Istituto Venezia

We offer a wide variety of courses, focused for the different profiles of our students. We handle all levels of language according to the CEFR. Our courses are available throughout the year. Students can choose one, or combine several different solutions, according to their needs.

We have students from all over the world and of all ages. It is impossible to find a single nationality in our classrooms. We encourage the use of Italian not only in lessons, but also in many other activities outside of the class, during daily Venetian life or during social and cultural activities organized in the afternoons. The school is located in the historic center of Venice, in a century-old building with a large terrace located near the famous Piazza Campo Santa Margherita. This is a very important meeting place for students and Italians; you can go shopping or take a break at any of the local bars.

Since 2005, we also offer Italian language courses in Trieste; a beautiful town located between the mountains and the sea, near the Slovenian border. In this natural landscape it is possible to enjoy the local culture, enjoy a good wine and practice speaking Italian seaside. In both our schools in Venice and Trieste we share the same philosophy: a rich culture in perfect locations offering personalized, high quality and efficient language courses.

Istituto Venezia is recognized by ASILS (Association of Schools of Italian as a Foreign Language). Through this international platform we guarantee a long-range exchange with conversational practice. The teaching methodology is based on a fully communicative approach that promotes and encourages the active participation of students. The main goal is to develop oral and written communication skills. We have a great variety of up-to-date materials of real communication, introducing students to Italian culture and society. Classes are always in Italian, ensuring a fast and lasting progress. The quality of teaching and educational materials is very important to us. For this reason, members of our team receive specific training as teachers in the ITALS (Italian as a Second Language) Program at Ca ‘Foscari University in Venice. This is continuously updated and expands their skills and knowledge. Our team is always ready to help, encourage and develop the best methods for each student. We are a great family; we organize daily meetings to manage the different departments in order to deliver excellent teaching. At Istituto Venezia you are our main focus.
