"Friendly, only six students per class: plenty of grammar lessons."

Sylvia Scaglia, student from Australia

plenty of grammar lessons and conversazione: I liked that we had two different teachers but it was a shame that one of the teachers obviously preferred the interaction with the one young man... to the detriment of the other 5 students.

I did not see let alone speak with the owner of the school at all. we only had interaction with our two teachers.

"Serious learing in friendly environment."

Rainer Dorn, student from Germany

It was always clear where and when to meet. The course itself was very well adopted on the requirements of the class. We had a lot of fun, we learned about the culture of Palermo. Everyday I became more curious to spent more of my free time in the city. I finished the week happy, sattisfied and with a nice certificate.

"Small but good"

bernard jundt, student from Switzerland

actually (march 2022) the school is very small (only two classes with 2 resp. 4 students). this can be an average (familiar and individual courses) and desaverage in relation to social activities etc. I liked the ambiance.
