Learning a language requires effort and practice, so every day the course was filled with numerous exercises and activities.\u00a0<br \/>They covered several grammar topics, including a review of tenses, the use of phrasal verbs and adverbs. Each lesson was based on everyday situations, such as organizing daily tasks, discussing routine activities, hours and schedules, and hobbies. They also explored topics like the importance of learning a foreign language, travel, and future planning. To enhance effective learning, we conducted formative assessments and activities using games, quizzes, readings, real-life simulations, and various other methods.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>\n<div style=\"height: 20px; overflow: hidden;\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"imageGallery\" id=\"104708397832630505-gallery\" style=\"line-height: 0px; padding: 0; margin: 0\">\n<div id=\"104708397832630505-imageContainer0\" style=\"float:left;width:49.95%;margin:0;\">\n<div id=\"104708397832630505-insideImageContainer0\" style=\"position:relative;margin:5px;\">\n<div class=\"galleryImageHolder\" style=\"position:relative; width:100%; padding:0 0 75%;overflow:hidden;\">\n<div class=\"galleryInnerImageHolder\"><a href=\"..\/uploads\/6\/5\/6\/3\/65630323\/img-20250606-132116_orig.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[gallery104708397832630505]\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div id=\"104708397832630505-imageContainer1\" style=\"float:left;width:49.95%;margin:0;\">\n<div id=\"104708397832630505-insideImageContainer1\" style=\"position:relative;margin:5px;\">\n<div class=\"galleryImageHolder\" style=\"position:relative; width:100%; padding:0 0 75%;overflow:hidden;\">\n<div class=\"galleryInnerImageHolder\"><a href=\"..\/uploads\/6\/5\/6\/3\/65630323\/img-20250602-104232_orig.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[gallery104708397832630505]\"><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p><span style=\"display: block; clear: both; height: 0px; overflow: hidden;\"><\/span>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"height: 20px; overflow: hidden;\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"paragraph\">\u200bThanks to our team, the participants also had the opportunity to enjoy the city of Palermo with two sightseeing tours of the city center, as well as dinners and lunches in typical Sicilian restaurants.<br \/>The participants enthusiastically embraced all the speaking challenges with courage. During breaks, they seized every opportunity to converse with fellow participants in English, exchanging best practices and insights about their schools and countries.
