The Piccola Università Italiana has been providing high quality Italian language teaching since 1993. Its location in Tropea is in the heart of the town, in a beautiful 18th century building. The school offers a variety of general and special Italian courses focusing on art, culture, cuisine and water sports, and the small class sizes distinguish the school from others, guaranteeing its students individual attention.
Widely known as the “Pearl of the Tyrrhenian,” Tropea is a charming and picturesque town of 7000 inhabitants in the region of Calabria, located on a rocky cliff above the sea. It boasts a well-preserved medieval town center, a lively market, romantic side streets, small shops and traditional artisan crafts, outdoor cafés and typical family-run Italian restaurants. Students can enjoy white sandy beaches, crystal-clear turquoise water, tiny untouched bays, fabulous traditional cuisine and the charm of Tropea’s history, which can still be felt while walking past the imposing buildings of the town center.
