From Sarah (5/5): Very engaging and positive teacher. I felt extremely at ease from the first lesson. Thank you!

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you!

From Anthony (5/5): I couldn't have hand-picked a better tutor. The lessons are fun, informative, and very well-structured.The study materials we are using are excellent. I have tried to teach myself Italian for several years with very slow progress. Although we are only three lessons in, Valentina has provided the clarity and direction I needed and the rate at which I'm learning has already accelerated.

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you so much Anthony!

From Paul (5/5): I’m really enjoying my lessons and feel that I am making progress. I like that you take time to explain things when I have a question.

Reply from: Valentina: Many thanks for your feedback!

From James (5/5): Valentina has been great so far! I feel like i'm learning well in our lessons.

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you James!

From Sam (5/5): Valentina is an excellent teacher, very patient and professional.

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you Sam!

From Annette (5/5): Couldn't fault her. My husband and I had several lessons with valentina having no knowledge of Italian or Italy at all. She was flexible with timings - tweaked the course so that we had classes to suit our needs rather than following scripted modules - we are going to Italy on holiday - she was professional yet managed to make the learning fun. Would highly recommend her.

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you Annette, have fun in Italy!

From Evon S (5/5): Valentina is a fantastic teacher. She has a lively and positive approach and clearly knows her stuff. The resource book she uses is clearly set out and well graduated. I love my lessons with Valentina and the knowledge that she brings to the lessons. I definitely don't feel that she wants to plough through the book, but really wants to teach the language in a holistic way.

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you Evon, and you are a fantastic student!

From Tim (4/5): Valentina is a good tutor who has met my needs and helped me gain confidence in German

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you Tim.

From Laurence (5/5): Excellent teaching; friendly, hospitable, insightful, and exactly suited to my needs. Thanks!!!

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you Laurence!

From Karen (5/5): Valentina is professional and patient as well as friendly and approachable. For us learning Italian will be something we enjoy doing for many many months to come and we all agree that we absolutely made the right decision when we chose Valentina as our teacher. I would highly recommend her to others.

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you so much Karen!

From Robin (4/5): Classes have been satisfactory although we have not had many due to Christmas. Valentina has prepared for each class, has asked each of us to read and has brought all of us into conversation. It may be that she over rates our ability to follow spoken Italian as she speaks quite quickly. Whilst this is a good thing in that it will better equip us for speaking to Italians, possibly she needs to work up to it a bit more slowly

From Pavlina (5/5): My daughter is very happy with the way the lessons are going! :)

Reply from: Valentina: Thank you Pavlina.
