This course consists of 20 lessons per week from 09.00 - 13.00, though at certain times of the year, for 1 week out of 4, lessons may be held from 2pm to 6pm.The aim of these courses is to develop a firm grasp of the structure of Italian with an emphasis on communication skills. A wide variety of up-to-date authentic material is used in class, giving the students valuable information about modern-day Italian culture and society.

In our centre in Rome, a five-storied Liberty style villa, there are 11 classrooms (in addition to 15 others, in the two annexes situated 50m from the main building) The quality of the teaching and services provided by the school is guaranteed by its membership of EAQUALS (European Association for Quality Language Services), ELITE (Excellent Language Institutions Teaching in Europe), ALTO (Association of Language Travel Organisations), ASILS (Associazione Scuole d'Italiano come Lingua Seconda), and International House. The school has developed dynamic teaching methods and a stimulating Italian language programme that incorporates students' personal interests and various aspects of Italian life. We also operate as a teacher-training centre.

The school organises a full and varied programme of social activities for students (e.g. films, excursions, concerts, operas, guided tours, parties etc) The aim is to ensure that students have every opportunity to practise the language they are learning and at the same time to make friends and have fun. The teaching staff run the activities, making sure that any language or other difficulties are taken care of. A calendar of social events is given to each student on entry to the school. All activities except dinners, excursions and concerts are included in the enrolment fee.
