One World Italian School is an Italian language school in the capital city on the beautiful island of Sardinia. The island itself has a shell of sandy beaches running all the way around its circumference with a mountainous skeleton. Sardinia is easy to explore by car, with a length of 4 hours from North to South and a width from East to West of 2.5 hours. A network of well-connected roads makes it perfect for weekend or day breaks. Cagliari, the capital city, is at the south of the island and is the main port for the island with ferry connections to both Naples and Sicily. One World Italian School has a breathtaking view of the Marina, from its 5th-story position in a historical building along the Via Roma. All the main attractions to visit, such as the Bastione Saint Remy and the Cagliari Cathedral, are within walking distance of the school and the surrounding area has an abundance of eateries and bars.

With nearly 20 years of experience teaching the Italian language, the school is well established and has been accredited as a member of the ASILS and the Eduitalia as well as being an official CILS examination centre. The methodology of the lessons is designed around a communicative approach, to steer away from mechanical learning, and to really allow the student to learn through practising the use of the language with peers and teachers. Sardinia radiates the famous Italian culture and One World Italian School embodies this into its class section offering its students a wide array of courses including Art and Traditions, Explore Sardinia, Italian and Nature, Italian, Wine and Olives as well as the very active Sun, Sea and Sport. All these courses allow the students to learn the language as well as dive into the culture and tradition that this picturesque island has to offer.

Cagliari is a great place for learning even though it is quite a big city with a lot of attractions which might be a distraction for some students. There are some quiet places which can be easily found when you need a nice and peaceful place to revise the knowledge taken from the morning lessons at the school, I recommend the botanical garden and other parks around the city. You can also continue learning on the Poetto beach (which for me was somewhat too commercial - turistic). The location of the school, its surroundings and facilities are great. I have been to four language schools in the south of Italy so I can have an opinion on this.
Disliked
My comments on the organization result from the objective situation of the pandemic and the related limitations. The school operated to a limited extent (no fault of course). There were only two groups with different levels of advancement and one teacher in each of them. In other schools where I was studying before (under normal conditions) teachers changed every week, and one day was taught by two different teachers, one with a grammar part and the other with a seminar (e.g. Picola Universita 'Italiana in Trieste or Tropea) . Within two weeks, I had contact with 5 teachers. This gives you the opportunity to meet different people with different personal characteristics (gestures, body language), pronunciation and accent, as they often come from different regions of Italy. It is a very valuable experience for learners of a foreign language. For the first few minutes it can be difficult, but it's a joy when we start to understand what such a new person is saying to us. People from the south are often very temperamental, and they speak so quickly. The sanitary regime was very much respected.
Insider tip: Allogio. Living among Italians. Additional free real language learning. Information about places and everyday matters that are not mentioned in tourist guides. "Spying" on the life and character of people of different nationality. You can reflect on our life in Poland, where we are "better" and where we are weak.

Quality of teaching / language progress: I loved the school. Small school and small groups. In my case, I was luckily to have a private teacher as I was the only student of my level. Noemi was an extraordinary person and teacher. I learnt a lot in little time. Thanks.
