I really like the method Michela has chosen to use---the homework does a good job of practicing not just grammar, but also modes of expression. Then in class we practice speaking and weave these topics in (or sometimes a homework will cover something that came up in class!). I'm glad she assigns homework because it ensures that I have balanced development in the language.

I haven’t left a review of my lessons with Michela for a couple of weeks, mainly because I have run out of superlatives to describe these lessons. I always come away from a lesson feeling motivated and looking forward to the next lesson and learning more about not only the language but the culture and history of Italy. This week we discussed social networks and the internet. We discussed topics such as the effects of taking a break from social media and the positive and negative sides of the internet. My homework for the next lesson is to write a brief report on the use of social networks and the advantages and disadvantages. Michela knows me well enough to know that I love this type of homework and we might need a few hours to review it! Okay I am joking… but I cannot wait! Grazie Michela… alla prossima!

Michela is unrivaled in both her emotional and intellectual capacity as an instructor. She is able to meet you at whatever level you are and with whatever material/content you need. She is a gem.
