What we like about the school
  • Near many touristic places like Pompeii, Amalfi, Sorrento, Capri, Ravello, Positano, Paestum.
  • Weekly cultural seminars on different topics: cinema, theatre, political, music, Italian gestures, sayings and idioms, and more.
  • Every afternoon free organized leisure activities for adults and juniors
  • Homestay accommodation very close to school
  • Free assistance in finding flats for long-term students.
What we dislike about the school
  • Cancellation fees for students having to cancel due to visa rejection.
  • Class time is shorter than in other schools at 45 minutes per lesson.

General Italian courses run all year round with a programme divided into 6 levels, according to the CEFR Common European Framework, from beginner to advanced level (A1-C2). All the courses develop practical communication skills. Students from the age of 16 are accepted and the minimum period of attendance is one week.

The size of the classes is a maximum of 10 participants, meaning that your teacher will get to know your individual strengths and weaknesses as the course progresses and be able to help you with any language obstacle you may encounter.

Student comments about "Standard 20" at Accademia Italiana
Helga 5.0
"Outstanding."
Andrea 5.0
"Approx. 10-12 people was the upper limit, but thanks to the good dialogue/teaching it was always productive and cheerful."
Lesley 5.0
"Excellent."
Special note for 2025 holiday season: If you plan to take a course during the high season months of April, June, July or August 2025 we urgently advise you to book as early as possible. In 2024 many schools were fully booked during the holidays, and the situation is unlikely to be different for 2025 due to a current shortage of teachers, which affects most schools.

"The two-to-one one course certainly paid off. In a group, the spread of levels is greater and therefore less progress is made by everyone. Too fast for some and too slow for others."

Student comments about "Language, Food and Wine" at Accademia Italiana
Javier 5.0
"Some activities are done together with the 50+ programme. Cooking and wine activities take place even if there is only 1 participant, so in this case you must have a good knowledge of Italian to understand the instructors."

“- spontaneous support when changing rooms, as my room was too low for my height (slanted) and it was raining in - Lessons: first small group, then group of 2, then 45 minutes individual lessons ("Bildungsurlaub") - Special requests were catered for and grammar was explained again; interesting topics; books were provided; lots of free speaking - Lessons in groups of 2 and individual lessons: Teacher was always well prepared; answered all questions competently; very patient even if the answers to the questions sometimes took longer to form sentences; he repeated the student's answers so that improvements in his own sentence structure and vocabulary could be noted; always showed interest in what the student said; did not stick firmly to his own preparation so that conversations/topics could deviate; lessons did not end abruptly despite the end time ("Overtime").”
Disliked
“- Test at the end of each week I would have liked to be graded, at least an assessment - I would have liked a final test with assessment - The school and lesson evaluation form was completed during the group lessons following the weekly test. This resulted in a lack of teaching time and too little time for the assessment. It would have been better to do it the day before the end, possibly in your own room. I couldn't write everything down the way I wanted to - Evaluation of activities from the school: neutral, as I had so many lessons due to "Bildungsurlaub" that I could only take part in the orientation tour through the city.”

“The school had a large number of students of various ages when I was there in October. As a result, there were classes for all levels of Italian, and there were many activities organised by the school in addition to the classes. Teaching was of a high quality. The school organised visits to Pompeii, various parts of the Amalfi Coast and other places of interest both during the week and on Saturdays.”
Insider tip: “Salerno is relatively cheap for eating out by the standards of other Italian cities. It is also a very attractive smaller city. There is a small beach, where you can swim, not far from the school.”

Other comments A very good school, particularly suited to people who wish to combine improving their Italian with having an excellent holiday.

“The staff, they are all friendly and competent. Teachers (mostly women) are patient and understanding and they seem competent and motivated. Time flies in class (2 hours, break, 1 hour) and there are quite a few social activities in the afternoon. But these activities are enough for a month. If you intend to stay longer, you will finish all the activities.”
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: It is a small school without many levels so, I had to switch class for a more appropriate level. Classrooms are supposed to be for 10 people but they are not comfortable at all for 10 adults plus furniture and books. I would say 6 or 7 the a mire ideal number.
Other comments It could be refurbished, especially the toilets. Classes can hold up to 10 people but with all the material it is hard to fit 10 people in there. I think they should only place 5 o 6 adults in each class. Chairs and tables need to be changed, and they should paint the walls and change the lights. The decorations seems old. The staff is so nice and so competent that the rest is not that important. The general lounge is a bit empty.

