When Mr Bettega taught me, he taught from the heart! Mr Bettega brought Italy to the classroom as we learned diverse and interesting topics. His pride and enthusiasms in teaching Italy’s beautiful language and culture sparkled my own passion for the language learning. I was never afraid of making mistakes in his class, as Mr Bettega’s classroom was one of understanding and patience. He could even make grammar lessons fun!

I started learning Spanish at Speak the World school earlier this year with no previous language skills. Marzio is a truly inspirational teacher with learning methods that compliment my schedule. In particular, the flexibility of the 1-2-1 sessions have been very useful. I highly recommend his school to anyone seeking to improve or begin a new language.

We have been extremely impressed with the Spanish lessons our daughters have received from Marzio since enrolling. Both our daughters are at different levels of learning and Marzio has clearly demonstrated the ability to both understand the needs of each pupil by setting out different challenges and tasks that help compliment their abilities. The class is engaging and both our daughters look forward to attending each week in a group environment that always encourages interaction and enjoyment of the subject, which is a clear recipe for success.

Professor Bettega makes learning a language and grammar fun. (Charlotte) I really enjoyed learning Italian this year. The way we were able to discuss topics in Italian during lesson made me more confident. (Molly) The enthusiasm Sir had in class really helped me to learn and enjoy all aspect of learning the Italian language. (Niamh). I enjoyed how he makes sure that we all understand our verbs and grammar before each lesson. (Thandi) Most enjoyable part of learning a language is when you get to participate. This helps you to improve. (Nicola)
