I am a single mom, originally from South America and moving to Switzerland, in an Italian area,  with my 8 year old daughter soon. My daughter has taken private Italian lessons with Maria meeting three times weekly online and in-person for a few months. My daughter learned quite a lot and enjoyed every lesson. Maria did a wonderful job in preparing my daughter for both language and culture. She is very kind, flexible and cooperative. 

“I first met signora Conte several years ago in a Montessori school in Greater Boston where she was my daughter’s favorite teacher. Then, destiny wanted that years later our entire family reunite with Mrs. Conte again, but in a different setting. My daughter took Italian lessons with Prof. Conte and thanks to her fabulous teaching, she was accepted into the Italian program at her university. Subsequently, my daughter qualified for a scholarship and she spent a semester in Italy. My husband and I, both enrolled in Italian classes with Maria Conte as well so we could visit our daughter in Italy. We are all very grateful of her terrific teaching. Her books are straight forward, the grammar is clearly presented and is very easy to follow. Being able to communicate in Italian during our trip was a lot of fun. Prof. Maria has a warm welcoming personality, treats people with respect, and is highly dedicated to her students. We HIGHLY RECOMMEND Prof. Conte.”

”I just enrolled in my third Italian class with Maria Conte. I continue with her classes for many reasons: her clear and helpful explanations, her keen listening ear, and her patience, warmth and humor. She has a wealth of knowledge about Italian language and culture, and she makes learning Italian fun!
