Franca was really helpful in my first lesson. I didn't have much to say, but she was patient enough to keep speaking with me so that we had material to talk about. Looking forward to the next lesson!

That was such a fun first lesson! Franca was so patient and created a really engaging and comfortable environment for me to try chatting in German with what little I had. Highly recommend!

NOT RECOMMENDED! Due to unforeseen circumstances, I couldn't attend a lesson and gave the teacher a heads-up about an hour in advance. The teacher still got paid in full, even though no lesson took place. This has rarely happened to me, but every other teacher I've worked with has been understanding and willing to arrange a make-up lesson. Not this one. Despite having a perfectly valid reason, I was flat-out refused. Zero flexibility, zero empathy. Pretty lousy start for someone who's just getting started on italki. Definitely wouldn't recommend.

I really enjoyed my lesson with Franca! She sent me a message beforehand to ask if I wanted to work on anything specific or talk about a particular topic. During the lesson, she made sure I was following along by asking questions and checking if I understood. She also asked questions to encourage me to speak more and did a great job of keeping the conversation going. She made me feel comfortable asking questions whenever I didn't know a word. Her accent was super clear and easy to understand. I would definitely recommend her!

I learned a lot today. Thank you! :)
