Description:

ALCE is a medium-sized family run school (and officially recognized examination centre for CILS) that specialises in teaching the Italian language providing overseas students with a comprehensive educational and cultural experience, within a friendly and encouraging environment. One thing has and never will change and that is our insistence on the same high standards and the same warm welcome we gave when we started. We work constantly to guarantee this and to maintain the quality on which our reputation is founded (maximum 8 students per class, personal attention, balanced international mix of nationalities). We are, and will always be, a traditional institution where you will be treated as an individual, not as a number, and where teachers and staff respect your commitment to your education and take pride in your achievements.Bologna, the capital of the Emilia-Romagna region, is a city steeped in history and culture. It is one of the most amazing urban centres in existence but what really distinguishes Bologna’s urban character are its porticoes (recently submitted for nomination as a World Heritage Site). There is a saying that the “Bolognese” do not realize how beautiful their city is. Actually, they are well aware of it !

Bologna is the result of a magical and alchemic mixture of art and culture. It has more than 30 museums, but it is also a lively, dynamic, vibrant and cheerful place, brought alive by the thousands of university students who have been flocking to the Alma Mater Studiorum – the oldest University in the world – since 1088 AD, the year of its establishment. Bologna is also an important gastronomic centre and the main railway junction in the North.
