- 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.
Location: Ciao Italia is a relatively small-sized school, located in the central Monti District of Italy's famous city of Rome. Within walking distance of such unique sites as the Basilica Papale di Santa Maria Maggiore, Pantheon, the Roman Forum and the Colleseum, students are surrounded by a wealth of history and culture whilst studying at Ciao Italia. Green spaces such as the Villa Aldobrandini, Giardini di Montecavallo and Villa Carlo Alberto at the Quirinale are all close by, along with multiple restaurants, eateries, shops and market spaces. The Cavour Metro Station is only a 7-minute walk from the school's front doors, ensuring students have all they need to enjoy the wonders of the city.
Course selection: The small size of the school ensures a friendly and inclusive atmosphere for all. Course selection has something for students of all levels, including courses taught in both groups and privately, over several schedules and intensities. Exam preparation courses (CILS, CELI, PLIDA) are also available throughout the year, as well as Business Italian Language.
Social and cultural: Rome is a city full of activities, excursions, tours and active nightlife. Ciao Italia has a lively social programme that offers something for students of all tastes and preferences. Whether students wish to take lunch with a teacher, gain discounted entry to ballet, theatre, opera or concerts, or see the many monuments and wonders of Rome with guided tours, Ciao Italia is sure to offer assistance with all extracurricular needs.

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.

“I liked the commitment, professionalism and reliability of the teachers,
A great advantage of the school is the creation of small groups, which allows for a more individualised learning process. The school is focused on the student and the development of his/her language skills, which is why the conversation lessons are very useful. I recommend this school in Rome to all those who want to master the language.”

“languagecourse.net should have advertised that the school was closed the Monday before Ferragosta and offered me a refund based on this lack of information being given to me at the time of booking. No activities organised. No induction to library etc. It would also be nice to be told what the course is covering rather than just being put into a classroom with no context. Too many useless emails from languagecourse.net with incorrect detail and information. You got it wrong so many times it’s frustrating. ”
