“I had never traveled outside the United States when my husband accepted his job in Italy. I sometimes get overwhelmed living here and learning a second language. Not only does Alessandra have extensive technical knowledge regarding the language but she somehow always seems to know what to say to keep me excited and motivated to learn and try. Learning a second language is hard and Alessandra gives me the confidence to keep trying! This is everything when you are new to a language:) “

“Beautiful lessons. A pleasure to deal with!”

“It has been a huge challenge for me combining this course with work, but I am very happy that I did not give up because I feel like I have improved a lot during these months. Now I can actually speak a little, it is crazy! And it is also thanks to you, you have been an awesome teacher Alessandra!”

“I just wanted to say thanks again. I really enjoyed Italian (challenging but worthwhile) this term. I appreciate the advice and the feedback, I’ll return again to it.”

“Thank you Alessandra! We were all impressed by your enthusiasm, even it’s just a couple of weeks. Many thanks for your support!”

“I think you do a fantastic job as the teacher. I truly do. Having been a teacher at a university myself – I can really see and appreciate your efforts. I very much appreciate you making us re-write our homework. It takes a lot from you, but is very useful for us who attend.”

“I would like to thank you for a such great class in Italian language! It gave me a  lot of inspiration and positive emotions. Of course, it gave a lot of work! I am very happy to have an opportunity to learn Italian and hope that I will be able to learn it better.”

“It has really been a pleasure attending this course in Italian. You really are an excellent  teacher, in fact you are the first one that has managed to explain the grammar in a simple and logical way (with your grammar pills) and not just saying “it is like this”.  You have really done a wonderful work!”

“Your classes were a bright light in busy weeks – I was always very excited to have class again. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding as well as making our classes so taught full.  Please keep your way of teaching it makes classes very interesting and understandable.”
