Parents' Comments

Parent #1
The teacher/student ratio is great! The students really learn Italian, and so much more. My daughter is ahead of her age group now!

Parent #2
This is a wonderful school for parents who would like to expose their children to lots of Italian language and culture. The classes are very small, so children gets plenty of attention.

Parent #3
We live in Marin County, CA and couldn't be happier with Girotondo Italian School.

Firstly, Girotondo is a licensed school and a full-immersion Italian language program, the only one in the state of California. The teacher ratio and quality is fantastic and the parent group is very tight-knit and social. I really like knowing the parents of the children my daughter is going to school with and I know I can count on them in a pinch. I haven't witnessed first-hand any discipline, but I will comment that the students are a very happy, well-behaved group.

The best thing I can say is that my daughter loves it and acquiring a second language she otherwise wouldn't.
