Suzanne said: Absolutely loved doing this course with Joe. I started my Italian learning elsewhere (Leichhardt) and found learning with him just so much easier. He is a trained teacher that makes it very clear what the learning intentions and success criteria are every week. He uses a variety of resources that appeal to all sorts of learners. He’s very approachable and really structures the course to suit the class. I was hesitant to study online - but now it is my preferred way to learn Italian. Thank you Joe. I am hoping that I can continue studying Italian with you next term.
