"Everything and everyone has been brilliant and very helpful at school with every query i've had!"

Nicoleta Lenuta Evans, student from UK

The class and starting times suited me very well . Both our tutors Gabriella & Serena have done their best to help me and my colleagues in learning , writing & speaking effectively the Italian Language.
For my first week I was housed with a few other students, my flat was clean & fresh bedcovers but the matress wasn't comfortable , I'm afraid. I have found erveything I needed in the kitchen & bathroom and happy to be able to use the washing machine. The housemates were absolutely great & I will miss them.
The following two weeks I transferred myself to live in Emanuella's house a very nice & caring lady. Emanuella has got a little dog Sso with which I became friends & given him biscottini in exchange of a kiss on my nouse. She did her best first me & I loved my spacious room & the comfy double bed, Emanuella prepared collazione every morning for me & one one occasion she & her partner invited me for having cena together. I have been shown around Lido di Camaiore, rode on my bici following Emanuella to the nearest supermarket, went to the beach together & we had lots of conversations in italian
Emanuella has been very patient and supportive and living with her helped me a lot in improving my italian. We are still exchanging the ocassional text to each other and Emanuella is good fun, same as Gabriella which was my favourite tutorial at the school. I've had 4 private lessons. 3 with Serena & 1 with Gabriella which I must say I wish I'd had more but unfortunately 50 euros for 45min it was too expensive for me.
Ovrerall I have done all my homework, I have learnt some Italian but it all comes together with practice.
I am glad to have been there & the locazione of the school suite everyone not heard anybody complaining about anything at all.
Simone is a fantastic lady and so her lovely colleague I had discounts at the beach and for renting my bici, eccellente service!
Mi dispiace ma è più facile scrivere in inglese così tanto

"I liked to speak Italian more and more"

Linus Müller, student from Switzerland

The teachers are competent and feel that they like to work in this school.
The climate in the school is relaxed and cheerful.
The lessons are interesting, I learned a lot, even in private lessons.
The activities (Visit in Pisa, Luca and a plate of spaghetti) were very funny.
Even the secretary is very kind and willing to help.
The decor and the school is simple, everything is a bit old but with charm.

"Perfect holidays in Tuscany"

Joanna Waśko, student from Poland

I liked the location of the school. Most of the teachers were really good, except for the teacher of the conversation classes - those ones were boring. I liked the activities organised by school, especially the trips and dinners on the beach. The staff in the school was really friendly and helpful. Housing was good as well. The apartment was nice and well-equipped, also well-located.

I liked my class and the teachers were super. Alexandra and Annalisa were very good teachers. The location was old, but good.
The seats are a little small.

Homestays are carefully selected and offer students the opportunity to learn more about the local culture in a comfortable setting while studying Italian in Viareggio. These homes are often between 5-20 minutes away from the school by walking. Families usually offer affordable meal plans that allow you to sample the local cuisine. If you have special requests or diet restrictions (because of religion or health reasons), please let us know in advance. Students must be 16 years old and older.

In selecting host families, we do not look for luxury and comfort in the material sense but for Italian families who appreciate receiving foreign students. Additionally, the word "family" should not be taken too literally, as a family can be "traditional" with children, a single parent or a childless couple who take in students because they enjoy the company.
