As every year, we were once again visited by students from the I.S.I.T.P.S., Istituto Statale di Istruzione Tecnica Professionale e Scientifica ‘Einaudi’, from Italy who come to Madrid with their teachers Mikaela Mercanti and Domitilla Nucci, as part of a programme of language immersion groups in Madrid. Spanish course and internship in Spanish companies in various sectors.
This year the students have enjoyed Spanish classes 3 days a week combined with cultural activities and internships in companies in Madrid, such as Casa Patas or the hotel group Vinotium.
Thank you for coming one more year to TANDEM MADRID and see you next year!

Testimony of student Lucrezia Rastelli
Gentlemen:
First of all I wanted to thank you for the availability and everything you did for us. It has been an unforgettable experience that has changed me a lot. I have discovered a new world, that of the city, and also new cultures and traditions. There in Madrid there is a more open mentality, with people who give respect and don’t judge. It is a city as big as it is safe and this surprised me.
In the classes I have learnt new terms, dishes and everything that is correct to say when working as a waitress, because the first thing we have to do is to establish contact with the client and understand what he/she wants (not only at the level of food). The teachers have always been kind, curious and helpful.
In three weeks I have overcome much of my shyness and this was one of my main goals.
Many thanks again to all of you.
Yours faithfully
Lucrezia Rastelli
