WHAT MY STUDENTS SAID ABOUT ME:

I love how encouraging she is!

I used to think it was impossible to learn more than one language at once, and I even had trouble maintaining my Spanish while I switched to learning French or German. All that changed when I met Elisa Polese.

Elisa is completely fluent in more languages than I can count. She is teaching me Spanish, French and German all at the same time, and it's working. I have significantly improved in both of my weaker languages while maintaining and even improving my Spanish some too.

I am blown away by Elisa's ability to explain so many concepts in all these different languages. She easily zeros in on what I need to work on, and in minutes can erase confusion that I've had for years.

I love how encouraging she is. When I finally grasp even a basic skill she makes me feel like I just conquered a mountain. She corrects my daily homework quickly and with lots of praise. Her patience and understanding are so helpful as I push myself to take on this new challenge.

Multilingual lessons with Elisa cost more than I've paid for traditional lessons, but I've never regretted it for a minute. For the first time ever I'm achieving my goal of advancing all my languages at once, and not taking that step back I always used to face when starting a new language.

Ich kann Elisa als Sprachlehrerin unbedingt empfehlen!

Der drei-Sprachen-Kurs mit Elisa hat großen Spaß gemacht! Aus ihrem fundierten Sprachschatz zahlreicher Sprachen haben wir uns im Kurs auf Italienisch, Spanisch und Französisch konzentriert. Der direkte Vergleich dieser drei Sprachen hat so manches Aha-Erlebnis hervorgerufen.

In kurzer Zeit haben wir dank Elisas didaktischer Fähigkeiten Grundkenntnisse in allen drei Sprachen erlangt oder verstaubte Kenntnisse wieder aufgefrischt. Mit ihrer italienischen Art und viel Humor hat Elisa den Unterricht immer sehr lebhaft und abwechslungsreich gestaltet. Er war eine gute Mischung aus Neuem und Wiederholung, besonders mit vielen Sprechübungen.

Ich kann Elisa als Sprachlehrerin unbedingt empfehlen! Muchas gracias, Merci, Grazie mille, Elisa!

Весёлая, дружеская атмосфера

Мы с моей коллегой Татьяной побывали у Элизы на уроках эсперанто и на занятии 3-мя языками сразу: португальским, хинди и греческим. Нам очень понравился её подход, подача материала и весёлая, дружеская атмосфера на занятиях. За совсем небольшой срок мы успели приобрести практические навыки на совершенно новых для нас языках. И, конечно же, заразились энтузиазмом Элизы. Теперь с её подачи мы продолжаем изучать эсперанто!

"The “holiday programme” starts a couple of weeks into August as I cannot speak Italian. For the cost of a good double room I get 10 lessons from Elisa Polese on Skyp which proves to be perfect."
