While they sometimes get a bad reputation, the great white shark is an extremely beautiful animal that is beloved by many. However, the future of these incredible creatures is in jeopardy. In South Africa, it is believed that the great white is on its way to extinction as the population estimates were drastically off. It is now estimated that there are around 350-520 sharks in the South African coastal area which is around half the size that researchers thought the population would be. Human interference; including shark nets used to protect swimmers, persons killing for sport or pollution is to blame for how endangered these animals are.

What Our Students Are Saying

“The Language Learning Institute is the only venue which teaches more than just conversational Italian, other than enrolling in a college course. I had tried a few Italian language classes from other continuing education places but it was always the same: the class was dominated by those planning a trip to Italy and wanting to have travel vocabulary and phrases under their belts.

The Language Learning Institute teaches Italian as a true language-you learn by listening to Italian, speaking it, reading it and writing it. We have a text book and a workbook, and are tackling all the basics of a language-alphabet, grammar, idioms, the way the Italians think. The price is reasonable, the pace is great for working people, and the staff is extremely knowledgeable.”
