“My coworkers and I had the pleasure of working with Irene for over a year to learn Italian! We work for an Italian soccer team and needed someone who could come to the office a few times a week to teach us a little Italian. Given our lessons were during the workday, we needed someone who could be flexible with our scheduling and Irene certainly was. She also customized and catered lessons to our needs based on upcoming events or the specific situations we would be needing to know certain Italian conversation. Our lessons at the office became something we all looked forward to and truly enjoyed thanks to Irene’s fun personality. Grazie mille a Irene...she’s the best!”

“I’ve been having a great experience with Irene as my Italian language instructor. She’s a native Italian and speaks English just as well. More importantly she is a great teacher, not just because she speaks Italian, but because she has an academic understanding of how to teach language and grammar. Most of all, I enjoy my lessons with her because she makes me feel comfortable despite my constant mistakes - which thankfully are becoming fewer!”— Joe Vassallo - business owner

“I started as a total beginner. Lessons consist of not just vocabulary and grammar but culture, current events, improving my ear for the accent etc./ecc. It makes perfect sense that a musician makes a great language teacher. Irene’s instruction provides an opportunity to discover finer details of language, both Italian and American. Ultimately it has become a small and enriching daily practice.”— Katherine Marshall
