Polymnia Language School

Polymnia Language School has been teaching Italian in the heart of Cortona since 1989. Founded and led by Renzo Borzillo, the school offers small-group and private Italian courses for international students, with a maximum of 6 students per class.

Cortona is the city of “Under the Tuscan Sun” — and learning Italian here is not just a lesson, it’s an experience. Polymnia combines language classes with the real life of a medieval hilltop town: local restaurants, historic streets, and a teacher who has spent 35 years in the same classroom.

Courses available for all levels, from complete beginners to advanced. Intensive week-long programmes designed for international visitors are available on request.

Small classes. Personal attention. Real Cortona. — Plan ahead, with a local.
