What we like about the school
  • Students receive a student card for discounts at different restaurants, clubs, sport shops and more.
  • Free assistance in finding flats for long-term students.
What we dislike about the school
  • Younger students should consider that the average age of students at this school is significantly higher than at most other schools.
  • Do not offer favorable cancellation terms in the case of a student getting a visa rejected.
  • Lessons are 45 minutes long, which is shorter than in other schools.

Student reviews about "Super Intensive Course" at Scuola Leonardo da Vinci
Gervasio 5.0
"Very satisfied."
Anna 4.0
"I often didn't like the lessons with Cristiano. Exclusively grammar, no conversation, no varied methods. He often made fun of students. The conversation class with Erica, on the other hand, was excellent!"
Deirdre (sister Therese) 4.0
"Disappointed I couldn't have the superintensive course I paid for. Instead, only morning classes which were good, but one short conversation class in afternoon, (teacher was never on time, was often looking at her phone, often left class for a few minutes, spoke at times in English, and we ended early) only three days a week, were almost a waste of time and money. The last week was better since I was given a better teacher."

Matthias 4.0
"30 lessons are actually 22.5 hours, as one lesson is 45 minutes. I knew that beforehand, but still not much individual tuition. Especially as the times are set and the school is very inflexible when it comes to requests for changes."

“All of my teachers so far have been great and explained things well. The lessons are well structured and cover vocabulary, grammar, and conversation. I have felt incredibly comfortable at this school.”
“Overall, I was completely satisfied. The only minor “flaws” I can think of are: you find out your timetable at fairly short notice, and unfortunately my placement after the first test was incorrect. However, I was quickly able to switch to another class at the right level.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: For me, the perfect number of hours for a slightly longer stay.

“Not receiving the booked course. Different language levels of the participants. Only one grammar topic for a week; disappointing range of activities. No solutions available for workbook tasks, apart from the homework (one task) which was discussed in class.”

Everything worked very well and the teacher was very committed and was able to respond individually to our knowledge.

“My teacher Alessandro was simply great. He was responsive to everyone. His lessons were effective and yet relaxed. We laughed a lot and still learnt seriously.”
“I didn't like the fact that the school didn't respond to the students' wishes at all - I realise that this isn't always possible - always under the premise of keeping the level in a class at the same level. The reality was a little different.”

“Excellent location. Dynamic and friendly teacher. Nice mixture of teaching methods. Nice mixture of ages in the class. Good text book.”
“Classrooms are small for the numbers in the class and depending on your seat you could not always get a good view of the board. Teacher spoke rather too quickly for A2. No study space i.e. a library or study room for students. Days were too short. After school activities were not possible if you had a 12:00 class or had to be back in your accommodation in the evenings. Text book did not have answers in the back so you could not check your progress.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: Was expecting a bit more from the course ie slides, lectures. In reality it was just photocopies from a text book about specific aspects. A nice teacher but she did not speak very clearly. The classroom was in the cellar and was very musty.
Other comments: I’m not sure it has been very well thought out about fitting in students who are only there for a short period. The school badly needs a room where students can study especially as the teaching day is so short.

“Partly friendly and open-minded”
“From my experience (and the experience of other classmates), students who can only attend for one week do not seem to be given much priority. They are there and participate, but not even 5 minutes are spent on topics that the long-term participants had last week, to do another 5 minutes of repetition for the newcomers, for whom this topic may have been a little while ago.

If you wanted to write something down, the papers were taken away because the teacher said we should remember it and not always write it.
The correct solutions were often not repeated, but rather, for example, the words of the sentence were quickly tapped on the blackboard in the correct order, so that afterwards we still didn't know the correct position of the words.

Together with a classmate, I told the teacher that we would like him to wait a moment for us to answer a question and not pass the question on to the next person after three seconds, so that we could hardly react ourselves. We were told that in Rome no one waits until the next day to get an answer.”

“Location was terrific. Good course work.
Class size was good … about 14 people.”
“The teachers spoke too fast. Slower please to understand what was going on and to receive instructions for exercises. Moved too quickly. I changed levels because the first level was too stressful. I wanted the class to be fun and learn a lot at the same time. Once I change classes, it was better.
I would have liked more camaraderie with more senior aged students.
Having a longer period of time for the break… Like 30 minutes, would allow for more time to get to know other students. Finishing the day 15 minutes later would be a worthwhile trade off.
Since one of the days was a national holiday, I would rather have gotten a reduced rate than trying to do make up classes and making for a very long day.”
Insider tip: “Not really.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: I would have enjoyed and appreciated the course so much more if the teacher would make an effort to speak more slowly and try to help students understand what is going on.

“Very dedicated teachers and super central location. Top one-to-one tuition!”
“Far too large groups (15 students) for my taste, hardly any opportunities for questions and entirely Italian even for a beginners' course.”
Insider tip: “More individual lessons or smaller groups. 14+ students is really a very large group.”
Quality of teaching / language progress: 30 lessons are actually 22.5 hours, as one lesson is 45 minutes. I knew that beforehand, but still not much individual tuition. Especially as the times are set and the school is very inflexible when it comes to requests for changes.
Other comments: Events and opportunities to get to know each other are limited to eating pizza and visiting the stadium - a pity - no shared coffee or other initiatives by the teachers. Very large impersonal school.

“The location was excellent and it was good to meet other people on the course. By the 3rd lesson I felt as i was making progress.”
“The first day was chaotic with students moving in and out of the class and it would have helped to have had the book in advance. The classroom was small and noisy ( noise from outside). A greater range of teaching activities would have been good.”

"Very friendly host who made an effort to speak to you in Italian. Food was good, plentiful and prompt. There were two other language students in the flat. The overall feel of the flat was a bit chaotic. Didn’t feel a very nice area but extremely convenient for the metro. Took 45 minutes to an hour commuting.

The evaluations by students after they complete a course is excellent. The discount for using your website is also a great incentive. It also would be wonderful if the website would include more cities and a bigger selection of schools in each city.