“Its unbeatable location in Salerno and the friendliness of all the people working at the Academy. The teaching is good.”
Disliked
“I had to pay for the accommodation in cash, with the credit card I could only pay for the Academy. In the "cooking and wine" programme, the cooking class and the wine tasting in the 2nd week were very similar to the first week and I was the only one enrolled in the programme.”
Insider tip: “In the general programme, the Academy organises activities every day, usually for a fee. It is also possible to sign up for specific activities in other programmes (50+, food & wine) if places are available.”
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: Some activities are done together with the 50+ programme. Cooking and wine activities take place even if there is only 1 participant, so in this case you must have a good knowledge of Italian to understand the instructors.
Other comments There are students from a wide variety of countries.

Disliked
“It was definitely too late for me that on 30 May, when nothing could be changed and I was already travelling, I was told who my landlord was and I wasn't even told the address directly. Unfortunately, the address, Viccolo de la neve, would probably not have told me that the flat was close to the school and new and clean, but super cramped and almost completely without daylight. A real problem, but hardly the school's fault as it was just round the corner from the school. Next time I'll express my wish for daylight when I book for Salerno, but I'd love to come back to the school in the next few years. Only then with a private host and early notification of the address.”
Insider tip: “Unfortunately, all the museums were closed, but the short hikes down from Castwllo di Arechi and from Minori to Maiori were worthwhile. Swimming at the Spiaggia de S. Teresa, Salerno and in Minori it should also have been nice not to swim after the tasting. Drive Traghetto!!!”

“What I liked most about the school: the location, the teachers and the helpful administrative staff”
Insider tip: “For many trips - especially to the Amalfi coast - it is much cheaper and more relaxing to go there on your own by ferry or bus. The schedules of the ferry and bus companies are all online. When you go e.g. to Amalfi on a school-organised trip, you usually go back on an earlier ferry so that you have little time to go swimming or explore the place at your own pace.”
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: The teachers were really good, highly motivated and helpful. I guess they have very concrete instructions what to teach each week as everybody on the same level gets to do a test at the end of every week to checks student's progress. So I can't blame it on the teachers that we focused mainly on grammar. We also made a lot of conversation, but it was mainly random and not centred on a particular topic. In the first week, we mainly practised the correct usage of the verbs 'essere' and 'avere', which is fine, but it would have been more useful to learn everyday survival phrases (e.g. how /what to order in a bar/restaurant, how to give and ask for directions etc.). In general, there was much more focus on grammar than on vocabulary. I would prefer a more topic-/content-focused approach (Content-Integrated-Learning). The activities offered were good, but in my opinion often overpriced, especially the guided walks. The classrooms were very small and it was often difficult to find space for one's books on the table.
Other comments The teachers are great but the (presumably management-imposed?) focus on grammar rather than on specific topic-centered vocabulary seems a bit outdated to me.

“Our teacher had a very old-fashioned frontal teaching style. Her speaking time was disproportionately high compared to that of the pupils and there was no overview of what was to be learnt during the week. Grammar was taught too little and sometimes too late. However, other students in other courses were very satisfied with their teachers. I would have liked more information about the individual excursions in advance, e.g. more integration into the lessons. There was too much and too complicated language for beginners.”
Insider tip: “Delicious aperitivo at the "lungomare".”
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: Far too many hours, the extra 1:1 hours required for this are expensive and prevent participation in excursions. At the end of the day, you are no longer focussed enough. More hours does not mean more learning success. Other federal states only require 30 hours.

“The allocation of the numerous students into groups seemed strange, in my group the level of previous knowledge was very different and the level was actually too low for me. But I didn't care enough to ask for a change.”
