Our art school in Florence is characterized by is the care and attention with which staff members treat each and every course participant, coping with their needs and trying to satisfy their expectations. The atmosphere is cheerful and informal. The school is located in the historic centre of Florence, in the neighborhood known as Santo Spirito, where artisans and artists keep working outside the traditional mass-circuits. Santo Spirito still keeps intact its economic and social character. Piazza Santo Spirito is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful squares in the city, as well as a meeting place for Florentines. The school organizes social activities and excursions.

Acabo de realizar un curso de dos semanas en Florencia de gramática, historia del arte y varias lecciones de cocina. Ha sido una experiencia gratificante pero demasiado corta. Creo que mínimo se necesita un mes. Los profesores profesionales y amenos.Buen ambiente en las clases. El curso de historia del arte se imparte directamente delante de las obras y es inmejorable. La profesora sabe trasmitir sus conocimientos, que son muchos, con pasión. Las clases de cocina también me han resultado interesantes y prácticas.Recomiendo a cualquier person que le guste Italia realizar estos cursos.
Muchísimas gracias y felicidades por la estupenda organización del curso. Pudimos escoger los contenidos a la medida y nuestra profesora, Rima, supo hacérnoslo disfrutar al máximo. El alojamiento estaba en una zona inmejorable y la familia que nos acogió fue muy amable.
Ha sido una experiencia genial!
Yo he hecho dos semanas combinando historia del arte y lengua italiana y estoy completamente satisfecha. Tanto por la gestión de StudiainItalia como por las profesoras que allí me he encontrado.
Muchísimas gracias. ¡Seguro repito!
My stay in Florence was absolutely wonderful, I simply loved the course, the way it was delivered and all the information it provided, liked my room and been on good terms with everybody.
Though there have been some problems of communication at some point, the service was all in all just great.
Thank you,
Patricia
El curso de historia del arte con Rima no ha podido ser mejor, ella es encantadora, además de una buenísima profesional que consigue aumentar el interés por el arte, muchísimas gracias por todo y enhorabuena por tan magnifica profesora!

History of Art course was very informative and deep! My husband and I enjoyed it immensely, we became more infirjed about Italian painters, the Medici s and the art scene in Florence during manerism period.
Well done !
He estado una semana y ha sido una experiencia fantástica. Clases muy amenas recorriendo los lugares y museos mas emblemáticos de Florencia. Un especial agradecimiento a Rima , que gracias a sus claras explicaciones me ha hecho valorar todavía más la ciudad y la historia que se esconde tras su arte . Totalmente recomendable
He realizado un curso de dos semanas enfocado en Historia del Arte relacionado con algunos períodos del Renacimiento. Ha sido muy provechoso; una muy buena experiencia y mu ello se debe a los vastos conocimientos, sobre todos los temas que he requerido en forma puntual de parte de mi profesora Rima que se merece un excelente 10. Gracias a ella he aprendido mucho, agregado un montón de novedades a mis conocimientos sobre el tema y he visto las cosas desde un punto de vista distinto, un punto de vista “florentino”. Recomendable 100 x 100.
Fiquei 100% satisfeita com meu curso de História da Arte feito no Studia in Italia em março de 2019, em Florença! Foram duas semanas de aulas em lugares históricos da cidade, em companhia de uma professora altamente competente, gentil e muito bem preparada, onde pude aprender muito mais do que esperava, de forma leve e alegre. Minha hospedagem na casa de uma família italiana foi perfeita, e me proporcionou um progresso significativo no meu vocabulário da lingua italiana. Recomendo fortemente essa experiência incrível!
Uma das melhores semanas em Firenze! Certamente, aconselho a todos esta experiencia! Rima me ensinou muito, e me fez me apaixonar ainda mais por Firenze!!!
Estoy MuY feliz. Rima es una persona increíblemente preparada que sabe los temas a fondo y transmite la información con una pasión contagiosa! He entendido muy bien lo que hemos hablado y tengo muchas ganas de saber más. Los felicito por la profesora tan profesional que tienen!
