Centro Studi IDEA Verona

"Words can’t describe what an incredible experience I have had at Idea Verona, as well as in my host family home! I am a student at The University of Illinois in the United States, and came to Idea Verona through a study abroad program. Idea Verona has proved to be the perfect fit for me, as well as many other students, because of its unique ability to immerse students into the Italian culture. The classroom structure has helped me to develop sufficient language skills, which in a short time, has allowed me to adequately communicate with locals. The teachers and staff at Idea Verona are very knowledgeable, and have not only expanded my education but have also acted as mentors and friends. Studying at Idea Verona has been a remarkable experience, filled with unforgettable Italian knowledge and memories. I look forward to embarking on another journey at Idea Verona in the near future!!

"Vi ringrazio ancora per la cura e la gentilezza che mi avete dato in questo periodo di studio. Siete anche bravi insegnanti che mi avete corretto bene sull’italiano per cui mi sono migliorata e l’ho imparato felicemente, perciò adesso riesco a scriverti una bella lettera, e sono davvero contenta percheè anche il mio ragazzo mi ha detto dei complimenti, ho più confidenza quando parlo, sbaglio meno e posso comprendere meglio quando qualcuno mi parla, mi sono buttata per impararlo e non ho sprecato il tempo pertanto ho ottenuto quello che voglio.Grazie ancora molto, alla fine vi saluto, buon lavoro, buono studio e buon anno felice!"

"I did not speak Italian prior to spending a semester abroad in Verona, yet I was determined to learn as much of the language as possible during my time thereI began partaking in conversation sessions with a Veronese local named Elisa. We spend time together frequently and I had the opportunity to experience the Verona that she knew; she introduced me to local restaurants, shopping spots, and shared miscellaneous information on Italian culture that I would not have been aware of otherwise. "

"I had a really incredible experience studying at Idea Verona. The quality of the teachers was very impressive and the courses I took were fun and educational. I'll never forget my time here, thanks for an amazing semester!"

"My time here at Idea Verona has been far too quick. Even though I attended this fantastic school for over three months, I felt as if it had only been a moment due to the sheer fact that I was having a blast the entire time! Whether it was learning the Italian language from the enthusiastic instructors or painting a marvelous fresco with the exceptionally skilled painting teacher, I always had a smile on face. Optimism never left my side while at Idea Verona; and this was because the school offered such a great versatility during its courses. In Art History for example, I was not just stuck in the classroom for two hours. I was fortunate to travel to three cities full of Culture and diversity. All in all, the atmosphere of this establishment is incredibly light-hearted due to the lovely faculty and the well structured courses."
