Maria Conte Programs

“Maria is a wonderful instructor and is very passionate about teaching her students! I started taking her course with a basic understanding of Italian, and she helped me flourish. I can now speak with my grandmother in Italian and feel much more confident conversationally. I highly recommend taking her courses to improve your language skills!” 

“My wife and I took two conversation classes with Maria Conte. Both were very helpful for improving our pronunciation, listening and speaking skills. The classes were well organized. Professoressa Maria listened carefully, spoke slowly, and gave us personalized suggestions and help. We also enjoyed ourselves which helped us relax and speak more freely. I recommend the conversation classes as a supplement for students who are studying Italian in more academic settings, or as a review for those who know some Italian and want to informally review and practice speaking. I also took a private tutorial, “Spanish for Travelers” from Professoressa Maria. It was intense, and very helpful. Maria Conte is an excellent teacher with loads of experience and a warm, personal approach.”

“I recently completed the Italian level B1.2 class with Maria Conte. I really enjoyed these lessons! She made them both informative and fun, combining book exercises with spontaneous conversations about our daily lives. Above all else, it gave me the opportunity to speak Italian in a welcoming environment, and even after just 10 lessons I could feel my listening and speaking skills improving. I already enrolled in B1.3 course. I highly recommend her, and would encourage anyone interested in learning Italian to attend one of her classes.”
