I just spent two wonderful weeks at La Cultura Italiana and am eager to plan my next trip. I have studied the language for more than six years and was ready for a full immersion experience, which the team at Cultura Italiana provided in spades. The placement test that Paola provided ahead of time was a great tool for putting me in the right level and my teacher, Antonio, was knowledgeable, patient, and kind. He customized the lessons to students in the class (two of us my first week, three of us the second) and his methods of teaching new material and extending previous lessons were very clear and helpful. (I have been a teacher for 20 years, so know teaching talent when I see it. ) Everyone on staff was friendly and engaging. The organized outings in the afternoons were also wonderful and our guide, Roberto, was fantastic. He is super knowledgeable, very patient, and has a great sense of humor. Each location was charming and fascinating. My only regret is that I didn't extend my stay another week!
