Where else should you learn Italian than in the city that gave birth to fine arts - and where
eating typical Tuscan dishes and local sourced produce in Trattorie is as good as it gets? We highly
recommend you opt for InFlorence Academy, the first language school established in Florence, located in a
16th Century building that strongly evokes the Renaissance period.
The school is surrounded by world famous sights, the cosiest of cafés and most intriguing of markets.
Crossing the Ponte Vecchio to get your daily dose of Italian gelato and espresso will be just one of the many
things you will do while experiencing Florence’s artistic ambience.
The premises of the school are on the fourth floor, where we have the reception and 7 classrooms available for our students: a modern and functional furnished environment, equipped with free wifi and air conditioning. Here you will find a familiar and professional space, where our students attend Italian classes in small groups or will have private Italian lessons. The location is also equipped for events and extracurricular activities such as film screenings or seminars. Our students are the protagonists of the learning path. The goal is to accompany them to discover the Italian language in a natural and pleasant way. The greatest success comes when students tell us that while speaking the Italian language they discover a new part of themselves and day by day the language becomes familiar. The teaching method derives from the most modern theories that emphasize skills in communication. Groups are small; we guarantee a maximum of 8 students. The lessons are carefully built on the needs and skills of the participants in the group. Both in the courses in person and in the online Italian lessons at every level, the Italian teacher uses the Italian language in class and always updated teaching techniques to develop the four basic skills: speaking with an Italian accent, listening and understanding the authentic language, reading and writing in Italian. In addition to the textbook, audiovisual materials are used and the lesson is always supported by the most modern technologies to make the interaction between students and teacher dynamic and the environment friendly and relaxing. Last, but not least, to support the work to be done at home, every day students receive an email in which they find all the lesson developed in the classroom, and they can use the audiovisual materials of the textbook provided by the school.
"A fost o experiență pe care nu aș vrea să o ratez!"
Școala ABC predă limba și cultura italiană studenților din întreaga lume și își are sediul principal la Florența din 1982.
Școala este autorizată oficial de MIUR (Ministerul Educației din Italia) și este membră a Asociației Școlilor din ASILS® italiene. În toți acești ani ne-am îmbunătățit ofertele pentru a face față mai bine nevoilor reale ale elevilor noștri.
În 2015 am deschis un nou birou în fermecătorul Baia del Silenzio (Golful Tăcerii) din Sestri Levante (Genova), una dintre cele mai frumoase plaje din Italia.
Cunoscut și sub numele de orașul cu două mări, Sestri Levante este așezat pe un promontoriu extins pe mare, punct de plecare pentru două golfuri, Golful Tăcerii și Golful Poveștilor, numit astfel în onoarea lui Hans Christian Andersen care a locuit aici în 1833.
Sestri Levante oferă multe oportunități, inclusiv trasee naturale cu vederi uluitoare asupra mării; cursuri de navigatie; centre de scufundări, precum și excursii la Cinque Terre, Portovenere, San Fruttuoso Portofino ...
La Sestri Levante se poate ajunge ușor cu mașina, cu trenul sau cu avionul. Genoa și Pisa sunt cele mai apropiate aeroporturi.
La sosirea în Firenze, elevii sunt rugați să meargă direct la apartamentul sau familia gazdă. Adresa de cazare este comunicată în prealabil elevilor sau agențiilor de turism, împreună cu un număr de telefon al familiei / proprietarului și un număr de telefon de urgență. Dacă întârzie, elevul trebuie să sune la aceste numere pentru a informa familia / proprietarul gazdă. Școala este închisă sâmbătă și duminică.
Școala este situată la etajul 2 al clădirii, în inima centrului vechi al orașului Firence. Există un salon unde elevii își pot petrece timpul în timpul pauzelor sau după lecții, o bibliotecă cu cărți și DVD-uri, un pian și un colț cu acces la internet. Cele 16 clase mari, cu aer condiționat, sunt dotate cu videoproiectoare și internet wireless.
Elevii noștri provin din toată lumea și au motivații foarte diferite, experiență școlară anterioară diferită, moduri diferite de învățare și chiar școli de diferite tipuri. Această situație necesită o actualizare continuă, precum și flexibilitate mentală și creativitate.
Profesorul are mai multe roluri în clasă, toate fiind indispensabile: facilitator, animator, consultant lingvistic și diseminator de cultură. Aceasta implică o abordare experimentală a profesiei și o atenție constantă la dinamica grupului. Textele și materialele didactice multimedia pe care le folosim sunt rezultatul cercetării și dezvoltării continue pentru a le adapta nevoilor reale ale elevilor.
În afară de gramatică și sintaxă, există patru abilități - citirea, scrierea, ascultarea și vorbirea - pe care le considerăm necesare a fi dezvoltate chiar de la primul nivel, pentru a permite înțelegerea și exprimarea în situații comunicaționale autentice. În acest scop, situațiile sunt simulate în clasă folosind material didactic autentic. Structurile și vocabularul sunt adaptate la nivelurile inferioare și devin din ce în ce mai complexe până când, la niveluri avansate, diferite tipuri de text sunt utilizate pentru a încuraja recunoașterea și reproducerea diferitelor stiluri lingvistice.
The school offers private and group courses, at all levels, all year round, morning and afternoon. The maximum number of students per class is 10, which stimulates effective interaction in class and the students' active involvement in exercises involving linguistic production. The structure and content of the programmes for all levels are based on the Common European Framework for Languages.
All didactic material is included in the course price.
Paying constant attention to the evolving needs of the students has led us to adapt, innovate and diversify- in the form of offering additional, practical based courses in arts and and design, taught in florentine studios and workshops. We also offer music classes for opera lovers and singers. It is also possibile to take an Italian language course followed by an internship with a leading Italian company.
Our teaching staff is carefully selected, highly trained and periodically updated. All the educators have years of experience which allow them to optimally deal with students of different ages, cultural backgrounds, and motivations. Our teachers are able to turn multicultural classes into intercultural ones, while at the same time they having a role as entertainer, consultant and linguistic facilitator.

