I make a work-related trip to Italy every other year. When I came home from the 2017 trip I vowed to learn Italian, so I signed up for the Brookline Adult Ed class and Maria was my teacher. After I completed all the courses offered there, I continued to study with Maria, joining one of her small groups of students. Our Monday nights are filled with fun and learning. Talking about what we did last week, our plans for the next, this disparate group has gotten to know each other and care about each other—in the here and now. And all while learning Italian. Though it may be hard to get myself out of the house in the cold and dark now that it’s winter, I am always glad to be met by Maria’s warmth and upbeat approach. And, during this 2019 trip to Italy, I could read all the advertisements and signs, make myself understood, and even eavesdrop a bit. Thank you, Maria!

“I’m 90 years old, and wanted to make my last trip to Italy this year. To surprise my family, I took some Italian private lessons with Maria Conte. She kindly and patiently guided me through her fabulous textbook. To my surprise I learned quite a lot. I highly recommend Professoressa Conte to anyone who would like to learn Italian!” – Joseph S. Milton, MA – Fall 2022
This conversational Italian course was a wonderful experience — a perfect balance of listening and speaking. Each session included a variety of engaging activities that sparked lively conversation and laughter. It truly made learning a joy!”
