4.552 ratings - General Italian course only

This is the school’s most popular and in-demand course, with 20 hours of classes per week in which the student is placed in a group that corresponds to their current level of knowledge. The course gives equal weight to traditional forms of learning as to more informal means of learning, with 2 hours for both grammar learning and for conversation. Part of the reason for the popularity of the Standard course is that students can work hard during the early hours of the day, and then have their evenings free to explore Florence and take care of any personal errands. The Italian standard course is the most attended course: each class is organised according to levels, and is composed of students coming from all over the world. The Italian standard course consists of 4 hours lesson per day, 5 days a week, for a total of 20 weekly hours. Every morning you’ll take part in two hours of grammar lessons followed by two hours of conversation lessons, where teachers will present daily and real life situations. The Italian standard course is ideal: - for students of any level. - for those who want to have good results but have the afternoon free for their private commitments or visiting Florence. - for those who love the Italian language and culture and want to learn to speak Italian. - for those who want to learn or improve their understanding and their ability to speak Italian.

5.016 ratings - General Italian course only

This course includes 10 lessons a week, 2 lessons a day. One lesson is 45 minutes. Minimum 3 students.The semi intensive Italian language course is focused on people who wish to concentrate the study of the Italian Language in the first part of the morning so to have the rest of the day free to visit the city, to work or to study. The course allows you to spend a great part of your study holiday cultivating personal interests, without loosing the aim of practicing and improving the Italian language. The lessons combine an ideal mix of grammar and communication, the content tailored to your needs, in a relaxing, pleasant and interactive atmosphere, using the latest technology. Students attending the semi and intensive course are in the same group: the ones doing the intensive course stay until 12:45, the ones doing the semi intensive course leave at 11:00. So they are somehow missing the practice. The teacher will send them all the notes of what the class did in the second part of the morning, but they have to do something more on their own as well. That's why the minimum level of knowledge of the Italian Language to join this course is A2. The Semi Intensive Italian Language course includes extra activities all of them accompanied by one of our teachers: guided tours to Florentine museums, monuments, palaces and gardens, trips to Tuscan cities and villages, wine tastings and cooking classes, movies at the school, lectures and many others activities for your free time. The activities are free, you only have to pay for the entrance tickets for museums and monuments, public transports or food and beverage if necessary. If you want to learn Italian guided by professional teachers in a relaxing and wonderful setting supported by modern technology, but you still want to have free time to visit the city, study or work, don’t look any further: you’ve found the perfect match! The Semi Intensive Italian Language course is for you!

4.568 ratings - General Italian course only

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!

I am thrilled! The classes are the right age and all nationalities are represented. Great and, above all, dedicated teachers. The activities make it very easy to get to know each other. My language level went from A2 to B1 after 1 week of private lessons.

The teachers were very nice and the school is right in the centre. So you don't have long distances if you want to stroll around the city after class. For me, the most important point about learning Italian was that I had the Italian language around me all day.

Very nice and committed teachers, I had Giulia in grammar and Giada in conversation and I learned and laughed a lot. I can highly recommend the guided tour that is organized in the afternoon, you learn a lot of details that most guides certainly don't contain.

Excellent organization and communication with the school. I liked the teachers - the lessons were good. The school is in the very center of the city, it is convenient to get there and have a walk as soon as the lessons are finished. The school organised a very interesting city tour.
