Do you feel fed up with your daily routine? Then you should try a new exciting experience abroad. Every year, many students from all over the world decide to have a different experience and learn a foreign language in a foreign country, and more and more young people choose Italy as their favorite destination. Italy in fact, offers a wide range of environments, landscapes, cities where to live for a long term period, for studying the language, for working or just for knowing our wonderful country and culture, rich of traditions and ancient habits and customs. In Italy it is possible to find cosmopolitan and internationally renowned cities like Milan or Rome, or smaller but rich of art and culture towns like Florence or Siena. It is easy to make new friends and know people of different nationalities who want to share such a magnificent experience with other students. It is an occasion which young students have to try at least once in their life. That’s the reason why so many students come to Italy and choose the Italian language school for foreigners Leonardo da Vinci to spend an Academic School Year in Italy and learn Italian language. The Academic School Year or Gap Year course in fact is intended for beginner and elementary students and lasts for 32 weeks, leading to the internationally-recognized AIL (Accademia Italiana di Lingua) diplomas (DILI-Intermediate and DALI-Advanced). By attending this course, students will gradually learn Italian language, but they will also discover and deepen every aspect of Italian culture, from art and culture, to economy and fashion. The course is divided essentially in two parts: the first part of the program is concentrated on Italian language preparation and grammar, where students will attend 480 Italian standard course lessons taught in Italian from the very start and 80 lessons to prepare them for the AIL diplomas, whereas the second one is focused on art, history, civilization, business and fashion subjects. At the end of the course, we will ask you to write a final essay on a topic of your own choosing related to Italian culture (art, history or business), with the help of our school library and of a personal tutor (10 lessons). We remind all the students that the Italian language schools for foreign students Leonardo da Vinci are located in the most beautiful and charming cities in Italy: Rome, Milan, Florence and Siena and students will have the chance to attend the Academic School Year courses in all the school locations.
