A historic university town, Modena is located in Emilia-Romagna, a north-central region of Italy stretching over a fertile plane and flanking the Apennine Mountains. With its 200,000 inhabitants, it is both tranquil and lively, a place where modernity and tradition meet and engage comfortably with one another.

The people who live here are open and friendly: in the stores or on the street you will always find someone more than willing to chat with you. Unlike better-known Italian cities that appear on every tourist’s itinerary, Modena offers you the chance to hear Italian spoken in every corner.

 

Since 1998, the school offers courses to students of all ages and all nationalities, as well as a rich variety of activities during students’ free time.

It is located right in the historic center of Modena. Its classrooms, decorated with eighteenth-century frescoes, are merely a point of departure from which students will discover the everyday rhythms of this unique, beautiful, and extremely liveable city.
