Frequently asked questions about Padova
- How much does accommodation cost in Padova?
- A host family with breakfast usually costs about €180–260 per week for a single room; a room in a shared flat generally starts at €150–220. These are rough figures: the price changes with the season, the distance from the centre and the meals included. Almost every school on this page books accommodation for you, so ask for a quote covering course and room together.
- How many Italian language schools are there in Padova?
- We have selected one, with courses of 20 hours a week.
- How do I choose between the schools in Padova?
- Look at three numbers, not the price alone. The real lesson length: 20 hours of 45 minutes are 15 actual hours, of 60 minutes they are 20. How many people are really in the class in high season, not the stated maximum. And the total including enrolment, materials and accommodation, not the weekly rate.
- Which schools in Padova are exam centres?
- No school in Padova is an exam centre: you sit the exam at a nearby venue, and the school helps you register.
- Do the schools in Padova help you find accommodation?
- Yes, all 1 of them. Host family, shared flat or residence: the host family is the most useful for the language, because it makes you speak Italian every evening.
- How much does an Italian course in Padova cost?
- Rates vary a lot and should be asked of the school. When you do, ask for the total: a one-off enrolment fee is almost always added to the weekly rate, usually 50–90 euros in Italy, and books, accommodation, cultural activities and exam fees may be charged separately.
Events this year
The city's big festivals, food fairs and cultural seasons through the year. They're not just entertainment: they're the best training ground for your Italian. At a local festival you end up ordering, asking directions, chatting with locals: the real language, the kind books don't teach. If you can, line up a week of your course with one of these.
Festa di Sant'Antonio On 13 June Padua fills with pilgrims for Italy's most beloved saint, with a procession and masses all day. A chance for religious vocabulary and for seeing how much Saint Anthony matters here. | 13 June |
Sherwood Festival Between June and July the festival brings weeks of concerts, debates and open-air food, with a student crowd. A young, informal setting: perfect for colloquial Italian. | June–July |
