What we like about the school
  • The school organises free guided tours of the city.
  • Excellent rating of homestay accommodation
    5.0
  • Free assistance in finding flats for long-term students.
What we dislike about the school
  • Do not offer favorable cancellation terms in the case of a student getting a visa rejected.

Location: Scuola Leonardo da Vinci Turin is located in one of the choicest locations in the city, in the Piazza San Carlo, next to the famous Caffè Torino. The school is housed in the Palazzo Turinetti di Pertengo; students step out the door and they are in the very centre of Turin. From there, almost all the major attractions of the city can be visited on foot: the Egyptian Museum; the Mole Antonelli; Piazza Castello and the Palazzo Madama; Turin’s Royal Palace; and Saint John the Baptist Cathedral, home to the Holy Shroud of Turin; are all within walking distance. The Via Roma, with its high-end shops, goes directly from the Piazza San Carlo to the Porta Nuova train and subway station in less than 10 minutes.

The school: Scuola Leonardo da Vinci has excellent facilities and they strive to keep a school where students can feel welcome and at home. It is an authorised examination centre for the "Florence" exams of the Italian Academy of Language (AIL) and the CILS exams of the University for foreigners of Siena. They offer Intensive Italian courses, language and culture programmes which include art history, and modern day Italy, as well as their 50+ Dolce Vita programme.

Added Bonus: As one in a group of five schools, Scuola Leonardo da Vinci in Turin also gives students the opportunity to take their studies to one of their partner schools in other cities in Italy, organising special programmes with that very purpose in mind.

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 school has a very warm and friendly atmosphere, with fun social activities to get to know each other. The teachers are very good, informal and have a lot of patience. They will gladly answer all your questions after class or during the breaks.
Insider tip: The apericena is a very good way to get to know the other students and make new friends. Also if you are interested in buying more books on Italian language or grammar, the school sells a lot of different books for all levels. The coffee-machine in the school is fine but for really good coffee you should go to the bar just around the corner called 'CAFFETTERIA PRESIDENT' in via Pastrengo. There they have great coffee and hot chocolate but also lunch if you're having a long day at school!

Everyone in the organisation, especially Chiara, were very caring and friendly. They always want to help and they pay attention to everyone. Every morning, upon entering the school, you are welcomed by a friendly greeting.
Insider tip: Join the school activities! It's a good way to get to know new people and practice the language and Vera, who is usually in charge of the activities, knows the city and the Italian culture well and explains it in a great way.

The courses are run by good teachers, there are flexible additional materials. The integration into the ongoing course was very okay for me as a participant of only one week among participants of several weeks.
Disliked
The use of media is very low. It would be great if there were also opportunities to speak individually or to take small interim tests.

Super teacher (Alessio), interesting lessons, good, digital equipment (however, was temporarily accommodated at the Abbey School with the course as the courses at the main location were fully booked).
Disliked
Tip: Hand out confirmation of participation directly after completion of the course.
Insider tip: Weekend excursion which I unfortunately could no longer take part in
Details of the review
Quality of teaching / language progress: Super fun, interesting preparation C1
Other comments Offer the guided tour on different topics rather for certain level. Otherwise, some people don't understand so much and ask the same-speakers in their mother tongue to translate. It's a bit of an unfortunate situation. This is my third course. Rome and Turin are at the top of my list.

The atmosphere was very good. Teachers were enthusiastic and there was a lot of individual attention. Met a lot of nice people and great social things were organized. Will definitely come back here!
Insider tip: Although public transportation in Turin is well organized, I would say, make sure you have a bicycle! Due to its Roman structure it is very easy to find your way in the city.
Details of the review
Other comments It's great that the classes are so small, there is always time for personal questions. I would have liked it to "learn more creatively" through literature, art, film, radio, music. That was discussed a bit the last week and worked very well!

Very good teaching staff, interested in the subject and in the students, who are able to inspire the students with the language and who are also very friendly.

The accompanying booklet, which offers little explanation of grammar topics, is not optimal. The seating is not very comfortable and the tables offer too little shelf space.

"A very very nice Hostess worked 8-8pm daily…too difficult for her to organize dinners, especially because she often had plans to go out/meet her friends at 9:30pm or so. Terrific separate, yet attached, apartment. Recommend her only offering breakfast items placed in the student’s apartment. Again, very very nice woman but difficult for her to provide dinners…"
