Personal comments
I really enjoyed learning italian. I just love the ability to communicate so learning another language was wonderfull. I had the opportunity to read a lot, go to theatre, movies... It felt really good broked the language barrier and finally felt tottaly integrated. I eaven had the opportunity to learn the different accents for each region.

Personal comments
The first thing I did when I arrived at Pavia was an italian exam (written and spoken). I was put on a class from the first level. I liked very much my teacher and I had italian lessons during all 6 months. And, as most of the people (locals) did not speak english, I really had to improve my italian! When I left Pavia, I was feeling very confortable with the language.

the fact of italian students being really open encouraged me to constantly improve, even if at the beginning I wasn't exactly fluid, at the end it came more easily speaking in italian than in english or even greek!

having spent the first 6 months in the constant company of fellow english students I made a break to meet more Italians which allowed me to pick up the language quickly, just a question of confidence
