The vast majority of students set a goal to obtain an Italian language certification for work, study or citizenship reasons. Let me tell, this shouldn’t be the only reason! Last year I made a list of other several other reasons why taking the CILS exam is a brilliant idea. My favorite one is to boost up your motivation, especially if you have been plateauing for a while.

Learning a language as an adult, in informal settings has some drawbacks too. Many students plateau at an intermediate level because they miss the guidance to perfect their writing or vocabulary, as is not needed. Committing to pass an Italian language exam, entails focusing on perfecting those areas that you might often neglect on a general Italian language course: like writing or listening.

Rest assure that perfecting those areas means that you will be a fantastic Italian speaker.

Everything comes down to your start and final point.
Before anything, find clarity about what type and level of Italian and what is your current level of Italian.
Once you know where you are and where you want to go, we can think in realistic terms of a timeframe.

Your teacher will be your reliable guide. We don’t work for someone else, and we do this because out of love for our profession. Teaching Italian is our full-time job, and we are enticed by our students’ success and motivated by transforming the lives of our students through Italian learning. 

Our motto is, there are not bad students. Instead, some students are trained, and some students are not. 

We give you the right tools to learn efficiently and find clarity during your Italian exam preparation journey.
