Florence is one of Italy’s most iconic cities, and certainly a favourite destination for visitors from all over the world. It’s in this beautiful city that you will study Italian for 15 hours per week, all while living in your teacher’s home and benefitting from a full board meal plan and access to conversation in Italian practically whenever you want it.

All teachers working with the home tuition programme are fully qualified, so you can expect carefully designed and delivered lessons on your course. To communicate any issues, Study & Live in your Teacher's Home asks guests to get in touch with their Local Organisers working in Florence.
