About Program

Istituto Galilei from 1985 offers a unique language learning environment where students are able to learn Italian at their own pace. The school's highly trained teachers tailor an individual program and a course of study for each student base on their level of Italian, age, motivation and background. Another great advantage of this approach is that since the lessons are individual students can begin and end their studies at a time convenient without having to follow a class' schedule.

Apart from the academic learning if you choose to take a course at Istituto Galilei you will have the chance to explore many aspects of Italian culture as well as travel in and around Florence. The city itself is a lovely destination for people of all ages as it offers cultural and historical trips as well as fun evenings.

THE best Italian language course

A native Russian speaker, I have studied various foreign languages and know the difference between an ordinary school and an exceptional one. When I decided to embark on Italian, I did a thorough research and identified Istituto Galilei as a language school unlike all others - and proved to be right! Istituto Galilei is geared towards adult learners who are motivated to come to grips with Italian within a tight time frame, regardless of whether they need the language skills for business or pleasure, and provides them with the perfect means for achieving this goal. The combination of their tailored approach, individual classes, unique immersion method, focus on immediate application of the learned material in a natural setting and fantastic teachers make Istituto Galilei truly stand out among other language schools. I would highly recommend it to anyone who cares about an efficient and highly enjoyable investment of their time in learning to speak one of the most beautiful languages in the world.

My experience in Firenze

i heard this school in Istanbul at italian language course. i stayed 3 weeks and enjoyed every minute of it. Studying in Florence is a great experience, the school team is very nice, helpful. Their assistance is too important during the stay. By the way Florence is a charming city.
also you can go outside together with your teacher and having your lesson in a library, or in a restaurant which is helping a lot to develop your conversation.
I am recommending Istituo Galileo Galilei to everybody.

What would you improve about this program?
I think working about -writing in italian- is important.it must be compulsory.

Learning Italian in Florence

I decided to study Italian because my family has Italian origins.
It has been a while that I was thinking about a trip to Italy so I thought it would be great to combine studying and traveling. When I was looking for language schools I found the Galilei Institute which is right in the center of Florence. I chose this school because I had the possibility to get a personalized course and this way I could have classes in the morning, still having plenty of time to get around in the afternoon.
Studying in Florence has been a great experience and the school staff was really nice, helping me to get around and telling me the best places to visit.
As for the course, in three weeks I really learned a lot. I had an individual course which was the best choice I could ever make as I had the full attention of my teacher.
I really recommend this school to everyone who wants to learn Italian and to those who need to improve their language skills.
