Francesca è fantastica. Mi piace chiacchierare con lei ogni settimana. È un ottimo modo per imparare e praticare l’italiano.
From John
Francesca is organised, careful, insightful and adaptable in her approach to helping me with my Italian. Her preferred way of teaching (me) involves conversing and instructing all the time in Italan, with a focus on grammar as much as on conversation - Francesca really knows when to let small mistakes pass in the interests of encouraging fluency, and when to interject with grammatical rationale. I am enjoying the course very much, and at the same time I find myself quite tired after every session - the balance works very well, I think.
Grazie mille, John.
From Sarah
Although I found the tutor professional, good at communicating and friendly, specific arrangements could not be initiated to start lessons
Thank you for your feedback Sarah.
From Paula
Francesca is a very good tutor. I have been with others and they dont come close to how well Francesca teaches. She is so patient, encouraging and structures her classes so well, covering all bases, reading, writing and speaking. I would recommend her very highly.
Grazie, Paula!
From Jonathan
Francesca is a dream tutor. She is friendly, professional and efficient. She is absolutely attuned to your particular needs as a student, picks up on them very fast and identifies what it is that you need to improve. And most of all she evidently WANTS to help you improve. I can’t recommend her too highly.
Grazie Jonathan! Spero di essere all'altezza del tuo lusinghiero commento.
From Barbara
Francesca has been very quick in responding and has provided the right support and information. We are now doing tutoring lessons with her and we are very happy.
Thank you!

From Heather
Francesca is an amazing tutor. We do a combination of listening, writing, reading and checking homework after speaking for an hour or more. She has the ability to explain key grammar skills clearly and effectively. She’s tuned into and interested in my work life and interests. I feel she cares. This has made me feel comfortable and able to push myself to learn, grow and practice Italian with her. I feel respected, comfortable, safe and able to take the risks to venture out of my comfort zone, make mistakes and learn!
Grazie mille Heather, your words mean a lot to me!
From Silvia
I have been having lessons with Francesca for a few months and she has been able to support me so much in my studies. I am an upper intermediate level. Her lesson's are always engaging and interesting, and challenging also which is important. She is very punctual and easy to contact and responds very quickly. I would recommend her to anyone wanting to improve their italian at any level.
Grazie mille, Silvia. E' un piacere fare lezione con te!
