Teaching method: our courses are aimed to develop speaking, listening, reading and writing skills and are carefully structured to develop your fluency and accuracy. At Accademia del Giglio we use a wide variety of real-life material such as, tv programmes, newspapers, magazine extracts, and ourblog articles.
Schedule: Italian language courses take place from Monday to Friday, from 9:30am to 1:30pm (20 hours a week) or from 9:30am to 11:30am (10 hours per week).
Each student is encouraged to take a short test before starting a course so that his/her language needs can be ascertained, and it can be ensured that they are placed in a group of a similar level of ability and knowledge. On completion of a course the student will be awarded an attendance certificate by the AdG. There are seven levels: beginner, elementary, pre intermediate, intermediate, upper intermediate, advanced, proficiency, according to the European Language Portfolio.
The classes and the school: our classes are very small (max. 7 people) and are held in a peaceful area of the city centre. We feel that small class sizes are essential to facilitate the learning process and ensure that focus is placed on the learning requirements of the individual student, and on helping him/her to overcome any difficulties in a friendly environment, whilst the range of courses on offer allows the student to adapt the programme to their individual needs.
Leisure activities: to supplement the cultural and language programme our students can take advantage of a variety of leisure activities organized each week by our teachers, including watching films, evenings out and visits to the main Florentine museums, parties at school as well as day trips to the Tuscan medieval towns such as Pisa, Siena, Lucca, etc.

I do alot of African Paintings. I love works from Italian masters. Learning Italian would be a good starting point to study art in Italy. Most of us African artists ignore still life but our culture is full of very interesting and amazing still life subject. I’m starting to take greater interest in stilllife with a few projects in the works.
