TESTIMONIALS

Thank you for a wonderful experience here in Verbania! I really enjoyed my time and am very grateful for the teachers and the organization of my learning. I believe that I have learned much and would recommend this school to anyone, thanks again!

PATRICK ERNST, Fort Wayne South Bend (USA), summer 2023

Thank you for your help this summer; it was a pleasure getting to know you and meeting you at the Chiostro Hotel. The Italian school has given me a good level of Italian. At times it was difficult to tell where my teachers were starting from, because I didn't take a placement test at the beginning of the lessons.

NATHAN LEDOUXProvidence (USA), August 30, 2024

Thank you for another fantastic year! Licia and Giuse were wonderful. I hope to see you all again!

ANTHONY MARCELLI,Cincinnati (Ohio, USA), August 2023 – August 2024

I was at the school for 5 days, and my teachers did a great job. They were very thorough. I liked how Virginia used a quiz to determine what topics to study.
We worked a lot on the past absolute (passato remoto), and now I can recognize it in writing. It is a good school, and if it had been possible, I would have continued for another week.

NICHOLAS CHAPMANHartford (USA), July 19, 2024

The program was superb! I really liked my teachers. I had some difficulty understanding the grammar points. In my opinion, the dedication of my teachers is obvious and shows the quality of the school. Thank you very much!

SAMUEL HILL Richmond (USA), July 2024

Thank you so much for all these weeks! We are so grateful for your kindness; you welcomed us with all your heart! It was a great experience and a real pleasure for us! We will certainly remember it, and we hope to remember the Italian too!

MARTIN DOBERCleveland (USA), September 22, 2023

I really enjoyed my time learning Italian in Verbania. I thought that my tutors were very helpful, and most of the short comings in my language learning are mine! The only thing I would have preferred for the lessons would be more time between lessons.

NATHAN SCHEIDECKERHelena, Montana (USA), September 1, 2023

My lessons were very helpful in refreshing my Italian and improving it. Both Ilaria and Arianna were very professional and kind teachers.
