Welcome to Scuola Tricolore! An Italian Language school that offers Italian language courses to non-Italians. Scuola Tricolore is situated in Genoa in Italy. A beautiful city located in a beautiful area, often referred to as the 'flower Riviera'. Thanks to our personal experience as a student and as a teacher in different language schools in Germany, Italy, the Netherlands and Spain, we gained a profound knowledge about the whereabouts of language schools.
Often discovering something was missing or undervalued: Fun and pleasure! In several cases, in fact, language schools focused mainly on teaching and on leisure to a much lesser extent.
Especially in learning, from our experience, we saw personal improvements when, along with traditional learning, students had fun. Fun and pleasure, not just in going out, but also linked to our classes: games, quizzes, role-plays, intercultural exchange and humour. It is our conviction, that fun and pleasure, are strongly connected with personal learning experience, without neglecting the "serious" traits that studying a language implies. This is also the concept of Edutainment or education combined with entertainment.
Scuola Tricolore only employs highly professional teachers that love to teach, like to laugh and have an open horizon.
As a location we chose Genoa: it has a mild climate, which is partly because of its location on the coast. Genoa has all the facilities and services of a city, but still has the traits of a village. Its close proximity to France, the Alps mountain range and to cultural centres such as Florence, Milan and Pisa add to Genoa's appeal as a place to visit. Genoa has a rich cultural history and boasts having the biggest medieval city centre in Europe, recently included in the Unesco list of protected areas. By European standards the cost in Genoa is affordable and provides great value.
At Scuola Tricolore we understand that students do not come to Italy only to study Italian and learn about Italian culture, but they also come to relax, mingle, eat, drink and laugh. Thus, Scuola Tricolore is about studying Italian with lots of fun and interaction in a beautiful area of Italy.
Because we recognise that everybody learns in a different way, has different needs, interests and different backgrounds, we created a flexible system to perceive individual progress and subsequently customise teaching materials in order to strengthen certain areas that need extra attention.
The flexible system allows Scuola Tricolore to customise any individual lesson according to each student's interest or professional background.
The available subjects cover a wide range of topics:
Scuola Tricolore also supports CELI/ CILS training, university certification for the Italian language, and specially customized courses for Erasmus students.
The levels refer to the Council of Europe's "Common European Framework of Reference" and cover all levels from A1 to C2:
