Alberto 马帛乐

i absolutely recommend abettu to ANYONE who wants to learn real sicilianu or learn sicilianu and italiano. i’m a minor with learning disabilities and he is so accommodating and so informative. he also helps me learn how to say things about things i like like bands. he goes on cool trips to see the world, all around, great and kind guy

Alberto's excellent command of the English language has been very helpful to me to be able to understand the nuances of the Italian language. I have had lessons with several teachers and I would rate Alberto as being the best for me. He speaks very clearly and is easy to understand when speaking either Italian or English, which I think facilitates learning for students.

Good trial lesson with Alberto. He probed to find out my level of Italian and was always encouraging. He provided suggestions of how I might improve even if I don't choose to work with him further.

I just had my first lesson with Alberto and am very impressed. He is organized and knows how to keep the conversation moving. He puts you at ease by tailoring his approach to your level, which is important when you’re like me and don’t yet have a lot of confidence in your speaking and comprehension ability. He also types out phrases as he goes along, either to correct you or to give you new vocabulary and phrases. (He does this so quickly that you hardly even notice it while you’re talking.) This is a great resource to have after the lesson, since it gives you a ready-made study guide to review. Alberto also has lots of useful suggestions about how to improve your Italian using online and other resources. On top of all this, he’s just a very friendly person who’s encouraging and supportive. I’m really looking forward to more lessons with Alberto!

A great introductory lesson. Even though I was very nervous, Alberto was good at correction and keeping the conversation moving.

Amazing teacher, really understanda when and where I need help
