Antonio

I have been doing weekly conversation lessons with Antonio for about a year to try to revive Italian that I learned many years ago in college. Antonio pushes you to try to speak to your best capability while also being patient and understanding when it takes a little while to spit out something that's not quite entirely correct. He also speaks perfect english, so I feel like we can really get to the true meaning of what I want to express instead of needing to simplify or generalize my thought in order to communicate (very helpful). I've learned and re-learned so much from him over the past year and have gained so much confidence in speaking Italian with others that I do it daily--something I would not have imagined possible even just a year ago.

It was clear to me from the first lesson that Antonio has a natural talent for teaching! He effortlessly challenges his students while maintaining a fun and stress-free environment. It is clear that he cares for his students and wants to aid in the learning process in any way he can. He provides great explanations, examples, and documents to help with grammar & vocab. His lessons are well-rounded and I end each lesson with new and relevant skills. He gives in-depth answers to any questions and makes sure that I understand concepts before moving on. He pushes me out of my comfort zone to make sure that I maximize my learning during our lessons. He is a very patient & understanding person and I have learned so much already from his lessons! He's truly a fantastic teacher!!

Antonio is amazing! I’ve been taking lessons with him for a month now and he’s hands down the best teacher I’ve found on this site. He’s a natural-born educator: always going above and beyond for his students, sending detailed notes after the lessons and responding promptly to any questions you have about grammar, culture, etc. Thanks to his encouragement and patience, my level of Italian has improved tremendously and my confidence speaking the language is ever-growing. Whether you’re a beginner or a student stuck in the intermediate/advanced plateau then absolutely book a lesson with him - I can’t recommend him highly enough!!

Excellent instructor. We have begun our third year...he is amazing..a natural at teaching language!
