The Italian language was infact born in Tuscany and the Pisan accent is considered by many to be 'il piu bello italiano del mundo', making the city the perfect destination to learn Italian. Although the Pisa is most famous for its leaning tower, you will find that the city itself has so much more to offer than just its most famous attraction.

Aside from the Piazza dei Miracoli there are many other interesting places in Pisa which are worth a visit including the Chiesa della Spina and the tower of Guelfa, from which you’ll have a breathtaking view over the city. Pisa's Marina di Pisa and Tirrenia distrcts also have various wonderful beaches where you can relax and enjoy your free time. During June, Pisa holds several traditional festivals which students can enjoy, including the Luminara festival on June 16th in which more than 10,000 candles are lit along the river Arno at sunset. On the last sunday of June, the Gioco del Ponte (Game of Bridge) event is staged, which includes a battle between two neighbourhoods of the city over Pisa's main bridge. During your time learning Italian in Pisa, you’ll have the opportunity to enjoy delicious Italian pastas and the traditional Mediterranean food (olive oil, fish and fresh vegetables).

    Student's View

    I lived in Pisa for three months, and it really was a great experience. I felt at home from the beginning and it´s incredible how familiar the school feels from the moment you set foot in the place. I learned a lot of Italian with the perfect combination of grammar and conversation. The teachers and the people in the office were very helpful and did everything to establish a nice relationship between them and the students. I also had a great time during the guided tours, the pizza dinners and the excursions to close cities like Lucca and Florence (just 12 kilometres).
