Accommodation

The best way to learn a language is to practice as much as you can, that is why we provide our students with the chance of living in a real Italian family in the center of Florence. All our Italian host families have been carefully selected: we have known them all for years, and they are all trustworthy, reliable, and welcoming.

It’s the perfect opportunity for your children to easily experience the day-to-day life of an Italian family, feeling looked after and supported, while also having the chance to grow and mature by going abroad by themselves.

Reviews

  1. Charles, France

    My favorite part of school was the trips in the afternoon with a teacher.
    Florence is an amazing place to study. I really enjoyed renting bikes and riding all over.

  2. David, Belgium

    A nice experience from beginning to end. I advanced my Italian skill to the point that I can have conversations with Italians I meet, and this adds a lot to my travel enjoyment.

  3. Clare, United Kingdom

    The teaching I received at Europass was of very high quality and our teacher often provided us with extra-linguistic and cultural facts related to the topic. The atmosphere in the class was always relaxed and everyone was encouraged to talk and share their opinion.
