What our students say:

Viviana has been tutoring a small group of us in Italian conversation, which has been both valuable and enjoyable. The lessons are fun and varied. Viviana keeps us all talking in turn, with plenty of encouragement so that we are learning interesting facts and new vocabulary on the prepared topics that she brings to each lesson. We all look forward to the next one.

My lessons with Viviana have been excellent. She is a patient and encouraging tutor and always provides detailed, worthwhile feedback. Her private classes are well structured yet casual and it has helped grow my confidence in speaking while also learning more about Italian culture. I look forward to our lesson every week!

"Viviana is friendly, lively and encouraging, and I have found my first three lessons very helpful indeed. Her genuine Italian voice provides an excellent model, she is welcoming of all questions, and painstaking in her responses. I am hopeful that I will gradually be able to converse with her increasing fluency."

Malcom P.

"Viviana's lessons are wonderful. She puts me at ease and has an extensive library of resources for to use. Viviana is friendly, patient and great explaining grammatical concepts. I am really enjoying my lessons with her and I feel like I am embedding my learning rather than learning something and then forgetting it! Thank you Viviana."

“Viviana is great, helping me learn Italian and grow in confidence as a beginner.”

Laura H.

“I have been with Viviana for a few months now and I am really happy with my progress in learning Italian. Viviana is very patient and will spend the time to make sure I understand completely before moving on to something else. Mostly, Viviana makes me feel at ease, and unashamed should I pronounce something incorrectly, or if I use the wrong word all together. Viviana can accommodate anyone's learning ability whilst making it fun, interactive and relevant so that you can apply what you have learnt in everyday life and I look forward to our lessons every week!”

Jamie P.

“Viviana is a wonderful teacher. First lesson and I can really sense I will improve. It's great to speak to a native speaker and practice/hear everything in Italian.”

Matt P.

“Highly recommend! Viviana is very knowledgeable and her love of the Italian language is contagious. The lessons are fast-paced, you feel that you are making progress every time, but she is very supportive and friendly. One of the best learning experiences! ”

Andreas G.

“Viviana is a great tutor! I have had lessons with her for a few weeks now. She explains everything clearly, asks frequently if I have any questions. She is very engaging. The lessons are interesting and we are covering different skills each time (reading, speaking, grammar and vocabulary). I can highly recommend her.”

Fantastic tuition. After spending a long time trying to learn on my own it is like having a fast track to success. Can't recommend highly enough. Brilliant!
