Dear Scuola Leonardo da Vinci,
David Savage New York, NY Dear Scuola Leonardo, Marta Kostyk, Kracow, Poland "Dear Director, as you will see from the enclosed school certificate, our daughter has not only made the best exam in Italian of the whole class but she has also been awarded with the school annual "prix d'excellence". During her short stay at your school she has been able to improve her language skills from absolute beginner to the level required by her new school. Not only, she even got an excellent result. Once again, many thanks to you and your staff! Viva la Scuola Leonardo da Vinci!" University Professor, Lausanne, Switzerland "Excellent. My host family spoke no English. However they were kind, congenial, and attempted to make my stay a pleasant one." Teacher High School, Springfield, MA - USA "I enjoyed the enthusiasm that both the instructors and students showed. The 'extracurricular' activities arranged by the school were very worthwhile." Retired, Saint Paul, MN - USA "The thing I enjoyed most was the language knowledge I gained that allowed me to relate to local people and develop lasting relationships." Inside Sales Representative, Addison, IL - USA "Everything was timely, accurate and complete." Educator, Salisbury, MD - USA "Our experience with individuals whose culture, language and the way of life different from our own was outstanding. Also the opportunity to see our heritage in art and appreciation of history of America's background settlers was overwhelming. Teachers were very good - content & quality excellent - facilities just fine. " Retired, Lilydale, MN - USA "I enjoyed the perfect combination of schooling/learning and free time, vacation. The curriculum of the school was excellently structured, facilitating a rapid learning of the Italian language. My family stay was most conducive to my rapidly picking-up the language. The teachers I had were very good - very much professionals. It was very good to have a grammar lecture followed by a conversation period. The family stay allowed me to live my 2 weeks in Florence as a 'real' Italian. This was probably the highlight of my stay, and was the primary reason I picked up the language as rapidly as I did. It has enriched me personally and has made me more of an 'expanded' person. I hope to return to the same school for additional schooling. This is a testament to my very strong positive feelings about the program. " Teacher, Addison, IL - USA "As usual it has been a pleasure to read the evaluations of the students that attended your schools. Since several years they are among the very best reports we receive from any school in the world we work with." Language Travel Agent, Northern Europe "The school staff did many extra things to acquaint us with local activities. I highly recommend the school. I certainly enjoyed the food. " Student, Lilydale, MN - USA "We had excellent value. Very pleased." Retired, Educator, MD - USA "I am in a better position to advise my students on study abroad programs." High School Counselor, Springfield, MA - USA "The instructors were excellent and approached the students in a good natured positive way. They showed considerable imagination in developing and presenting their material, especially in conversation class." Retired (former Architect), Saint Paul, MN - USA "The conversation portion of the class was most interesting in that we discussed current social and cultural aspects of the 'Italian way of life'!" Inside Sales Representative, Addison, IL - USA "I liked the people at the school, learned a lot, and also enjoyed family dinners with our hostess and other students." Educator, Salisbury, MD - USA "The homestay was probably one of the most valuable and enjoyable of all my experiences." (Florence) "It was interesting being one of the few Americans enrolled. I had the opportunity to meet and become close friends with people from all over the world." (Rome) Student, Hollis Hills, NY - USA "Our experience at the Scuola Leonardo da Vinci was a very growing one for my wife and I... The school was excellent and the staff was extremely professional." Real Estate, Boise, ID - USA "I feel that my experience at the Scuola Leonardo Da Vinci has significantly improved my level of communicating in Italian, and I now feel much more 'marketable'!" English Teacher, New York, NY - USA "Alessandra was a great teacher with a sense of humor - very important. I liked playing games, interviewing other students, and role-playing." Student Political Sciences, Split (Croatia) "The tour of
the Duomo given by Cinzia was outstanding. She took time to explain a
lot, and made the visit fun. Everybody I met at the school was positive
and always tried to be helpful." Banker, Dordrecht (Holland) "There are classes on so many different levels that each student can be placed in a class on the right level.
