"My talking improved a lot: i dare to speak Italian to Italians now!"

Hedda Van Raalte, student from Netherlands

We talked a lot. It was a pity we lacked some written grammar.
The excursions were very good, also the cooking lesson was a lot of fun.

"Althoug I had just one week of lessons, I feet I have learned a lot."

Lynn Grant, student from Switzerland

It was my first time at Istituto Venezia and I'm very happy to have discover that school. It is perfectly located, not too far from Academia bridge. I had just done one week of lessons, but it was a great review and learning experience for me. We were a small group, some students have been there for three weeks. At first I thought I will not be able to follow or catch up, but it was a good level for me. The lessons focus on oral, but we still had lessons with grammar, which we could practice after.
The teacher was well organized and proposed different activities for enhance our learning experience. I had an hour lesson one on one with a teacher, this was very helpful to practice and to verify my comprehension.

"Tres belle expérience dans un cadre exceptionnel"

Maria Esnault, student from France

Mon mari et moi-même nous avons réservé 7 h de cours de conversation italienne privés en couple. Nous sommes tombés sur Francesco, un excellent jeune professeur d’italien qui s’est adapté parfaitement à nos besoins et à notre niveau. Les cours étaient à la fois profonds, entraînants , efficaces et plaisants et notre niveau d’italien est nettement amélioré malgré le temps restreint. Nous remercions de tout cœur et nous recommandons à 100%. L’école a organisé également une matinée conviviale avec une conférence sur la journée de la libération et la fête de San Marco le 25.4. ou nous étions invités.

"I loved my time in Venice"

Tereza Okruhlicová, student from Slovakia

The classes were very helpful, the teachers always nice. I lived in campus for a week and then two weeks with a host, both experiences were great. The school was close to where I lived. I honestly think that I never had to walk anywhere for more than 15 or 20 minutes. I picked the best time to visit the city as I got to see the Regata Storica and the Venice Film Festival as well. Overall my experience in Venice was the best I could have hoped for and I hope to be back soon.

"The school used current teaching methodologies to support and advance student apprehension and language acquisition"

Margaret Ripley, student from USA

The classes were a size that supported group interaction as well as group pairing of activities. The facilities were adequate. It was a relaxed class atmosphere and enjoyable to have a break where we could go together to the local Plaza. The teachers were very supportive. The afternoon activities were varied and enjoyable. I would take the class again.

"It was great."

Bénédicte MAIRE, student from France

The school is very well located. The classrooms are agreeable. The teachers are following a very interesting method, based on communication. I really improved. The city was quite crowded but some quarters were really quiet. I first had a bedroom in a really busy, touristic and noisy place. When I asked to change lodgings, the school immediately found another room corresponding to my needs. The cultural program was, although interesting, a bit disappointing : I expected more activities (visits of museums or palaces). Nevertheless, the school offered interesting walks fest days, which was very nice of them. I do recommend very warmly Istituto Venezia.

"Excellent experience with very competent and motivated teachers in a nice environment"

ANNE -F. A, student from Switzerland

I visited the Instituto Venezia twice, for two short time periods (2 x 2 weeks ) and took private courses.

On both occasions, I was very fortunate to benefit form excellent and motivated teachers. Both were very competent, very attentive to my needs, very motivated as well as creative in their teaching. Their attitude was supportive and facilitated learning. Thanks to them I have made very good and rapid progress in my language skills and they have helped me to identify how to improve my Italian with a genuine interest for my needs.

I am also very grateful to the school for having organized these courses in a rather short time notice.

The school building is a bit old fashion in style but well adapted to teaching. I appreciated the non casual, welcoming atmosphere. Extra- courses activities are organized for the students.

The school is ideally situated in the centre of Dorsoduro, Venezia. I can warmly recommend it.

"To live a new life in a new city was a great experience"

Mara Mallien, student from Switzerland

In the classes we had a lot of fun and the teacher tried to involve all of the students and looked after the slower ones. But I think it was really difficult to teach us, because all the students were on a different level, and for me personally it was a lot too easy. My grammar skills were a lot higher than what we did in class together, but because I was there only for a week it was not absolutely necessary to change the class. All in all, the teachers tried it and I understand that it wasn't easy. But if you really want to learn the language I think maybe individual lessons would be a good idea.
The location of the school is very good because coffee shops, bars, restaurants and supermarkets are near by. It's a good place to meet up with your friends and from there you can easily walk to every place you want.
Every day I had to walk twenty minutes to school and sometimes that was a bit unpractical, but it was totally fine and the walk every morning wakes you up :).
The housing was also very good. I lived in an apartment with a lady and a young man. They were really nice and I also liked the apartment a lot. I had a big room for myself, and I could come and go at any time I wanted.

