My first lesson with Karen was fantastic. She is challenging as she is friendly, and eases you out of your comfort zone to really begin speaking the new language you want to learn. Looking forward to what the future lessons bring!

Karen is amazing. I loved my time with her. She is incredibly knowledgeable and so easy to work with. She made everything a breeze and best of all I got to feel like I was back in Italy!

Karen is a wonderful person and teacher. She is patient, kind and incredible accommodating (with in recon) for scheduling sessions. She has even found time to tech while I am still in the states and she is in Italy for work and vacation. My needs as a learner are very specific to challenges I have with auditory learning and she has been great in adjusting her teaching style to support me.

We are so happy we have Karen as our teacher! I started my two sons, 4 & 8, with her as well as my own lesson with her about 5 weeks ago. She makes learning Italian fun, she's got great energy and is enthusiastic but also patient. Plus she's from Rome so she always makes sure our pronunciation sounds great! We all love our lessons with Karen : )

Excellent lesson plans and instruction. Karen makes language learning simple and fun.

Karen has an intuitive sense of a student's needs and abilities and fashions a lesson accordingly. She is a very pleasant and supportive teacher.

Karen is perfect teacher!

She is a very professional instructor, very focus, she is a great option.

I loved my lesson! Karen was not only a great instructor but I had so much fun!!

Karen has great rapport and a fun way to teach. She's the real deal - "autentica"

Karen is a great instructor and has tailored our lessons to my specific level and needs. She takes extra time to explain concepts and also spends extra time to provide customized study material between lessons.

I'm three classes in, and so far am very happy with Karen as a tutor. She is a great teacher, very patient, and has a ton of prepared tools and activities to help scaffold learning the material. She is also well versed in the structure of language so we can talk things like articles, reflexive verbs, etc...!

My husband, Chuck, and I are taking lessons from Karen and highly recommend her. She is well organized and very patient. She helps us with our objectives for learning Italian. We are going to Italy this year and expect to be capable of communicating and understanding Italian. We just think she is a great teacher and support system for our learning...

Karen is a fantastic teacher. She pays attention to how much I know, and pitches each class at exactly the right level. I have learned a lot! She listens to what I want to achieve in our lessons and I really appreciate that.
We are doing a lot of speaking about real world situations - shopping, cooking, visiting, ordering food. I could not be happier with Karen and her teaching style.

I have been learning the Italian language and as a beginner, I reached a point where I was no longer progressing. Prior I was in 2 local classroom settings, using duolingo and using as many internet tools that I could find. I needed something else to move me forward. Karen is helping me with continuing my learning with just the right knowledge of the language for my level. Perfetto!!
