L'Italiano Porticando is Turin's first school teaching exclusively Italian to foreigners. At L’Italiano Porticando the students will find an inviting and friendly atmosphere which will allow them to feel at ease and to learn easily the Italian language and to get to know many aspects of daily life in this town and region. In fact, the lessons are held by experienced and motivated mother-tongue teachers, all university graduates, in a communicative method. The method aims at motivating the students to participate actively in their lessons and extra-curricular activities. The students will have the possibility to join cooking lessons, to take part in wine tastings and to walk with their teachers under the 18 kilometres of Turin's arcades, where they can have a rest at one of the many historical cafés, taste the famous "Bicerin" or Turin's delicious chocolates and confectionery, or where they can allow the many elegant "Made in Italy-Shops" to lead them into temptation of shopping. The school also organizes sightseeing tours and visits to museums for those who love history, arts and culture and excursion to the Alps or the lakes (f.ex. to the Lago Maggiore) for those who love nature. The combination of language tuition with extra-curricular activities related to the Piedmont area is the result of the schools conviction that to learn, to know and to become keen on the Italian language it is essential to get to know the many cultural aspects of the place you are visiting. The school, upon request, also provides for accommodation with local families, in apartments, bed and breakfasts or hotels. Why choose L’Italiano Porticando and Turin to learn Italian ? Because for the founders of the school - Caterina, Laura and Rosaria - the student is not only a "number", but somebody to listen to and to look after from the first contact until the end of the course. And because in Turin, with its strategic position between the Alps and the seaside, the student will not run the risk to find himself between masses of tourists, but in a city rich in history, which has preserved through the years its Italian spirit and character. There school offers a) Small group courses b) Standard courses c) Private lessons and from 1 to 4 weeks per level. These are organized for all language proficiency levels. The school proposes a number of Combined courses: a combination of Standard course with additional private lessons, literature, arts, architecture, tango, cinema or business Italian and also CILS exam preparation courses. Furthermore, the students can join the school’s Cultural courses on history, history of arts, cinema, literature, waterpainting, cooking classes and wine and chocolate workshops . For groups, there are Language holiday courses: one-week-courses with a particular "topic", which allow to integrate a cultural holiday with language learning. This is also valid for our Special topic courses like Italian for Gourmets or Christmas in Turin.
