Giulia

I'm writing this second review for Giulia by way of follow-up to my June comments about her helping me with preparation for the CILS C2 exam. Well, I passed the test! Thanks so much for your great work, Giulia...your assistance was invaluable!

Great lesson with Giulia! We learned the vocabulary about family members. We also learned about reflexive verbs and did a listening exercise. Giulia noticed a mistake I was making with personal pronouns and reviewed the rules so that I understood, which was very helpful!

Great lesson with Giulia! We talked a little about Christmas. After that, we continued with our verb refresh. Giulia re-explained the past conditional and we used it in conversation. When I make mistakes, Giulia's reaction is helpful and reassuring. She really puts me at ease and helps me not be afraid to make mistakes!

I strongly recommend Giulia for thoughtful, targeted lessons and test prep. I've had several tutors on italki for several languages. Generally, I find the most affordable teachers for informal speaking practice. This time, practicing for an Italian CILS exam, I was willing to pay a little more for more structured prep - Giulia's enthusiasm and professionalism justify that higher price point and then some. She takes organized notes, gives contextual feedback, and has a whole toolbox of methods to apply based on your specific goals. For personalized tutoring, you can't go wrong with Giulia.

Una lezione con Giulia e' sempre un piacere! Mi da sempre i compiti ma non si arrabbia se non li faccio. Capisce che i suoi studenti sono molto occupati e sfrutta al massimo il tempo dedicato alla lezione.

Yummy cooking class. The food we made was great