The Leonardo da Vinci school is located in an historical palazzo, situated in the heart of the city of Florence, with a magnificent view of the Cathedral. From here you can reach the most beautiful and famous places in the city in only few minutes walk. Our school occupies an entire building of 3 floors and with 15 spacious and light classrooms.

Our 40 years of experience make us a well-established and reliable reality in the world of language schools. We are very proud of our professional and friendly staff, who do their best to make every student's stay unique in terms both of language learning and of cultural experience.
Our teaching method is influenced by modern didactics and is designed according to the 'Concept of Foreign Languages' of the European Council and the guidelines of the ''Accademia Italiana di Lingua (AIL)".
We follow a communicative method: from the first day of lessons and at each ability level, only Italian is spoken in class. We put particular emphasis on spoken language and on communication, but also deal with the 4 base abilities (reading, writing, oral comprehension and speaking).
Lessons are interesting, interactive and also fun, organized in a relaxed atmosphere in which learning is done naturally. Text books are supported by authentic material, like newspapers, magazines and video, that facilitate learning about contemporary Italy and the many different aspects of Italian culture.
Our teachers, experts in teaching Italian to foreign students, are there for the students, to guide them, motivate them and help them in their learning.
In addition, through the years Scuola Leonardo da Vinci has developed its own teaching method. The books have been conceived for speeding up the learning process of Italian language. Grammar is presented in a logic and organized way, followed by examples and a wide range of practical exercises and short stories that give both students and teachers many opportunities for making conversation in Italian language.
All the programmes have been thought in order to reach your goals, independently from the duration of the course. Having a deep knowledge of Italian grammar (through the continuous practice of writing, reading and speaking in real situations) is the principle which Scuola Leonardo da Vinci’s method is based on.

- private people of all ages, who study Italian for their personal needs or for passion
- language students, who need to prepare for their Italian exams
- business people who need the Italian language for work
The one-to-one courses are characterized by the individual study programs, which are tailored to the linguistic needs and the profile of each student taking into consideration his/her linguistic background, age, motivation, and learning structure. In this way, it is possible to focus also on particular aspects of the language, such as grammar, conversation, pronunciation, etc. and/or to include the vocabulary of the Italian language you use for your work/study.
In the process of learning a language, the fact of being continuously followed by an experienced teacher and practicing the Italian structures actively during this time permits to accelerate a lot the speed of learning. One week of our one-to-one courses corresponds to about a month with a regular size group class. The study program is developing according to the daily results.
Our one-to-one Italian language courses may start and finish on any day requested. On request, the courses can continue also during the weekend and on holidays in order to take full advantage of your stay in Florence.

--Selection of the most appropriate instruments and their way of utilisation, such as conversational activities, audio-visual material, articles from newspapers or reviews, etc.;
--Controlling of the process of learning: small tests, guided conversations, graduated exercises in order to verify the results of the various stages of learning, and to decide on the exact ongoing of the studying program;
