School description

Our school is located on the corner of Via Roma, opposite the harbour and a short walk from the bus and train station. The school occupies the fifth floor of a historic building and has 10 classrooms, an internet lounge, a relaxation room, a projection room and a recording studio. The bright, spacious location, with a spectacular view of the port of Cagliari, is equipped with air conditioning and wi-fi.

Upon leaving the school, you will find yourself in the heart of the multicultural neighbourhood of La Marina, full of welcoming bars and restaurants where you can have an aperitif and enjoy the typical local cuisine.
During your stay in Cagliari you can count on the many services offered by One World. Here are some:

Internet access and free wi-fi: In the hours when the school is open, from 9am to
6pm, you can use our computers to access the internet or connect to Wi-Fi with your laptop, smartphone or tablet.

Leisure activities and tourist assistance: every week you will find a new leisure activities programme for our students. You can request detailed information about costs, days and times directly in the reception or by e-mail prior to your arrival. You can also contact us if you need help planning your travel itineraries in Cagliari and Sardinia: we will be happy to suggest you all the places you should not miss.

Accommodation search: If you wish, the school can arrange accommodation for you. We can organise your study holiday with an Italian family, in a B&B, a hotel, a hostel, a shared room or a private apartment.

Transfer service to and from the airport: if necessary, we can arrange a transfer for you to and/or from Cagliari-Elmas airport, at a cost of 30 € each way.

Certificate at end of course: At the end of the course you will be presented with a certificate stating the level and the duration of the course you have just completed.
Our teaching is based on the communicative approach and emphasises the importance of interaction between students and between students and the teacher. Through this approach we create a learning path focusing on the unique characteristics of each student and we work on the development of effective and useful language and communication skills from the very first lessons.

You will not learn mechanically and theoretically; you will practice a lot and very soon you will be able to improve your language skills and feel confident and ready to face any real life communication challenge.

"Cagliari is an interesting place to learn!"

Roger Stone, student from USA

The staff were always cheerful and helpful. My teacher, Giulia, was very sweet and always patient and helpful. The classes were small so there was a lot of attention. I especially liked the activities, the sailboat trip and the visit to the archaeological sites. My favorite thing was Elvira and her cooking classes. She welcomes you into her own home and teaches you to handmake all sorts of pastas. She is enthusiastic and just wonderful to work with. Afterwards you sit down to dinner with her and her husband Valentino and have dinner as if you were part of the family.
