Great Italian Teacher

Gina O is a superb Italian teacher. She is a native speaker and is extremely knowledgeable about how to teach someone to speak Italian. She is excellent on promoting conversation, consistently correcting mistakes so that you really improve and also gives you a fantastic background on current Italian culture. I recommend her highly!

Just What I Needed

In my first lesson Gina taught me Italian history, culture and how to conjugate verbs. She clearly loves what she is teaching and her enthusiasm and energy if infectious - in a good way!

Victoria, 12 lessons with Gina

very well prepared

Gina shows up with a plan and works towards improving my Italian in very specific areas using specific exercises. She also is great at sending me reference me materials to work on during the week. She is a real professional.

Great instructor

My first lesson with Gina was excellent. As a fellow instructor, I found Gina’s instructional skills to be outstanding. I look forward to continuing my Italian language education with Gina.

Darrin, 131 lessons with Gina

Gina spectacularly knowledgeable about grammar, and a beautiful Italian speaker.

I am traveling to Italy and needed a few key phrases for a speech, and quickly. She is so much more accomplished than simple conversation....but still, it was what I needed in one lesson.

Great tutor

Gina quickly got me reacquainted with Italian before a trip to Italy. I'm very grateful for the great lessons in language, culture and even some etymology. Thank you, Gina!

Brandon, 5 lessons with Gina

Flexible and helpful

I have enjoyed working with Gina. She has an excellent text book she recommends which allows you to do your homework in advance of the tutoring session and then maximize your time with her practicing pronunciation, learning about verbs and developing confidence. I highly recommend her.

Gina - great Italian teacher :)

My first lesson with Gina. I am looking for conversational skills. Gina is very pleasant, patient and a great teacher. Had a one hour lesson during which Gina gave me some assignment and is putting me on track to get structure, vocabulary and indispensable grammar. Coming back for more. Gracie Gina. Ciao. Patrick

Knowledgeable and caring tutor

Gina is very knowledgeable, patient and really wants to help me learn Italian. She tells me the etymology of words back to Latin, so I know I'm learning the world's best language.

Excellent Italian Tutor!

If you really want to improve your Italian, Gina is a terrific tutor. I've been taking lessons with Gina for over a year now. She is patient, knowledgeable, and wonderful at explaining complicated points of grammar in a way I am able to understand. I especially like that while I usually prepare assignments, our lessons can go anywhere, from a review of the lesson material, to articles we discuss, to wide- ranging discussions of personal or political topics.
