Bernardino is a knowledgeable teacher and a kind person to converse with. He listens and provides straightforward feedback, making our discussions valuable. He knows how to explain concepts clearly while also helping me feel and understand them, which is key to my progress. Dino creates a balanced and productive environment that truly supports my learning. I strongly recommend trying to have a lesson with Dino!

Dino è un ottimo insegnante, prepara molto bene tutte le lezioni e da sempre un feedback sui compiti che ti assegna. Io sto seguendo con lui un programma di diversi mesi e proseguirò certamente per i prossimi.

Sono felice di aver trovato un insegnante capace di motivarmi e coinvolgermi nelle lezioni. Bernardino è un insegnante empatico, in grado di preparare piani individualizzati di apprendimento per raggiungere gli obiettivi in modo sicuro. Inoltre è facile e piacevole conversare e imparare nello stesso tempo. Consiglio i suoi corsi!

Dino is an AWESOME teacher. He scans all your profile during the first few classes and then adapts the lessons according to your needs, with focus on fixing your weeknesses. He uses great material and knows how to handle the classes, so you can get the most out of the lessons.
