What are my students saying?

  • "As someone who believed I was too dyslexic to ever learn a language, Italiano with Heather has been a surprising, fun, and overall incredible experience. Thanks to her engaging teaching style, I learnt more in 6-weeks than I did during the whole of secondary school! Highly recommend learning with Heather to anyone, so you too can discover the joy of speaking Italian."

  • “I want to express my heartfelt gratitude for everything Heather taught me during the past six weeks. Thanks to her engaging and supportive teaching style, I now feel much more confident speaking Italian, and learning the language feels like a truly achievable goal. You have a wonderful way of making the lessons both fun and effective, blending humor with practical tips that stick with me. I appreciated how you encouraged us to embrace mistakes as part of the process and created a welcoming environment where we could all grow. For anyone considering this class, I’d say it’s an absolute must—not just for learning Italian, but for gaining the confidence to use it in real-world situations while enjoying the journey. Thank you to Heather for inspiring me to keep learning and for making this such a positive experience!“
