Buona scuola una delle migliori di Firenze riguardo l'insegnamento dell'italiano. Lo staff è molto gentile e disponibile alle richieste degli studenti.

Wat een mooie ervaring is dit geweest...
Gedurende een week heb ik school gelopen bij Koine Center Firenze. Elke dag opnieuw kreeg ik - samen met 4 andere cursisten - een boeiende les. De lessen waren gevarieerd en werden op een duidelijke en boeiende manier gegeven. We hebben uitvoerig kunnen spreken en luisteren naar elkaar onder het toeziend oog van een competent docent. De medecursisten hadden allemaal een andere nationaliteit waardoor het Italiaans als voertaal een must was en dit zowel tijdens als na de les (bij de uitstap of culturele activiteit).
Voor de school was geen enkele vraag teveel. Zij waren tevens mijn aanspreekpunt voor het organiseren van mijn verblijf bij een gastgezin en ook over deze ervaring kan ik enkel lofwoorden spreken.

Ik kijk er nu al naar uit om terug te keren!
Grazie mille Koine Center!

This school is excellent in every respect. I have been attending classes here for several years and the teaching methods and the instructors are incredibly effective. Many times now I have seen beginners arrive here for a three-or-more month stay, who have no prior experience in Italian, and within 6 weeks they are chatting easily with students and instructors. The school is located in an area filled with good restaurants, bars, museums, and close to the great cathedral and piazza of Santa Croce.

In addition the school offers cultural tours twice a week in which you visit places of interest and can further exercise your Italian language skills.

I highly recommend Koine for students at every ability level.

Had a two week intensive language course in November 2019. This was truly great experience. School has amazing location (2 min from Piazza Santa Croce) and the group was quite small (low season) so everyone had enough attention during the lessons. Our teacher Marco was the best! Such a knowledgable and patient person who truly loves his job. Cultural activities after school will allow you to discover Florence places not visible on the standard touristic routs.
The teaching methodology aims at developing your speaking skills so in few days you won't even notice how you start speaking! Definitely coming back here.

I stayed with Koinè for four months and it was a wonderful experience all day every day. All the teachers and secretary are there for you, and will help you in no matter your question/problem. You will feel like part of a beautiful family.

The courses are superb, and before you know it, you speak Italian. True story! The classes are complex and divers, which ensures you will never get bored. And the teachers are just too charming. And not to forget, you will make so many new friends from all over the world, at all ages.

Koinè also offers two cultural events every week, so not only will you learn the language, you will also become one of the greatest guides Firenze has to offer.

As fast as my savings allows it, you will find me on the first flight back!

I spent 5 weeks at The Koinè Center a few years back and it continues to be one of the best experience of my life. The staff at the school were always warm and welcoming and they made language learning enjoyable and fun. I went on many of the outings that the school organized as well. From the walks and talks around the town to an afternoon of wine tasting in Chianti, everything was lovely and I felt well taken care of. The location of Koinè Center is absolutely everything you could ask for too!

This is the perfect school to learn Italian in Florence. It is located in the downtown area, so it is close to many points of interest. The instructors are very knowledgeable and make the classes dynamic and fun. They also have cultural activities twice a week, where they take you to a site in Florence and teach you about the history and culture.

I was there for 4 weeks this summer and my Italian did improve by a lot. Definitely planning to go back one day to learn more.

I loved my experience at Koinè! I came in with little knowledge of Italian and was able to make a lot of progress in 3 short weeks. The teachers are all fantastic and wonderful. They make the learning interesting and are sincerely interested in you learning while you're there. I can't recommend them enough!
