I LOVE my lessons with Michela! She's a warm, friendly, encouraging, and patient teacher who creates a safe space where I feel comfortable making mistakes--incredibly important in language learning. She's also very positive and energetic and laser focused on my learning needs. Every class is individualized and appropriate for my level, so I am challenged but not frustrated. The teaching method she uses (providing a story so I can prepare prior to each class), is effective and fun! The hour flies by, and I look forward to my class each week. I've made a lot of progress during my time with Michela and, most of all, my speaking confidence has grown tremendously. You will not find a better teacher; she's the best!

I’ve been studying with Michela for several years. She is an amazing teacher and conversation partner. She is always encouraging. Best of all, we laugh and laugh. It’s like talking with a friend and learning as you go. If you are lucky enough to get on her schedule, you will find learning Italian to be fun.

She is the absolute best! Love her

I feel very lucky to have found Michela, she is a wonderful teacher. Her classes are structured so that each lesson builds on the last, helping you build up your vocabulary, reading, and speaking in a coordinated, progressive way. She's consistently positive and energetic, always celebrating your improvements and achievements. Most importantly, she uses every mistake as a learning opportunity and provides timely and effective hints and connections to help you remember words, phrases, or concepts you're struggling with. Without question, I genuinely look forward to every class.

Michela is an amazing teacher! I enjoyed my lesson with her and the welcoming, engaging, and fun learning environment she creates.

Fantastic lesson. Expert instructor who tailored the lesson to my objectives. Very fun and informative.
