I am a brazilian and came here with the objective to learn Italian. I arrived here with no knowledge at all of the Italian language, and after those 3 months I am very satisfied with the level C1 I reached thanks to the very well prepared teachers, to the cultural activities the school offers every afternoon, and to the break time, where we go together with all of the students and teachers to a cafe, to practise what we learned and to socialize (one of the moments of the class that I most like because we bond and create a family like vibe!). The price of the school is high, but after taking the leap and studying here I can say with no doubts that it was worth every penny. O thing that helps a lot is the tutor that is present every afternoon in the school. The tutor helps us with the exercises and rework any specific parts of the grammatics that we may have difficulty on upon request... The staff is incredible, the teachers as well as the administrators are really friendly and reliable. They are active on our requests and ideas that we may have and always ready to help us (even with finding a place to stay here in Bologna). In a general point of view, I would say that: regardless of the price (the only point it was difficult, for me at least, to handle since I am a student and yet don't have a fix income) the experience in Madrelingua is excellent and that if we do make good use of everything they offer, our learning curve suffers a biiig deviation upwards, we learn a lot and fast. I recommend it for anyone that wishes to learn Italian!

I’m having a hard time coming up with enough positive adjectives to describe the teachers (and administrators) at Madrelingua. They are kind, funny, enthusiastic, supportive, concerned, well-trained …. You get the idea. How they maintain all of this day after day, year after year—I’ve studied at Madrelingua three times—is a wonder. At Madrelingua, students learn by doing. All instruction, in fact all interaction, inside and outside of class, is in Italian, from the first buongiorno in the morning, through la pausa at a nearby bar for coffee, to the last a domani in the afternoon. Testing, if it occurs at all, occurs implicitly. Students advance to new groups as their abilities to converse in Italian improve. There is none of the anxiety and pressure often associated with the traditional classroom. As if excellent teaching were not enough, Madrelingua is housed in a gorgeous, be-frescoed set of rooms in the center of one of Italy’s most beautiful cities. Bologna’s happy escape (for now) from mass tourism means that students can practice their growing language skills with the Bolognese, mostly glad to engage with the occasional foreigner learning to speak Italian. The experience of studying a new language as an adult can be alternately joyous and frightening. It’s a joy to understand and be understood in a language not yet your own. It’s scary to try. The teachers and administrators at Madrelingua do everything possible to keep the experience joyous.
Excellent school with fun and professional teachers who go out of the way to meet your individual needs. I only spent one week there but from the first day I felt very comfortable and relaxed, both essential components for language learning. I plan on going back next year. Bravo Madrelingua!
Eficiente, criativa, acolhedora e muito generosa com seus alunos, Parabéns!
è la seconda volta che frequento un corso di inglese in questa scuola, e in entrambe le occasioni sono rimasto positivamente colpito dalla professionalità degli insegnanti e dalla qualità delle lezioni. Mi piace anche molto la flessibilità dell'offerta che mi permette di frequentare a seconda delle mie esigenze. Ambiente molto friendly e personale gentilissimo!
Ottima esperienza!!! Sono tanti anni che mia figlia frenquenta i corsi di inglese di Madrelingua e siamo contentissini. Non so come vengano scelti e formati gli insegnanti che sono tutti di altissimo livello. Anche l'atmosfera (molto friendly) è davvero piacevole. Consiglio a tutti un corso a Madrelingua!!!!!!
