Milan, situated in the north of Italy, is not only the country's economic engine but also the world's capital of fashion and design. There are cultural and architectural sites like the fantastic Duomo -the famous Gothic cathedral. Milan can meet any taste, offering a wide variety of entertainment, from sophisticated restaurants to fashionable bars, from opera to great nightclubs. Places like Venice, Florence, and the Lakes are all easily reachable.
At our school we are keen to help you achieve your language ambitions. There are many reasons that you may want to learn Italian. The total immersion itself is a sure way to improve your language rapidly. By providing you with a full range of programs and supplying plenty of possible destinations, we are sure that we can help you progress your language and give you a memorable experience.
* Italian Courses Information: we have tried to make choosing your course and destination relatively easy by not including every course in every one of our language schools. Using our experience we are confident that we are offering courses at the top Italian language centers in Italy. You can find the following types of courses to learn Italian in Italy:
- Survival Italian – Italian language courses for people with limited if any knowledge of the language.
- General intensive Italian: The most popular group courses covering everyday use of the language for people with varying knowledge of the Italian language. Students will be tested to find out their level on the first day of their course. Ideal for people with a “rusty” level of Italian, or those who have just completed an Italian Evening class course.
- Italian for work: Italian language courses for those who need the language for business or for their work. Our school provide a range of semi to more intensive Italian programs, including one-to-one courses, across the destinations.
- Italian Cultural Activity classes: These courses are designed to combine Italian and Culture. They are aimed primarily at participants over 50 with a special interest in the Italian language, but the focus is more on the content than the age of the group! The course aims to seek a perfect balance between the study of Italian and its culture.
- Gap Year: Courses for students taking a year out before/after tertiary education, offering an accredited exam at the end.
- Italian Language Plus an activity: We have some special interest courses for those who may like to focus on something other than the Italian language for example drawing and painting, art history, archeology and football training.
* Italian Courses Accommodation Information: We have a made a selection of what we consider to be the best accommodation at each location. Our school not only offers a wealthy range of courses, but also a wide selection of accommodation to suit your needs: host family, student residence, private or shared flat and hotels. Courses have a minimum duration, usually 1 or more weeks.
* What other students have to say! "Mia esperienza a scuola era fantastica. La città mi ha piaciuto molto e le mie insegnanti sono molto brave e simpatiche". (Andreas, Germania)
Faculty Information:
All our staff are qualified, dedicated and experienced teachers who are native or bilingual speakers of Italian. Direct Communicative Technique methods are used throughout. These are currently considered the most effective systems of broadening the students' knowledge of vocabulary, structures and idiom. Classes are normally run between Mondays & Fridays. Due to varying travel schedules, alternative arrangements can be made. Students’ level of proficiency is established through a written assessment test on the first day of school.
