The Intensive Italian course from Scuola Leonardo da Vinci is the main offering among their programme options and involves taking 4 classes every day (20 per week). Most of the lessons’ focus is directed towards verbal communication, meaning you will spend a significant amount of time speaking in class and resolving any issues you have with pronunciation or listening skills. Even so, the elements of Italian language study that are related to vocabulary and grammar are still given their due importance.
This academy believes that play is just as important as work, and for that reason, they organise extracurricular activities for students to enjoy in the afternoons and evenings. These might involve taking day trips to museums, wine cellars, cultural discussion groups, and more. Through these activities, the school wants to show you that learning a language is much more than just learning in the classroom, and instead is all about having fun using your new or expanding knowledge of the language.
The intensive Italian language course is the standard course led by qualified teachers, who are passionate about their work.
Lessons are principally based on spoken communication, but also deal with the more formal aspects of the language (lexis/vocabulary and grammar). Lots of time is dedicated to activities that encourage dialogue and discussion about various topics, from art and literature to modern city culture.
The teachers use not only these textbooks, but also other support materials (newspaper articles, songs, films and other authentic material from everyday life) to give students the opportunity to engage with different forms of contemporary communication and to improve their communication abilities.
The golden rule is: the teacher is the director, but the group of students are the real protagonists of the lessons.
Apart from studying the language, there is still lots of time for culture, sport and fun! The school organizes loads of extracurricular activities in the afternoons and evenings, allowing students to discover the city, visit museums and exhibitions and to enjoy daily life!

This course is for students that want to learn quickly and intensively, benefiting from the intimate environment of a small group - the intensive language course in small groups is tailored to meet your individual needs.
Learning a foreign language well means not just attending any course, but choosing which course is right for you, your own needs and your own personality. In a more intimate environment, where there is the confidence and friendly atmosphere created by a small group, it is often easier to get involved in the various communicative activities. These aspects often become key, allowing you to achieve significant improvements.
Working in a small group allows the teacher to dedicate more time to the individual needs of each student, solving their doubts, filling in their grammatical gaps and following their daily progress.

This course prepares students for the CILD exam. This course is for the citizenship exam.
Scuola Leonardo da Vinci organizes specific courses aimed toward those who want to obtain the CILS certification. Those courses are held during the weeks immediately prior to the exam dates established by the Università per Stranieri di Siena and aim to provide thorough preparation with regard to the different skills required. The preparation, on one end, analyzes and tests the evidence of previous examinations, while also carrying out specific problems that the teacher may identify.
Analysis and testing of the examination: First, the student is given a comprehensive overview of the various sections that make up the exam. The teacher then introduces the individual tests illustrating their nature, main characteristics and assessment criteria used at the time of correction. It then goes on to the practice during which students face the tests, first without the time constraints imposed by the true examination, then trying to stay within those limits.
Insight: Thanks to testing corrections, there are continuously assessed aspects that the student should compile and utilize in proposed reinforcement activities. The teacher identifies, from time to time, critical points and specific difficulties, and program revisions targeted through certain topics through theoretical explanations and educational activities.
