Valerio

We always have a wonderful conversation about interesting topics. Valerio is very attentive to what I like to learn about Italy.

Valerio really knows how to engage the learner. He uses the natural gifts of the student as a means of improving competency in Italian. Looking forward to our next lesson!

Great teacher that I would happily recommend!

I'm writing this in English for those who are looking for an Italian teacher, who will stay at your pace and help you kindly, patiently. Valerio is a calming influence and puts me at ease every week, so that speaking and listening in Italian feel real and engaging. His gentle personality creates an atmosphere of comfort in which my self-criticism (as with repetitive errors I think I should not be making anymore, and do) is kept to a minimum. He takes an interest in the details of my days, curious to ask this or that, and shares openly anything that relates to his own experiences. I appreciate and enjoy being with him. I admire his own aspirations, and this generates more conversation. In addition, Valerio keeps a tally things to teach me, and for me to practice offline, offering texts that relate to the errors I make. Frankly, I encourage you to schedule a chat with him.

Great teacher. Tailors lesson to your needs.

Excellent tutor, I highly recommend him!
