I am delighted to share my first experience with Manish after having completed six lessons with him. Manish is a very affable and friendly person who is able to establish a highly pleasant rapport with his students. It is evident that he has a vast experience of teaching since he perfectly adjusts to the level of his students. I am amazed by the way he explains difficult grammatical concepts, exclusively speaking Italian. Moreover, I am stunned by the level of efficiency of our lessons combining free speech and grammatical concepts. He is always punctual and takes his time to finish tasks during the lesson, even if it takes additional five minutes after the class official ends. One of the most astonishing facts is that he even customizes the homework according to the personal interests of his students. I look forward to continuing my Italian journey with Manish.

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 🙌

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.

My son had a great really personalised lesson. He took the time to create content that that would interest and engage him. As a first lesson my son was nervous, but he made him feel totally at ease and he asked to see him again straight away - learning new vocabulary without realising
