CiaoItaly, the school of Italian language for foreigners, was born in Turin from multicultural experience and from professionalism of the staff of abbeySCHOOL. The institution is a member of the ASILS, the AIL and Eduitalia, and has also been recognised by CSN Lund-Sweden.

Moreover, the school is also a centre for the provision of Bildungsurlaub courses. Since 2012 it has been running a Master in Teaching Italian as a Foreign Language and as a Second Language.

The school guarantees to all who need to learn Italian in Turin with high quality of education through individual courses, group courses, and intensive courses.
