What my students say
I found that Elisa was very flexible and adapted the lessons to my level each time. For someone who had only learned Italian through immersion, it was actually fun to piece together the basics from my experiences. Trying to balance work and learning, the trickiest thing has been keeping up a consistent pace, so I also appreciated Elisa's calm and friendly disposition every time. Elisa made the grammar exercises a fun activity, even after a week of work meetings. So now that I have the basics, I still love the language and I have the right tools to keep improving. I would definitely recommend this course if, like me, you haven't had a chance to learn Italian right the first time!

Our 1:1 classes with Elisa have been an excellent way of learning Italian. The lessons are constructed very carefully, and Elisa is really flexible when it comes to the timetables and the content of the lessons. Our lessons are always so much fun, they have been the highlight of our weeks for the past two years. Even though we do make mistakes Elisa is always positive and supportive. It's so good to have such an enthusiastic, encouraging and professional teacher!
We are so grateful to have found her.
We highly recommend her lessons!

I started lessons with Elisa in July 2022, following a couple of years independent learning, and also group online classes, but was not progressing as well as I hoped I would. I found Elisa via her Instagram page, and was impressed with her use of graphics and "role-play" insta-stories. Having looked at her website, and seen she offered private 1-1 lessons, I messaged her for availability. Elisa and I have enjoyed a good working relationship on an almost weekly basis since then. I adore Italy, its culture and love the people. The language is very musical and dramatic, and it is exciting to be able to express myself in front of Elisa without fear or embarrassment or making mistakes.
I have been fortunate enough to visit Italy eight times in the last five years, and lived on the outskirts of Rome for nine weeks March - May 2023, in a non-touristy area where the locals spoke little English.
Elisa and I continued our lessons during this time, as she was keen to hear about my experiences, how my language skills were developing, and offer support and advice on speaking in different social situations. Elisa is, I feel an excellent language teacher. She is understanding of my learning style, is very patient and encouraging, and I would highly recommend her for private tuition.

I loved my lessons with Elisa. She is fantastic and incredibly patient. She helped me write the vows to say at my wedding and the Italian family was blown away. It feels like talking to a friend. I get courageous trying to use Italian in real life with every lesson I have with her. Highly recommend!
