such a fun lesson! really enjoying the variety of topics we've been discussing. as always, marlene is extremely kind and patient, and does an excellent job of explaining meanings and grammar.

Marlene is such a lovely person. We laugh a lot during the lesson and time flies. We continued with household activities, prepositions and articles. I learned a lot, but never had the impression to "be at school", but rather to sit with a friend in a café. Thank you for this focused but relaxed learning style.

Great lesson! I'd like to do more exercises and have more structured next lesson. I really enjoy speaking with Marlene. She's great!

I feel so lucky that I picked Marlene for my first italki experience. She explains things well, and I always feel comfortable asking for clarification for anything I’m not clear on. And she continues to be patient with me getting used to the technology we use for remote lessons. Grazie, Marlene, for another great lesson. 😊

Marlene is an excellent teacher - she creates a comfortable space to learn and always makes it fun. The combination of conversation and structured material review is perfect. I highly recommend her.

Grazie Marlene per una piacevole chiacchierata come sempre 🤗🌷
