The strenght of il Sillabo:
A strength of Il Sillabo is its location. Tuscany is overrun with tourists, yet San Giovanni offers a 14th century town centre where one can practice Italian without the competition of demanding tour groups. The Bosi family chose San Giovanni because it is off the beaten path while still offering a setting rich with culture and history. A part of the school itself is housed in the oldest building in town, constructed for noble families in the 1300’s. It overlooks the historic town centre and main piazza. San Giovanni is also easy to reach. San Giovanni is located on the Florence – Rome line, 30 minutes from Florence, 30 minutes from Arezzo and 3 hours from Rome. Siena, Cortona, Orvieto, and other tourist cities are also close by.
WHY IN SAN GIOVANNI VALDARNO?While Florence and Rome crawl with tourists and language schools, little San Giovanni offers a place where students can experience a wealth of culture not found in the souvenir shops. It is an ideal location for a program where students can learn Italian and explore the art and culture that makes Italy so rich.
