Holidays and Culture
The Washington Academy of Languages is pleased to announce that we not only offer quality language instruction, but cultural seminars as well!
Recently, we hosted a holiday class centered around Italian culture - Le Feste in Italia, and we have one coming up focusing on the holiday cultures of Spanish-speaking countries - Las Fiestas de Espanol. The cultural seminars are filled with lively conversation, holiday samplings and excitement.
Some comments from attendees:
“The workshop was great! [The instructor was] a wonderful facilitator and she created a learning environment that was fantastic.”
“I absolutely adored Le Feste…I cornetti e panforte sono stati deliciosi; il cappuccino un regalo vero! Grazie mille! Spero [che] WAL offerta la classe “Le Feste” ancora. E stato molto divertimente!”
“Although I don’t speak Italian and know few words learned on my trip in September, I enjoyed Le Feste! I was able to pretty much understand what [the instructor] was talking about and learned a lot about how the Italians celebrate the holidays.”
Look for upcoming cultural events throughout the 2009 calendar year at WAL!
