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.

Perfetto come sempre ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

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 - every lesson you practice listening, talking, and spend some time going over homework or new concepts. She always makes it fun and interesting. I highly recommend her!

Truely enjoyed every class with Marlene, she is very easygoing, patient and encouraging. For a beginner like me, I could really apply and use real conversational Italian in our class, which is super helpful.
