Eugenia

Eugenia is able to tailor the lesson to the specific needs of each student. In my case, I wish to practice Italian through natural dialogue. That is, the give and take of one-on-one conversation regarding daily life, real world situations, and cultural and historical events. Within this scope I am encouraged to tell a story, ask questions, or defend a position. It forces me to think in Italian, which is key to making improvements. My mistakes, whether usage or pronunciation, are corrected in real time. The classroom atmosphere is always friendly, fun, courteous, and professional. I feel fortunate to have been matched with Eugenia. Highly recommended.

Eugenia has been my teacher for many years as I prepared for the CILS exam. She has always been helpful in communicating the topics covered in each lesson. Highly recommended!

Eugenia is always prepared to conduct an engaging lesson. She provides corrective feedback in a positive manner and always has interesting material for study or for topics of discussion. An effective instructor. Highly recommended.

I’ve been studying Italian with Eugenia for a while. Outside of class, I don’t have opportunities to practice Italian, but I was thrilled with my results on my recent visit to Italy. I could understand a lot— lol— even when eavesdropping! I was successfully able to telephone for taxis, make reservations, order food and ask questions about the menu, ask for directions, and have some friendly, basic conversations. A fun surprise, though, was how much I could read and comprehend at the sights we visited.

I had trouble entering the italki site and missed 15 minutes of my lesson

Eugenia is a warm and friendly professional, who can put you at ease while building your skills. A worthwhile lesson from a dedicated instructor.
