What My Students Are Saying

Hear from my students about their La Dolce Lingua experience! These reviews showcase the personalized, engaging, and supportive journey of learning Italian.

I’ve had the pleasure of learning Italian with Denise, and I can honestly say she is one of the most patient, knowledgeable, and encouraging tutors I’ve ever worked with. From the very first lesson, she made me feel comfortable in speaking the foreign language, which greatly helped improve my overall learning. Denise has a wonderful way of tailoring each lesson to fit my needs and pace. Whether we’re focusing on grammar, vocabulary, or just having a casual conversation in Italian, she keeps things engaging and fun. For me, one of the most important traits in a good tutor is their ability to be understanding and supportive, and Denise provides both wonderfully. If you’re looking for a tutor who genuinely cares about your learning journey and creates a positive, enjoyable atmosphere, I can wholeheartedly recommend Denise! Grazie mille, Denise!

Me encantan las clases con Denise. Es una profesora nativa italiana, siempre prepara las lecciones perfectamente – una combinación ideal de poco de gramática, ejercicios y parte de hablar. Cada su clase es divertida e interesante. Es una persona muy amable, paciente y fácil para hablar. Me ha ayudado aprender italiano de O a B1 en 4 meses! Ha preparado plan de estudio justo y necesario para prepararme para el examen de Plida.

Four months into twice weekly classes, I offer this. Denise: is very professional; challenges you; is always prepared; is always on time; makes classes fun; is knowledgeable; is positive and patient. I’m not sure how one could find a better language instructor.

Denise is a wonderful teacher and fun to talk to, but she still makes me work hard (which is a good thing). Our general conversations in Italian are very valuable to me, and I appreciate Denise’s great patience as I learn.
