Scuola Virgilio was founded in 2006 in Trapani, offering summer courses in the Italian language and culture for the first time in Trapani for foreigners wishing to experience a study stay in Italy. It then expanded its course offer from 2010 by providing English courses with mother tongue teachers for individuals, institutions and companies.
Today Scuola Virgilio offers language courses all year round organized in three departments: Italian for foreigners, English and Spanish, with a dozen native instructors teaching in person and online. Each teacher has their own story and personality, but they all have the same approach: to make language learning an experience of personal enrichment, which also allows each and every one to establish friendships that last over time.
The school is also very active outside its classrooms with activities in Trapani – such as social nights for language lovers or events for children – and on the internet with distance learning courses and its Facebook community where Italian and foreign students can enjoy free conversation exchange!
Scuola Virgilio’s headquarters is in via Osorio, 24 just behind the green lung of Trapani, the splendid villa Margherita, between the historic center and the new city, a few steps from the beach. The facility has five well-equipped, spacious and very bright classrooms, ideal for individual and group lessons. Today the Scuola Virgilio is ready to welcome its students, even the smallest ones such as children from 3 years old, in total safety to make each of them live a language learning experience that can change their lives for the better.
