These courses run through-out year, except for July and August. Classes are usually made of an average of 6-7 students (max 10).

Evening courses are less intensive (2-hour lessons twice a week) than standard courses, but run for a longer period (10 weeks). This makes it a good choice for students who are busy during the day.
The evening programs answer the needs common to working foreigners, such as improvement in written expression and formal spoken Italian.

Student information

Rather than conventional heavily-structured courses, we offer learning pathways with a humanistic/communicative approach that put the student in control of his/her education. Our teachers - all highly qualified native Italian speakers - guide each student along their individual path, and teach Italian through the use of exercises, games, roleplays and extra-curricular cultural activities in small classes (maximum 10 students). Communication is simultaneously the goal and method of the study.
