- Welcome dinner.
- Free assistance in finding flats for long-term students.
What we dislike about the school
- Younger students should consider that the average age of students at this school is significantly higher than at most other schools.

Student comments
Dagmar: "Thanks to Corona there were only two of us and that was great and intense! 2nd week for three!"
Yannick: "I liked the small size of the classes (three students the first week, five students the second week), the fact that there were not just teenage students but also older adults from all over the world. The teachers are very passionate and give great personal attention. Having two different teachers each day is a very good concept. The course material could yet be refreshed and there could be more use of videos and role plays in class. Some excursions/activities were a bit on the expensive side. A good enriching experience overall! "

Additional information
Insider tips about what future students should not miss: I started with the intensive, 6 hours a day, which I eventually found too much, despite how inviting it sounds, it's hard to absorb that much at one time.
Other comments: I really loved the school & would only suggest more excursions to some of the small villages around that area or even a trip to the termi at Rapolano or Bagno Vignoni. I was there in Oct. & perhaps the enrollment at that time was too low for such trips.

Other comments: Particularly in off-season, students should be advised up-front not to arrive on a Sunday, as connections to the nearest train station (Chiusi) become problematic.
