What’s the best school for learning Italian in Italy, if I’m a beginner going for four weeks?

February 17th, 2010 | by admin |

I’m an American and am prepared to spend the month of June anywhere in Italy, learning basic Italian. I’ve never taken a class in Italian before. I’m open to living in any city but would probably prefer someplace like Florence, Siena, or Bologna. Rome would also be ok.

I have rated a number of schools and I reckon the best place is the Dante Alighieri school in Mondavio. There are a couple of other great places that I have checked out :

You need to be careful though as I first studied Italian in Florence and learnt nothing – huge classes and in a city where everyone spoke English. In Mondavio virtually no one speaks English so you are forced to speak Italian and the school is fantastic. It will definitely remain forever with you as an experience of a lifetime.

    I agree (I’m Italian myself, and living in Milano), Perugia is probably THE place to go. Plus, while hot during the day (in the summer) it’s still ok at night, as it’s on a hill.
