Italian Language Courses in Turin

Contact Our School

L'Italiano Porticando, Turin:
Founded in 2005, L'Italiano Porticando is a friendly Italian language school in Turin, teaching exclusively the Italian language and culture to foreigners. We aim to be a cut above ordinary language schools in Turin and to provide a specialized centre and point of reference for those who want to study the Italian in Turin. Turin is in a city well-known as an industrial centre, but little-known by tourists. Turin has, however, an incredible artistic and cultural legacy to offer to those who love Italy, its language and its culture.

Our Team - Highly Experienced Professional Teachers:

The school is managed by its founders - Laura Faussone, Caterina Costanzo and Rosaria Costanzo. The three partners joined their long experience and their abilities in teaching the Italian language, culture and history to foreigners in order to give life to a project which at that time was new in Piedmont: the possibility to experience the Italian language and culture in a destination which is not typical for foreigners as, for example, Rome, Florence, Siena or Venice.

The school's teachers are selected with great care according to their education and experience as teachers for Italian language and culture for foreigners. All teachers are native speakers, have a university degree, and are highly motivated and experienced in supporting foreign students in their first meeting with Italy and the Italian language.

The school's teaching method:

Photo of Italian Language Courses in TurinThe teaching method used by L'Italiano Porticando is the direct communcative teaching method. Italian is the only language spoken at school from the first day.

Our teachers are experts in teaching Italian to foreigners and so there is no need for using other languages to bridge language gaps or to communicate with students. this is true for all levels, from beginners to advanced.

Teaching materials - mainly developed by the school - are chosen and created to stimulate free conversation and to simulate real communication situations. Class activities are designed to give the student all necessary tools to handle daily life situations and social interaction in Italy.

Though the communication ability is fundamental, the classes leave room also for grammar excercises and for excercises on written and spoken language. Many original texts of various kinds, songs, films, documentaries help the student to improve all language abilities.

The classes are complemented by extra-curricular activities organized by the school in the afternoon, allowing students to put into practise what they have learnt during their morning classes.
