Elisa Lilliu

Today we focused on conversation...mamma mia! Seriously, Elisa is so helpful and supportive.

I appreciate that Elisa is focused on our goals. She is always encouraging and reassuring. We have a good time learning.

Elisa is sharp - she quickly picks up what I know and what I don’t. She adjusts the lesson to fit my needs!

Elisa has a very welcoming and friendly personality. I am very self-conscious about how bad I am butchering the beautiful Italian language when speaking and she was able to at least get a little Italian out of me on day one. Elisa is very encouraging and was able to make me feel ok about sucking right now, not her words but mine, because everyone struggles at first and you do not get better without speaking. This was my first lesson but I feel like she really could be the person to help me overcome my fear of participating in something beautiful for fear of ruining it. Again this was just the trial lesson so just a vibe and also I could be a lost cause but we will see because I am signing up for my next class now😉

Elisa shows up prepared for our lesson, but is also flexible and adjusts if needed. We have a great time, laughing a lot. The hour goes quickly!

In this first meeting, we spoke primarily in Italian so that she could get an idea of my level. We discussed my goals and agreed on what to start working on. It was exactly what I had hoped for; I am very happy with Elisa.
