TEFL Course Rome

‘The Eternal City’ as it’s known, is breathtaking. You can inundate your senses with leisurely strolls down cobblestone streets or by sitting in one of Italy’s famous piazzas (city squares), from the thrill of touring sites that have witnessed a turbulent past to a simple afternoon spent relaxing with a cooling portion of gelato (Italian ice cream), you’ll love Rome.

Rome is Italy’s capital, as well as the country’s largest and most populous city. It’s cosmopolitan as well as modern. It’s one of the few cities that escaped the bombing raids of WWII, so centuries-old buildings and architecture remain unscathed. It has retained its Renaissance and baroque character as well. The city center of Rome is rightfully listed as a World Heritage Site by UNESCO.

Rome houses the Coliseum, the largest amphitheater built during the Roman Empire. It is also home to countless rare monuments including the Pantheon, the Catacombs of Rome, the Circus Maximus, as well as the Bocca della Verita and much, much more.

Rome hosts many festivals as well. Exhibitions, concerts and other shows take place throughout the year and themes include everything from fashion and modern art to theater, music and dance from all over Europe.
