SCUOLA PALAZZO MALVISI is one of the oldest and most reputable Italian Language Schools in Italy; established in 1981, every year we train up to 500 students from all over the world in the beautiful town of Ravenna.

Our mission is to promote the culture and traditions of Italy in the world by means of primary communication: language.

Since 1981, Scuola Palazzo Malvisi has been synonymous with a superior level of education, professional organisation and a friendly atmosphere. All our teachers are DITALS certified and we are partners of the Università per Stranieri di Perugia e di Siena.

Ravenna is a small but wonderful town where the spirit of Italy can be felt at every corner. Safe, calm and full of priceless works of art, Ravenna is at a few minutes from the Adriatic Coast, the trendiest holiday and leisure area in Europe.

Our philosophy is to offer students qualified teachers, up-to-date teaching methods, and a warm environment in typically Italian location, uniquely charming. The extracurricular activities and the choice of families providing accommodation are an integral part of our teaching method. A language is only really learned by full immersion in it, not just in the classroom but all day, every day.
