This week students of Italian and local folks attended a lecture entirely in Italian delivered by Elisa Pianges from Babilonia, Centro di Studi Italiani in Taormina, Italy. Elisa’s love and knowledge of photography, cinema, and Sicilian culture –coupled with her obvious gift as a language teacher–made for a particularly engaging and enriching presentation. After the lecture, students had the opportunity to ask questions about the upcoming full immersion summer travel course in Taormina.
