The International Language School is a leading academic institution for students interested in language and Italian liberal arts offering professional instruction in conjunction with cultural programs. Our core principles are embodied by a desire for academic excellence by focusing on performance, experience and cultural immersion.
Our staff is comprised of gifted instructors, professors, and administrators dedicated to preparing students for the professional world in an increasingly global society.
ILS prioritizes educational integrity, individual growth, and an interconnected and comprehensive educational and personal experience. We strive to create full-immersion programs with a structure designed to maximise the students’ experience and growth within their field of study. At ILS, we attempt to develop a personal and professional relationship with each student in order to ensure their well-being and success.
Whether it is language, art, history, design, or any other course, students are encouraged to participate in classroom activities while at the same time taking advantage of the extensive off-campus activities that ILS offers.
A cornerstone of our educational philosophy is experiential learning providing our students with an opportunity to fully immerse themselves in Roman, Italian and European culture. The ILS staff is committed to making sure our students see this spectacular city that so many people come to visit, while simultaneously elevating each student’s understanding and mastery of the content covered in the classroom.
