Maria Rosaria

I've been learning Italian with Maria for almost a year, and I truly enjoy every lesson. Her classes are engaging, well-structured, and thoughtfully prepared. Maria is an absolute grammar queen :) She also speaks English and Russian, and it’s clear she has extensive experience in both learning and teaching foreign languages. Beyond her professionalism, Maria is a kind and encouraging person, and I always look forward to our lessons. I would definitely recommend her to my friends!

Мария прекрасный учитель, она всегда готовится к урокам, объясняет все очень доступно . Благодаря её урокам я прошёл экзамен Cils уровень B2 и свободно общаюсь на итальянском. Кроме того она очень приятный и доброжелательный человек и вдобавок говорит по русски .

Maria Rosaria e sempre perfetta

Maria is fully committed to teaching and has a thorough understanding of the English Language, which is imperative for accurate translations. Making sure I end the lesson with more knowledge than when I began the lesson is her primary goal. Maria starts every class with a simple conversation but listens closely to correct grammar and pronunciation. She has been fully engaged with my progress. Her entire approach to teaching Italian is not nerve-wracking but relaxing and informative. I feel totally at ease when speaking to her. She helps develop good speaking habits by presenting exercises or by simply advancing each conversation with a broader understanding of grammar, vocabulary and idioms. Her teaching style is engaging, and the hour goes by quickly. I would highly recommend Maria as a teacher, she invests her time in her students so they become capable and competent Italian speakers.

I had a great first session with Maria, she was able to walk through the basics of conversational italian with me and answered all the questions i had. I appreciated her patience and ability to understand my learning needs.

I’ve been studying with Maria Rosaria in order to prepare for my CILS exams. It had been such a long time since I sat an exam, I was anxious about the process and had a fear of failure. Maria Rosaria is wonderful, she guided me through the phases of the exams, coached me on each aspect of the language - reading, writing, listening, speaking and grammar generally, and from the outset we established a fabulous rapport. Maria Rosaria is very knowledgeable and also easy to just chat to; when I hadn’t done my homework or if there was a major distraction in my life, we would spend an hour just in conversation which boosted my confidence and improved my speaking skills. This week I received the results of my first exam - 93%! I’m immensely happy and looking forward to continuing our work together as I plan for the next exam in a few months.
