Ovit I love you!!! The teachers are super simpatici and profesionale!!! We have even became close friends after the course was finished. Thanks for all those great moments you have given to us. I will miss you all!!!!

Perfetto! Magnifico! Meraviglioso! Stupendo! Era una bellissima esperienza per me in questa scuola nel novembre 2009. Posso parlare italiano meglio grazie agli insegnanti che erano gentilissimi, bene informati e molto professionali (e amici adesso). Ovit-Milano is a small, private school for foreigners in the heart of Milan, owned by its small teaching staff. I took lessons Monday through Friday, 9 am to 1 pm, with a brief break half-way through. The program was set up to provide two hours with one teacher on nailing down the often-tricky grammar rules with the other two hours with another teacher on practicing and reinforcing what you'd learned via conversation and literature. And we're not talking about boring topics here either for culture, cuisine and customs.  The information I gleaned from my daily practicum was rich in history, highly informative and absolutely essential to understanding this fascinating country. After classes, I returned in the late afternoon for the ever-changing extra-curricular portion: watching a movie, going on a cultural excursion in the city, attending a seminar by an outside speaker, etc. Except for the nominal price of the attractions, these activities were included in the program price. What really made the month successful for me was the incredible patience, knowledge and commitment on the part of Ovit's teachers. Such passion and kindness in teaching their language and ensuring it was a “bellissima esperienza” for me. And then there the school's administrative assistant. The man was a genius in finding suitable and cost-effective lodging accommodations nearby (not an easy task in Milan), providing assistance in visiting locales outside of Milan and even researching the best way to open up a bank account in Italy, now that I possess dual citizenship. Bravissimo, Ovit-Milano! [click here to read Mariann's full review for wisitalia.org]

What can I say?! The teachers are incredible... kind, patient, helpful, fun and most importantly they are great teachers! I live in Milan and before I studied at Ovit my confidence in speaking Italian was not so great but I have learnt a lot in the last month and I feel that my speech and understanding have improved dramatically. 
I would recommend Ovit to anyone who wants to come and study Italian in Milan. It really is a great personal experience and not just for the teaching, also for the lunches, aperitivi and even tours of the city if you wish.

Polecam wszystkim zainteresowanym szkolâ OVIT!!! Ho trovato la scuola Ovit su internet. E' stata una buona scelta!
 L'atmosfera delle lezioni è molto piacevole e le insegnanti sono molto gentili e qualificate!!! Raccomando questa scuola!!!

I'm from Mongolia and this is my first time in Europe. 
I've come here to study Fashion Design. I’ve chosen Milano because for me Fashion Is Milan. Everything before was good except the language, Italian. Finding OVIT was my start of new life! The teachers of OVIT were my Friends and Family. I’ve studied there for 40 days. Not too long… But these 40 days was unforgettable! I didn’t know that Italian people (especially teachers of OVIT ) is that nice, kind and helpful! For this short period I’ve learned many things with peasure. No matter how hard was the Italian Language teachers of OVIT helped me and always supported me. 
Here in OVIT I felt that it is not just school it is whole Family! It was really good experience and good memories. I think my foundation of Italian Language is good thanks to OVIT!!!!

I am Inci! A PhD candidate in Milano! I have been in the city for a while, I cannot say I am now fluently speaking Italian, but if I would not have attended the course here, frankly I would not be able to speak it AT ALL! Which means the team in Ovit gave me the encouragement (the most important one!) and motivation to use the language. Not just about that topic! There, I got some good friends who cheered me up when I am so desperate in some of the mornings! I wish I could have time to continue there , anyway I will push for that! By the way I am still waiting for the whereabout since our professors are organizing some traditional events to make us know some more Italian culture, I do appreciate for these. I strongly suggest anyone to take place in this peaceful and friendly group not only to learn a language but also to SEE the Italian culture! P.s. Thank you for being so kind to correct me while I was doing (stubbornly) the same mistakes.

La mia esperienza ad Ovit era meravigliosa! Ho imparato molto in poco tempo ed ho guadagnato un apprezzamento per la lingua e la cultura italiana.  Ho amato conoscere tutti e spero di tornare presto a Milano! The team at OVIT is magnificent! They really have the ability to connect with each individual to meet their specific needs and personalize the learning experience.  They all go above and beyond the call of duty to help their students and introduce them and familiarize them also with the Italian culture. This is a unique point of difference that separates them from the competition and their passion for their work to benefit their students gives an overall advantage in learning. I personally gained both a better knowledge of the Italian language as well as some good friends.

I am really lucky to have a place in Milan where there is truly high quality Italian language instruction with a reasonable prices. The teachers are passionate, friendly and professional, the class sizes are small so that students will learn Italian with ease. OVIT is also in a good location in Milan, it was convenient for me to get there. They do offer free Italian materials for students.

Sono Angela Bossi e vivo a São Paulo, Brasile. Sono insegnante privata di inglese. Ho studiato all'Ovit Milano e mi è piaciuto molto il loro metodo, molto pratico e stimolante!

Voglio condividere le mie impressioni sulla scuola Ovit. Grazie a tutti gli insegnanti per la loro amichevole, calda e familiare atmosfera presso la scuola. Le lezioni erano rilassanti e abbiamo imparato un sacco di cose interessanti. Gli incontri al di fuori della scuola erano necessari, perché abbiamo avuto discorsi colloquiali in tali occasioni. E naturalmente in questa scuola si hanno molti amici provenienti da diversi paesi. Grazie.
