Raquel Mera Álvarez – 16th October 2023

Experiencia inolvidable; un buen servicio y trato muy amable. Desde la agencia se preocuparon por mi primera impresión del curso que había seleccionado así como por cada aspecto del proceso de inscripción y la estancia, acompañándome en cada momento. Si bien es cierto que la información de la página web me dejó con algunas dudas, todas fueron solucionadas a traves del correo de contacto.El alojamiento no podría haber sido mejor; mi anfitriona Valentina fue muy cercana y acogedora. En cuanto al curso (dibujo a lápiz y carboncillo) estoy muy contenta también. Las clases fueron personalizadas a mis gustos y nivel de aprendizaje. La profesora Francesca hacía las clases no sólo instructivas sino también entretenidas, con un ambiente de trabajo que me hacía desear volver al día siguiente.En definitiva, sin duda lo recomendaría.

Expérience inoubliable ; bon service et traitement très amical. L’agence s’est occupée de ma première impression sur le cours que j’avais choisi ainsi que de tous les aspects du processus d’inscription et du séjour, en m’accompagnant à tout moment. S’il est vrai que les informations figurant sur le site web m’ont laissé quelques doutes, tous ont été résolus grâce à l’e-mail de contact, l’hébergement n’aurait pas pu être meilleur ; mon hôte Valentina a été très sympathique et accueillante. Quant au cours (dessin au crayon et au fusain), j’en suis également très satisfaite. Les cours étaient personnalisés en fonction de mes goûts et de mon niveau d’apprentissage. L’enseignante Francesca a rendu les cours non seulement instructifs mais aussi divertissants, avec une atmosphère de travail qui m’a donné envie de revenir le lendemain, et je le recommande sans hésiter.

Desenhar sempre foi minha paixão e, quando meus pais me deram esse curso como presente de formatura, mal podia esperar pelo dia em que viajaria para a Itália. Uma vez lá, tudo o que posso dizer é que não queria que acabasse. Florença é um sonho, o curso foi incrível, conheci muitas pessoas adoráveis, tanto na escola quanto no apartamento que dividi com outros alunos. Obrigado Federica e toda a equipe da Studiainitalia pelo apoio e atenção. Vem me visitar em Melbourne? Arrivederci!

Le dessin a toujours été ma passion et lorsque mes parents m’ont offert ce cours comme cadeau de fin d’études, j’étais impatiente de partir en Italie. Une fois sur place, je ne peux que dire que je ne voulais pas que cela se termine. Florence est un rêve, les cours ont été extraordinaires, j’ai rencontré tant de personnes charmantes à l’école et dans l’appartement que j’ai partagé avec d’autres étudiants.

Drawing has always been my passion and when my parents gave me this course as a graduation present, I could not wait for the day in which I would travel to Italy. Once there, all I can say is that I did not want it to end. Florence is a dream, the course was amazing, I met many lovely people both at the school and in the flat that I shared with other students. Thank you Federica and all the team at Studiainitalia for your support and attention. Come visit me in Melbourne. Arrivederci!
