I've been studying with Martina for well over a year at this point and I can say that she is an absolute joy to work with. She has a great sense of humor and the rare ability to conduct a conversational lesson without the student feeling like it's "A LESSON." Never intimidating, never judgmental, and always positive. She's someone you would want as a friend in real life, but at the end of the lesson, you look up and realize: "Hey, my Italian is better!" She just has a way of instilling confidence in her students that's difficult to explain, and I hope to continue working with her for months and years to come. Tough to give a higher recommendation than that!

Martina is an amazing teacher. She's so good at explaining things I call it Martina magic 😅 I do some learning on my own, and when I can't understand something, I write it down, ask Martina during one of our lessons, and she always finds a way to help me understand it #LikeMagic. Her other magic is making the lessons so interesting that the 1 hour flies by. I really wish my work meetings went by as quickly 🤣 Grazie Martina, sei davvero un'insegnante straordinaria 🙏

I've done a couple advanced Italian speaking lessons with Martina now, and she is lovely! She is so friendly and helpful! She is perfectly fluent in English, so she can understand any questions you might have, and she's very good at explaining Italian concepts. She's patient and encouraging. I would highly recommend!

I have been studying with Martina over the past year. She always provides a prepared lesson and opportunities for practice. Moreover, she instills confidence in the learner by creating a positive classroom climate. As a language learner, I highly recommend her.

It is always a pleasure to speak with Martina!

Martina was so helpful and kind and fun to talk to! She was very conversational and encouraging, and helpfully and gently pointed out mistakes I'd made. I would highly recommend her.
