic Cefalù, a small medieval town with a typical Mediterranean atmosphere on the northern coast of Sicily: the impressive cultural heritage, the sea, the unspoilt natural environment, the hospitality of the people make Cefalù the ideal place where to learn Italian and the history and culture of Italy. Along with the language courses the school organises a range of excursions that will take you off the beaten track to allow you to discover the hidden treasures of Sicily, a region with some 6000 years of history. Many different cultures flourished on the island, leaving behind a trail of impressive monuments, buildings and works of art which still today inspire wonder and admiration. The school also organises cultural seminars, social and leisure activities and can provide accommodation in comfortable apartments, hotels or private lodgings.
