Luca Manish Penna

Having completed my 22nd Italian lesson with Manish, I can say without hesitation that he is an excellent teacher, and one that I will definitely continue to work with. His class combines conversational practice and grammar. Going into his lessons, my grasp of Italian grammar was uneven. He has built personalized lessons that have first addressed the most glaring holes in my knowledge. Likewise, he has a knack for fine-tuning the difficulty of the exercises to meet my level of understanding. Homework is varied and geared to my interests, giving me ample opportunity to practice writing, reading comprehension and listening skills between classes. I always learn something of Italian culture in the topics we cover. Ample time is devoted to conversational practice, and he provides helpful feedback on pronunciation, vocabulary, and idioms, while maintaining a natural conversational flow. Enthusiastic, patient, and resourceful, with his guidance I have made great strides in leaning Italian.

I had a fantastic lesson with Manish this morning. He is very friendly and welcoming. We were able to speak about a variety of topics, and the time went by very quickly. Also, his Italian is crystal clear, which is great for people who are learning the language. Grazie mille !

Manish is so great with my children. They are more motivated to learn and participate in their lessons thanks to his positive attitude and interactive learning materials. We highly recommend him!!

Me gustó mucho mi primera clase de prueba con Manish, se puede ver que es un excelente profesor. Bien organizado y con dinámicas muy interesantes. Estoy iniciándome en el italiano y supo adaptar sus actividades a mi nivel y mis necesidades. Estoy ansioso por continuar aprendiendo con él 🙌

Great trial lesson with Manish! He's warm and friendly, but also very professional and expert in eliciting what you know and what you don't. I'm excited to continue my learning journey with him!

I really enjoyed his teaching style. His lesson format is very detailed and he explains everything in a retainable way. Very charismatic and fun to converse with!
