Centro Mediterraneo Pintadera
The Centro Mediterraneo Pintadera is a small Italian language school founded over 15 years ago and located in a quiet picturesque alley in the old town of Alghero in Sardinia. The school is run by two women, one from Alghero and the other, a native of Berlin with a diverse international background.

Pintadera
Every course, be it language or culturally-orientated, involves organized activities exploring the Sardinian way of life including discovering at first hand local customs, traditions, food and wine. Our courses bring different cultures together in an attempt to understand one another more. More
Alghero
Alghero, considered by many to be the most fascinating town on the island, is situated on the northwest “Coral Coast” of Sardinia. The town was founded by the Genoese Doria family during the first half of the 12th century. More
Sardinia
Sardinia is an island of extraordinary beauty. It lies in the heart of the Mediterranean off the west coast of mainland Italy and white sandy beaches adorn its 1,800 km coastline. The interior of the island features vast stretches of uncontaminated nature. More

St. Paul’s School of London
The Italian department at St Paul’s School, London has been organising Italian homestay study trips with Pintadera since 2005 for our GCSE Italian students. In my opinion it is quite simply the best school languages trip our school offers – each year the trip is oversubscribed. What makes the Pintadera experience unique for the boys and teachers?

Grammatik, um die – gegenteiligen Versicherungen mancher Veranstalter zum Trotz – kein Lernwilliger herumkommt, wird nie zur öden Paukerei, sondern lebt von anschaulichen Beispielen und lebensnahen Texten, wie Auszügen aus Zeitungen oder Literatur. Dabei kommt der Humor nicht zu kurz. Das gilt vor allem für den Konversationsteil des Unterrichts. Selten habe ich beim Lernen so viel gelacht und beim Lachen so viel gelernt.

Mi sono innamorata di Alghero dal primo momento. Una piccola e bellissima città sul mare, dove posso guardare il tramonto quasi ogni sera. Pintadera, la piccola scuola per studiare l’italiano, mi ha regalato un’atmosfera aperta e amicizia. Grazie a Roberta, la mia insegnante bravissima e gentilissima, posso parlare con tutti di tutto dopo un breve tempo.
