About
It all begins with the Language Pledge®: a promise to speak only the language you are studying for the duration of your time in the program. This complete linguistic immersion, combined with rigorous classroom learning and scores of in-language cocurricular activities, helps you achieve dramatic breakthroughs, no matter what your proficiency level.
The Italian School offers a teacher-to-student ratio that is one of the lowest in academia, presenting you with a unique opportunity to acquire and expand your skills under the constant guidance of some of the world’s most experienced and dedicated instructors. Daily contact with your teachers extends beyond the classroom to include drop-in office hours, discussion groups, and lectures. Between times, you'll join them in organized cocurricular activities—including
Italian dance, games, cooking, and bocce—each designed to help you build new vocabulary while developing cultural fluency.
Summer after summer, the Italian School continues to deliver on its reputation for combining rigorous expectations with unmatched support. That’s why many of our students—from researchers and scholars to teachers and travelers—return to the School again and again.
