Michela Nazzaruolo

I’ve been studying with Michela for several years. She is an amazing teacher and conversation partner. She is always encouraging. Best of all, we laugh and laugh. It’s like talking with a friend and learning as you go. If you are lucky enough to get on her schedule, you will find learning Italian to be fun.

Michela is an excellent teacher, she really knows how to keep me engaged, her enthusiasm is always present. I have learned so much in these 6 months with her, I appreciate that she always motivates me to go a little further. She is not only a great teacher but an amazing person. Thanks Michela!

What a fantastic Italian teacher. As I have been learning Italian for several years, I’ve had several different teachers and none of them compare to Michela. She has a teaching style that makes you enjoy learning and each session with her. I learn mpltp. She has the voice of an actor, so pleasant, and so easy to understand. She also provides excellent homework, for example, currently a book chapter of interesting story that she sends text and also a voice. Leslie, do you wanna watch?

Thinking about my path and progress, I have been a student of Michela since January 2024. Merged with my previous self-study knowledge working alongside a native (Michela) has allowed me to propel in encouraging ways. Anyone can teach, but Michela takes it a step further. Her attention, care, patience, and feedback have made learning Italian fun, exciting, educational, engaging, and fast-tracked toward my goals. Wanting to be fluent and reach a specific level seemed out of reach but, since working with Michela, I have been able to not only track my progress and gain real-time feedback from Michela but be encouraged to continue on my path and don't be afraid to learn something in a new way. Soaring my confidence to new heights. Our banter, and one-on-one chats allow me to both practice my Italian and connect in an even more meaningful way. Heightening my learning in ways I was missing before. I look forward to seeing what we accomplish together - even a year from now.

Michela is a joy to work with - she is always enthusiastic and encouraging and never loses patience.

Excellent teacher!
