Our students’ reviews
“Avevo preso lezioni di italiano per un po’ di tempo e la decisione migliore che ho preso è stata quella di passare alle lezioni private con Roberto. Posso davvero apprezzare il talento innato di Roberto come insegnante di italiano. Estremamente paziente, è molto competente, fornisce istruzioni altamente professionali, ma in modo molto chiaro, affabile e divertente. Il suo genuino entusiasmo e amore per l’insegnamento dell’italiano, uniti alla sua vasta conoscenza della cultura italiana e della quotidianità, hanno davvero dato vita alla lingua per me. È stato un vero vantaggio nel mio apprendimento dell’italiano. Lo stile di insegnamento coinvolgente e confortevole di Roberto mi ha davvero aiutato a diventare un parlante di italiano molto più sicuro , uno dei miei obiettivi principali.
Consiglio vivamente Roberto a chiunque voglia imparare l’italiano.” Russell M., New Jersey
“I learned from a friend that Roberto Rovelli was giving lessons online, and since I had
studied with him briefly during a weeklong intensive Italian class in Bologna, I decided
to try semi private lessons with Roberto, and I’m so glad I did! In the past year, I have
strengthened my command of Italian grammar and conversation skills. I have just
begun a series of private lessons and can already see improvement in my conversation
and pronunciation skills.
As a teacher, Roberto is always enthusiastic and encouraging with an excellent ability
to communicate the nuances of the language. He clearly has a passion for Italian
language and culture – and this is infectious.
I can highly recommend Roberto to anyone wishing to learn or improve their
understanding of the Italian language!“
