And if for communicating with the older English was quite enough for instructors, in teaching kids the language barrier arose.
Therefore, starting from October 5 in Vigo di Fassa, one of the main resorts of Valle di Fassa, for representatives of the tourism industry will be opened a special language program, where will be taught basics of Russian. Courses will be held until November 4.
