At Centro Linguistico Agorà we have been offering specially designed Italian language courses since 1990. Understanding the individual needs of our student, we offer personalized packages which can include staying with a host family. This option is available for teenagers as well as adults who would like to fully immerse themselves in the Italian language and culture.
The Centro Linguistico Agorà is also an official test centre for the CILS exam (Italian as a foreign language certification) in collaboration with the University for Foreigners of Siena.

Here at Centro Linguistico Agorà, half of our foreign students come as part of study trips aimed at learning not only Italian but to discover more of Italy’s unique and exciting cultural heritage. We can organise a memorable trip, combining language learning with visits to the main attractions of our city (for example the house of Amedeo Modigliani, the Livorno Aquarium, the Livorno City Museum, the Goldoni Theatre, Natural History of the Mediterranean Museum and the Jewish Synagogue). And of course we will visit the wonderful cities of Pisa, Lucca and Florence.
CILS Certification
From 2019 it is possible to combine your study trip with taking the CILS exam (Italian Language Certificate) to attest your knowledge of Italian and give you a recognised certification.
As the dates and registration deadlines for the exam are set by the University for Foreigners of Siena, it is necessary to check in advance if there are dates available during your visit. We are happy to assist you in your planning and to provide you with the relevant information.
