I have been taking lessons with Vincenzo once a week for about two months. I can confidently say my Italian is getting better and better each week. He is extremely patient and cares about his students. What I love about his lessons is the way he uses different techniques. His lessons are never boring. We work on conversation, pronunciation, and grammar. He uses music, culture, and real situations (work, family, interests, etc.) to teach the language. He gives corrective feedback in a very positive way and always explains how to fix mistakes. I am very grateful to have his as my teacher and I would highly recommend him to anyone who wants to learn in a fun and engaging way.

For anyone who has ever longed to speak the colorful language of Napuletan’, I beg of you to schedule a lesson immediately with Vincenzo. We have met three times and I cannot thank him enough for my improvements in such a short amount of time. He will teach you how to think, act, and truly be Neapolitan! From hand gestures to facial expressions, and music to poetry, the small nuances and history of “why” and “how” things are done in this ancient culture are truly fascinating. Grazie assaj fratem’, e ce verimm’ a semman che tras!

Great conversation, lots of new words, a book recommendation, great hour spent chatting di tutto e di niente.

Vincenzo was enthusiastic and personable, and was able to quickly access materials to assess my level and augment my learning experience in Italian. He spoke slowly and clearly and had a lot to offer in the Italian language and culture. He had a knack for being spontaneous in creating discussion topics in Italian. I look forward to learning more from Vincenzo!

Vincenzo was terrific, easy to understand and he gave me a lot of encouragement, - now I feel more confident. Non vedo l'ore che arriva la prossima lezione!

Vincenzo was great - as an Italian-American with roots from Campagnia, it was great to pick up a little Napolitano as well. Vincenzo was like a wise Zen master: calm, understanding, patient, and disciplined. It was great to just speak and not worry about making mistakes. We also talked about history and about his interest in minority languages which is really cool to me. Will definitely be taking more lessons with him.