"Rewarding experience"

André SANCHEZ, student from France

I registered over a period of 4 weeks in order to complete a complete level.
The first week is a review of the previous level which I think is important if you haven't practiced for a long time, which was my case.
The method of evaluation of the level done beforehand via Zoom (covid obliges!) seemed to me to be efficient because it was representative of my previous knowledge and I felt globally in phase with the other students.
I had 2 different teachers during this period who were very pedagogical, cordial, understanding but also demanding about the program to follow. In spite of the unavoidable grammar phase, the exercises in class are always fun (we even sang!) and a large place is left for discussion, which is the most important thing. The average number of students per class was 5 and the basic principle is to always use the Italian language to communicate with each other. The teachers make sure that there is always a round table during these exercises so that everyone can speak and also ask for further explanations. There is even evening homework with review the next day! but always in a good mood... The rhythm of the classes in the morning from 9h to 10h30 and 11h to 12h30 is balanced and leaves half an hour to drink a coffee and get to know each other better.
For personal reasons I couldn't attend the afternoon activities but I consulted them on the notice board and saw that they were diversified and often in line with the events in Venice.
For the same reasons, I found accommodation on my own.
Finally, all the supervising staff (such as the secretariat and the coordinating professor) is really attentive.
I am thinking of repeating this experience next year after having "digested" everything I learned this time.

"So helpful and fun"

Karima Higgo, student from UK

The classes where a perfect size and the teachers were so helpful throughout the two weeks. Istituto Venezia is very central which is amazing. The lessons were so much much fun and I learnt so much in the short space of time. The accommodation was clean and everything was new, it gets cleaned once a week which is great.

"The teachers were the best thing about the school for me, all of them very dedicated and great fun"

Nynke Hendriks, student from Netherlands

I loved the location of the school on the campo santa margarita, it was a lovely walk from the Santa Marta residenza every morning, the teachers were all lovely and great. I participated in many of the after-school activities with Anna and Marina, both of whom were fantastically knowledgeable about Venice, its history, art, culture etc, loved those tours!

One thing I would have liked was easier access to tea and coffee during class, because two hours is a long time and I need beverages.
Also, the first week of January we had 5 hours a day to make up for Monday the 6th of January (public holiday) and it was too much, everyone felt that.

Other than that, I had a fantastic time at the Istituto Venezia throughout January.

Dear Nynke,

we thank you for your positive reply.
I know, the first week was a special one, we wrote in our calendar that there would be 5 hours a day, maybe in the future we will offer a substitute activity replacing classes, like we do on most festive days.

We hope to see you again at school, I will tell teachers you enjoyed your classes and activities in the afternoon too. We are also very happy to see you liked very much the housing in residence Santa Marta.

Have a lovely day :)

"Teachers cannot manage different levels of students in one classroom. The classes are too long without breaks."

Jill Hummelstein, student from USA

The housing was good. The front desk needs to work on their social skills and manners. They were helpful. And sometimes rude.

The first week of school the classes were five hours a day, That’s too long to concentrate or have a good time.

And there needs to be a book and listening and repeat exercises that the student can do at any time.

Dear Jill,

we are sorry to hear that you did not find the classes helpful or interesting, especially when the school direction agreed with your request to convert your group course into an individual one, because you said it was too much. Our teacher Simona did her best to help you with listening and repeating.
Our group courses in the morning are always 4 hours a day, with a break halfway in the morning.
The first week was an exception, we wrote this into our calendar, 5 hours a day for the group course were organized to make up for the lost hours on the National Holiday of Monday, 6th January.

As for front desk/secretary, we are sorry if you felt we were not friendly, we did our best too when you were ill, we called and made a reservation with the doctor for you, looked for the information you asked for.

We are glad you found housing and location beautiful, if you ever change your mind about the school, you will be welcome back. We suggest to maybe book an individual course for the future rather than a group course, so the teacher can focus on what you feel is most important to you.

Best regards,

Elisa Carrer

"Great teachers, made a lot of progress in my language knowledge"

Fruzsina German, student from Poland

.The classes were scheduled according to proper level, I learned something new everyday. Maybe speaking skills were the only part where due to big group, we did not have a lot of opportunity for practice. Otherwise, all parts were useful and worth attending. I would not recommend going there for less than 2 weeks, as one week is not enough to see any progress. Also liked that there were programs everyday after school, I liked that my teachers gave me useful advices on Venice and also shared tradiitons.

"One of the best ones I've had lately."

Josipa Musura, student from Spain

I absolutely loved my classes. Both of my teachers were amazing, very professional and nice to each and every one of us in the group. They made our classes fun and I can honestly say that I learned a lot in one week, regarding both Italian language and culture.
We had several activities organised within the school, I had lot of fun participating in one workshop about Venice culture and society.
As far as the location is concerned, it was 30 min away from my homestay walking, approx 25 min form Piaza di San Marco, which was fine because you're basically in the city center and you can move around easily.

At last, housing. The lady was nice, we didn't talk that much but she completely respected my privacy. My room was pretty nice, the rest of the apartment was ok but a bit old fashioned. Also, it was really cold in Venice that week and it would have been nice to had had an option of heating, because it was also freezing cold at home.

And one last thing, the internet. There was no wifi, the lady offered me her modem and gave me one cable to connect to the Internet, which I did, but it didn't work most of the time. I talked to the lady about it, but she told me that it worked with other people and that was it. She didn't even try to solve the problem. For future occasions, I would suggest to try to deal with this issue as the Internet these days is very much essential for everybody abroad.

Dear Josipa,

we thank you for your message and we appreciate your review. We will try to talk to Marina and see if she is willing to switch to wi-fi system, because we know the importance of being connected when you travel (even though many of the ladies hosting our students have not yet realized about this, sorry!).

We will try to do our best in finding a more suitable accommodation whenever you wish to come back.
