I was fortunate to find Patrizia when I was searching for Italian lessons for a business trip. I enjoyed my lessons with her so much that I decided to continue after my trip.  Patrizia’s lessons are engaging & varied, which allowed me to develop conversation skills. I also learned to read & write in Italian. Whether you are seeking lessons for an upcoming trip or want to master a language, Patricia will get you there.

Patricia Neiman is a language teacher extraordinaire! In a few lessons she helped me revive my Spanish skills so that I could navigate for a few weeks in Costa Rica with confidence. Patty is an intuitive teacher. She chose the perfect subject matter on which to focus in each lesson. She was clear and simple in her explanations. She made the lessons interesting, relevant and interactive, and she motivated me to practice on my own in between sessions. It was an amazing and fulfilling experience studying Spanish with Patty!

I studied Italian with Patricia for over three years. I found Patricia to be a very dedicated and professional teacher. Our classes were an excellent combination of Italian grammar and conversation. Both grammar and exercise material that Patricia employed to teach me were excellent. While I was studying Italian with her I was making good progress. Since I have now relocated, I had to stop our classes unfortunately because I only like in person lessons. Still, I highly recommend her; she is a competent and professional instructor.

I had the pleasure of knowing Patricia while I was enrolled in an adult language class in conversational French. Patty was immediately able to establish the perfect learning atmosphere for adults of varying abilities in order to reawaken our long-dormant French conversational skills. I looked forward to each class every week, where I knew my knowledge of French would be expanded in both a very enjoyable and challenging manner. Patty has the talent, not only as a native speaker, to engage us in our pursuit of greater fluency and improved vocabulary, but also in her ability to keep the subject matter relevant and interesting, especially considering our completely different levels of fluency in French conversation and comprehension. I am already planning on registering for next semester’s conversational French class with Patty.  I am aware that my vocabulary and fluency have improved considerably as a result of having Patty as my teacher. Merci beaucoup, Patty!

I studied French with Patty to refresh my language skills because I dream of spending a few months in Paris every year. What surprised me the most in her lessons was her enthusiasm. She conveyed engaging topics to her students and motivated them to talk. And, of course, her knowledge of the language. I learned a lot from her, and I greatly improved my pronunciation! I recommend Patty as a teacher if you want to practice and improve a foreign language.
