student testimonials

“During my Italian language course at the welcoming and friendly l’Acanto School, I was impressed how well the lessons were prepared and how detailed they were. The school provided the right tools to start speaking Italian and it lived up to all my expectations.”

MARIA ELENA A., Personal Assistant, Santiago, Chile,

“My Italian language course at L’Acanto was exciting, fun and taught me a great deal about Italy, its history and culture. The school, located in an elegant building in the historic centre of Mesagne, had a welcoming and comfortable atmosphere. My study holiday at l’Acanto was an enjoyable, rich and unforgettable experience. I stayed in a lovely apartment, organised by the school, which gave me a taste of local culture, community and Italian family life.”

KATIE P., Psychiatrist, Paris, France,

“My experience at L’Acanto fulfilled all my expectations and more. Living with an Italian family I was immediately immersed into the local culture. Classes were held in a casual friendly environment where everyone was able to progress at their own pace. Class material and lessons were a combination of discussions and readings on current events in Italy, be it festivals, holidays, or news together with Italian grammar, music and movies. I found L’Acanto to be a school where one can be assured that everything will be taken care of in a professional, amicable and timely fashion. If there are special requests all one need do is ask.”

“I really enjoyed experiencing Mesagne and the surrounding area. The atmosphere in the school is pleasant, modern, clean and airy. It was the type of experience I wouldn’t have had if I had gone to a larger school. “
