TESTIMONIALS

“I have truly enjoyed our classes this mini-semester. Nelly is a wonderful teacher – she works very hard at getting us to talk. Also, I appreciate the way that she organizes the lessons and gets us back on track with what we set out to accomplish. And her generous hospitality is beyond expectations by far.” (Lisa)

“According to me, “Signora” Nelly is a marvelous teacher and fine and warm-hearted. She always gives us very interesting articles to read on Italian culture and she is good at explaining Italian grammar to Americans because she also speaks English very well. And, she always recommends well-written books that are appropriate to our level. Summing everything up, she’s the best that there is.” (Mary)

“An informed and enthusiastic teacher of the Italian language.” (Sylvia)
