Positive aspects of school
"The school is in a very good location, making it accessible from virtually any part of Rome. The teachers are very well prepared to teach. At the secretary's office you can always get help and information you need. I highly recommend it!"
Negative aspects
"The only downside is the chairs in the teaching rooms. Normal school benches would be useful, not chairs with a folding table. It is very uncomfortable to work this way."

"Very informal, friendly teachers, relaxed atmosphere."
Negative aspects
"Classrooms too small, sometimes too many students next to each other. Only a small folding board on the chair for writing was a bit awkward. The walls were very thin and you could hear the teachers in the next room during lessons, which was very annoying."

Other comments
"Although the material was free for those of us who have only been there for a week, we should have been provided with the correction of all the exercises in the booklet once we had finished, which was denied, proposing online classes at 33 euros per hour as the only solution."

"It's not the first time I've been. It is a world heritage city, enough said."
Quality of teaching / language progress
"Unfortunately, the teacher was always talking about the problems with her family, ex-husband and children, and we have practically not seen any grammar, since she spent hours, as I indicate, talking about her particular issues. The group was very heterogeneous, there were people who knew very, very little, and others who knew more for the level in which we were placed."

"The information suggested that I would be on a one week course. What I was on was one week of a longer course and I just slotted into what was already being taught, so that was rather misleading. I recognise that it's not possible to arrange a course just for me, or for whoever is coming just for one week but the information needs to stop suggesting that you do anything other than fit into another, ongoing class, for a week, doing what they're doing, not necessarily what you really need to be doing."

"My accommodation was perfectly ok, however I would advise other students of my age (19) to look into it more closely: I stayed with an Italian woman between 60-70 years old and I have to say that I would have preferred a different accommodation in the end. She also did not expect me to be so young.
I think that younger students are better off elsewhere."

Positive aspects of school
"The school was well organised and clean. However, I was not in a suitable class. I was not tested for my level and I was lost from the very beginning. After two weeks of falling farther and farther behind I asked for individual tutoring. I was given that, but at an additional cost. I blame myself for not researching more fully what "immersion" really meant. I thought I was going to learn to speak Italian and instead it seemed like a class for fluent Italian speakers on the subject of grammar."
Insider tips about what future students should not miss
"Make sure you can already speak and understand Italian before enrolling in the school or you will be lost. There are other ways to learn Italian from the ground up and these methods should be used first. It was very lonely to spend a month with no English speaking friends. I was afraid to go on excursions because I didn't know what was going on."
Details of the review
Other comments
"The director and teachers tried to help and seemed sincerely concerned. It was like they were surprised I couldn't understand Italian. My individual teacher, Catia, was wonderful and made the rest of the course bearable. I will not be returning to Italy for Italian as I had planned."

"If Stefania is doing her walkabout tours on Friday afternoons, by all means go! She really knows what she's talking about, she's a hoot, and she's brilliant at speaking slowly enough and simply enough that even low-level students can understand her."

Other comments
"Overall, my experience was very good. I may well go back. However, I think they need a larger facility. Some of the classrooms are not really big enough for the larger classes, they really could use a library/listening lab, and there are not enough rest rooms!
A footnote to "Distance from accommodation to school": I was moved from one homestay to another after one month (arranged in advance). This was not a problem particularly. The second place was 15-20 minutes by public transport, but I chose to walk, which was 50 minutes."

"It wasn't made clear to me that due to holidays in Rome, I would miss 3 lessons since I had planned my departure on Saturday (Easter week). Clarifying beforehand on how many days overall a student is paying for would have been very helpful."

"The accommodation was very poor: the host mother had little knowledge of english, there were no drinking glasses, it was not allowed to stay in the kitchen or in the bathroom for a while, the water was only lukewarm and had no pressure in the water line, the beds are visibly worn out and too short, the room is too small for 2 people, there is only one desk for 2 students and poorly positioned boxes. Toilet paper has to be bought by yourself. The room was constantly warm."
