Norwich

A city in East Anglia, Norwich has a population approaching 130,000. Sometimes portrayed humorously in the media as a remote, undistinguished part of the UK as a result of its geographical isolation and its comparatively low population of ethnic minorities, Norwich in fact has plenty lot to offer. It has a rich history of chocolate manufacture; along with a wealth of historical architecture, but much of this was somewhat cut short by the Second World War. In 2006 Norwich was voted the "greenest" city in the UK.

 

Italian Testimonials

"This is just a quick note to say thank you for arranging our Italian classes. We really enjoyed them and we liked Maria very much. We are interested in having some more lessons, perhaps once a week now. We'd like them to focus on conversation so that we can practise what we've learned so far."
