The
Italian Language School in Genoa
Welcome
to the website of Scuola Tricolore! An Italian Language school in
Genoa that offers Italian language courses to foreigners. Scuola Tricolore
is situated in Genoa in Italy. A beautiful
city located in a beautiful area (Liguria), 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
teaching and 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 language 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, thanks to
its location on the coast. Genova has all the facilities and services of a city,
but still has the traits of a village. Its close proximity to France, the Alps
and to cultural centres such as Florence, Milan and Pisa add to Genoa a great
appeal as a place to visit. Genova has a rich cultural history
and boasts having the biggest medieval city centre in Europe,
recently included in the Unesco list of protected heritage. By European standards
the cost of living in Genoa is affordable and provides great value.
At
Scuola Tricolore we understand that students do not only come to Italy 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. Click on the hyperlink if you would like to read more about Genoa,
its history, food or local customs, or if you desire more information about
the region Liguria.
Since
Scuola Tricolore recognises 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. Do
