Living and learning Italian in Rome: the guide for international students

Rome is a city that has always attracted travelers and students from all over the world. Its cosmopolitan character has roots in antiquity and still today continues to fascinate for its contradictions: imposing monuments next to quiet alleys, elegant neighborhoods and popular areas, modern atmospheres that coexist with a millenary history.

Those who arrive for the first time are struck by the variety of experiences that the capital offers. It is enough to stroll through the historic center, cross a local market, or stop in a café to understand that Rome is not just a place to visit, but an environment to live in. Even those who have lived here for years continually rediscover its charm: a sunset at the Pincio, a walk along the Tiber, or a simple chat in the piazza can turn into unforgettable memories.

For international students, Rome has an added value: learning Italian here means practicing it every day, in real and spontaneous contexts.

Our school

The Scuola Leonardo da Vinci, located between Piazza Navona and Castel Sant’Angelo in an elegant 17th-century palace, offers a point of reference for those who want to deepen their knowledge of the language in a multicultural and stimulating environment. The lessons are led by qualified teachers and take place in classrooms where people from all over the world share the same passion for Italian culture. It is not uncommon for lasting friendships to be born in the classrooms, which then continue outside the school in front of a pizza, during a trip, or simply while exploring together the wonders of the city.

Studying in Rome, however, is not limited to what happens in the classroom. The city itself becomes a great open-air school: every encounter, every trip, every moment of daily life is an opportunity to practice, discover new expressions, and feel part of a community.

Living here means learning a language, of course, but also immersing yourself in a culture, making friends, and growing on a personal level. Rome is not a city that can be fully understood, and perhaps this is precisely its secret. But for those who choose to experience it and study Italian in its streets, the experience becomes something that goes beyond words: a memory that stays with you forever.
