We always have a wonderful conversation about interesting topics. Valerio is very attentive to what I like to learn about Italy.

Valerio really knows how to engage the learner. He uses the natural gifts of the student as a means of improving competency in Italian. Looking forward to our next lesson!

Je suis très contente d'avoir trouvé Valerio comme professeur. Il est très compétent, attentif, patient et gentil ! Il m'explique la grammaire et corrige mes erreurs et cela m'aide à progresser. J'aime beaucoup discuter avec lui également de l'histoire, de la culture et de la littérature italienne ! Je conseille fortement les cours avec Valerio !

I'm writing this in English for those who are looking for an Italian teacher, who will stay at your pace and help you kindly, patiently. Valerio is a calming influence and puts me at ease every week, so that speaking and listening in Italian feel real and engaging. His gentle personality creates an atmosphere of comfort in which my self-criticism (as with repetitive errors I think I should not be making anymore, and do) is kept to a minimum. He takes an interest in the details of my days, curious to ask this or that, and shares openly anything that relates to his own experiences. I appreciate and enjoy being with him. I admire his own aspirations, and this generates more conversation. In addition, Valerio keeps a tally things to teach me, and for me to practice offline, offering texts that relate to the errors I make. Frankly, I encourage you to schedule a chat with him.

tres sympa et une classe tres vivante. Je recommande ce professeur.

Amazing listener and really engaged in conversation. Asks lots of questions.
