When I arrived here in the School, I didn’t know anyone, but I felt part of them since the first day. After only a week almost all the teachers had learnt my name! Teachers really care about their work, they always have time to answer your questions, even after the lesson and they are always willing to have some chat. I think that this is one of the reasons why the atmosphere is so pleasant. After the lessons there are always things to do and lots of choices for your free time! I think there is really no time to get bored. I cannot do anything but suggesting this school to anyone!

Dear Scuola Leonardo da Vinci, I just wanted to thank you for an incredible two weeks of study. I found the courses and instructors rigorous and highly professional, not to mention funny and engaging as well. A note of special thanks to Antonella, Lucia, Monica, and the lovely woman with blonde curly hair in reception (sorry I can't recall her name!). Everyone demonstrated a great deal of enthusiasm, preparation and organization, and it was most appreciated. I will highly recommend the School to my friends and colleagues. With sincere thanks

Buon pomeriggio a tutti....vorrei ringraziarvi per la vostra gentilezza,la vostra pazienza...Gli insegnanti e le persone che lavorano in ufficio sono molto gentili,cordiali....Voi siete molto simpatici. Non dimentichero' mai il mio soggiorno a Firenze e alla scuola Leonardo Da Vinci!!! La lingua italiana è come un profumo che mi accarezza e lentamente cresce in me.Sono vissuta tanti anni senza questa lingua ma adesso non posso più immaginare di non parlare o di non scrivere in italiano...Ho la testa piena di coniugazioni,congiuntivo e preposizioni ma veramente mi è piaciuto molto studiare qui.Grazie mille per tutto...e vi prometto di continuare a perfezionare il mio italiano. L'Italia e Firenze sono nel mio cuore per sempre....un' emozione indimentacabile e incancellabile! Vi auguro un bellissimo fine settimana. Spero che il tempo sia anche bellissimo e piacevole. Tornero' a scuola nella settimana prossima per salutarvi. Ciao ciao

My experience at Scuola Leonardo da Vinci was wonderful. The teachers I worked with and stuff was very kind and helpful. I did a Preparation Course for Accademia delle Belli Arti di Firenze - school of painting. During my stay in Scuola Leonardo da Vinci, I had drawing session of naturmort, some sculpture lessons and life drawing with a model. Besides that i did some copies from masters, like Leonardo and Ribera. After some practice for drawing, I started to work on painting. I tried two techniques: tempera and oil. I really enjoyed working with oil. The program that I did at Scuola Leonardo da Vinci was very personal, based on my natural talents and my weakness too. I had a very effective communication with my teachers so we always focused on my needs to accomplish the exam. At the end of 1.5 month of study, I accomplished the exam, I got accepted to Accademia delle belli arti di Firenze!.
