SIENALINGUE is an International Center of Language,

charming medieval city. The School has been officially authorized

Silvia,
volevo ingraziarle per la Sua attenzione. La mia preoccupazione era di trovare una classe con gli studenti con un livello alto. Devo dire che il livello degli studenti nella classe per questa settimana era ottima. La sfida forse era di farli parlare nella classe. Mi garba trovarmi in una classe in cui e' difficile prendere la parola perche' tutti quanti vorrebbero participare attivamente. Alessandro e Alessandra hanno saputo questa settimana che ho un gusto per esprimermi in italiano. Ma che bella lingua! Dico di imparare il francese per fare penitenza. Per divertirsi cosi' tanto in una lingua dovrebbe essere un peccato e quindi la necessita' di fare penitenza! Ho visto tante belle parole scritte nella sala degli studenti e volevo augurarvi tutti alla scuola in bocca al lupo per trasmettere una vera passione per la lingua e la cultura italian agli studenti. Nel mio caso mi sono accorto che la mia conoscenza della lingua italiana e' veramente il mio cuore per l'Italia, gli italiani che conosco gia' e vorrei sempre conoscere piu' profondamente e tutti gli altri italiani che vorrei conoscere nel futuro.
In bocca al lupo,
Stephen
