Cecilia

Marina K. from Norwalk, CT

Cecilia is a wonderful teacher. She's patient when needed, but will make you open up if you're not confident enough to speak up, especially in the beginning. Material flow and pace are highly customized to the student's needs and no stone is left unturned. I especially love the cultural tidbits I learn with every lesson. That is hard to get from a book or from someone who isn't a native speaker. I thoroughly enjoy every hour, so much so that I completely lose track of time. Don't contact her, because I want all of her time to myself. Update: Just realized I have only had 10 lessons with Lia and the progress, I must say, has been exponential. Love Lia and love WyzAnt. Had I stuck with Rosetta Stone, I would be sounding like a 5 year old for ages to come.

Celia is a great tutor. Our lessons are comprehensive and fun. She is always prepared and continuously emails information and references to aide in your studies.

Cecilia is very patient and understanding of my needs/ability to grasp the Italian language. She is not only teaching the language, but the culture, history and social dynamic of Italy and its people. Excellent experience. I highly recommend Cecilia has a tutor.

Rosemary C. from Mahopac, NY

Lia is a phenomenal tutor and a wonderful person! Every week I look forward to being with her. She gives so much of her heart and soul to our sessions and she is becoming a good friend! I am learning so much more than just the language. She is exposing us to all aspects and that is what makes her unique. My husband and I feel Lia is a perfect fit for us.

There have been four lessons so far, and I can already see improvement. Cecilia has shown great patience and a fine sense of humor as she attempts to teach not only the Italian language but also the culture and spirit of Italy. I highly recommend her.

Mary Louise P. from Teaneck, NJ

I look forward to each week as the learning experience becomes more exciting each time. Lia encourages questions and always has the answer ready. She explains all details very thoroughly. I can't wait until next week!

She took a lot of time to review where I am in the language and what my goals are. Great instructor

Daniel D. from Yonkers, NY

Lia has remarkable credentials and is highly experienced in Italian. Not only has she been teaching for a long time and knows the language inside and out, but she is patient, caring, and very involved in her students academics and progress.. Just one lesson with Lia will make you want to learn. I am so happy that I found her, and I am looking forward to working with her for a long time to come.. Plus, she is also one of sweetest people you'll ever meet. They just don't make teachers like her anymore...So I highly recommend her to all.
