Learn Italian in Siena
With 40 years of teaching experience, students can learn Italian in Siena in a relaxed language learning environment, for ALL linguistic levels in the heart of everything. Siena is home to one of the oldest Universities in Europe, a beautifully compact, medieval city, and appeals to adult and students alike, all looking to study Italian whilst unwinding and enjoying the slower pace of life offered.
The historic heart of Siena fans out from the 14th century, Piazza del Campo into winding medieval lanes best suited for walkers (or horses in past centuries), not the transport of the 21st century. Accommodation may be possible within the city walls, but most hosts live in the modern residential area of Siena.

The help and assistance I received from CESA Languages staff, was excellent. The CESA website and information pack gave me a good idea of what to expect.
I felt all expectations were met; the teaching material handed out was excellent, the classrooms were of a good size, well lit, comfortable and nicely decorated. For me the lessons worked well…David – 2 wks Read full review
