Linda D. offers English Lessons and Italian Lessons

Cynthia H. from New York, NY Linda and I had a marathon six-hour conversation lesson on Sunday, when she accompanied me to Princeton, New Jersey, for an event at the Dorothea House Italian cultural center. We spent the first three hours in private one-on-one conversation, where Linda's excellent command of Italian and English enabled us to have a flowing conversation in many different topics. I have studied Italian for four years, so I am not fluent, but Linda was very experienced in allowing me to speak without over-correcting me, but naturally helping me only when I paused and needed help, offering Italian suggestions and explanations. When I asked for an explanation in English, she was able to clearly explain all grammatical issues in her advanced English. The next two hours were spent at the Dorothea House, where Linda mixed easily with all the members of our local Italian meetup group, as well as the Board members and volunteers of the Dorothea House and fellow guests. Everyone in our group was delighted with her skills and she added a great deal to the afternoon. The final hour was again spent on one-on-one conversation on our return trip from Princeton to Manhattan. It was a most valuable day of Italian language practice and I highly recommend Linda for her expert teaching skills, expert language background, patience and kindness, and adaptability to mix with a group of Italian speakers at all levels with the stamina for a six-hour conversation lesson! Cinque stelle!
