Intensive Italian language course. The intensive Italian language course is our standard course, and consists of 4 Italian lessons a day, totaling 20 lessons a week.

The lessons are held from Monday to Friday in groups of no more than 14 students, led by qualified teachers, who are passionate about their work.
The lessons begin every Monday for students that already have some knowledge of the Italian language and every two weeks for absolute beginners.

Our lessons are principally based on spoken communication but also deal with the more formal aspects of the language (lexis/vocabulary and grammar). Lots of time is dedicated to activities that encourage dialogue and discussion about various topics, from art and literature to modern city culture.

Textbooks are provided by the school and are included in the price of the course. The teachers use not only these textbooks but also other support materials (newspaper articles, songs, films and other authentic material from everyday life) to give students the opportunity to engage with different forms of contemporary communication and to improve their communication abilities.

Our golden rule is: the teacher is the director, but the group of students are the real protagonists of the lessons.

The lesson groups are made up of people from all over the world and from different age groups.

Apart from studying the language, there is still lots of time for culture, sports and fun! The school organizes loads of extracurricular activities in the afternoons and evenings, allowing students to discover the city, visit museums and exhibitions and enjoy daily life! In addition, there's a cinema discussion group, weekend excursions, visits to typical wine cellars and workshops, group 'aperitivi' drinks, and trattoria dinners… because part of learning a language is also living and enjoying the culture! 

Description

Scuola Leonardo da Vinci® in Italy has four locations in Italy: Florence, Milan, Rome, and Siena.  Since its beginning, combining language with culture was the school’s central concept and trademark. 
In its more than 40 years, Scuola Leonardo da Vinci has hosted students of various nationalities from all over the world ( more than 5.000 per year). 

Today Scuola Leonardo da Vinci looks toward the future and specializes in offering courses specifically designed to target age, profession, and availability. At the same time the school still brings forward its initial idea that there is no language without culture and by that, it has reinforced its research of new methodologies for training teachers of the second and foreign language.
