When I lived in Milano in 2008, I took my language lessons with Andrea Campisano. A very pleasant experience, both conversational, in writing as in learning about Italy in general. Strongly recommend Andrea Campisano and his team of teachers at Talk@Work!

Viktoria Bratushka, Head of Brand Activation, Ukraine

Andrea is an an excellent teacher and a great professional. I was lucky to meet him during my MBA program, when I first came to Italy, and, since then, he helped me to improve my Italian basically from zero to a decent C1/C2 level. I really appreciate his dedication & commitment, high level of professionalism and flexibility. One of the best teachers I?ve ever had. Even now, Andrea and Talk@Work is my reference for some linguistic assistance I need in my professional activity.

Andrea was my Italian professor in 2020-21. His method of teaching Italian is dynamic, personalized, and efficient. He makes you fall in love with the language and the culture. You can tell that he enjoys teaching and sharing his knowledge about Italy. After following his courses my Italian improved and I could talk and write correctly.

Andrea is one of the best foreign language instructors I have ever had the honor to call my teacher.

His practical approach, professionalism, and most importantly his attitude are what sets him apart from his peers.

Andrea was my Italian professor at university. He was very kind, patient, and a great teacher. He makes learning Italian very easy because he does a great job of breaking down the grammatical rules and encouraging you to have conversations in Italian which is the best way to learn. I highly recommend Andrea as a professor! I advise Andrea and Talk@Work to university students and corporations.

Andrea was my Italian teacher when I was an exchange student at Politecnico di Milano for two semesters. Prior to being his student, I had studied italian only for a few months so I was in his beginners class. He did an excellent job teaching my class what we needed to learn to live in Italy without using almost any English. He was very engaging and fun. He goes above and beyond for his students.

Andrea was not only a teacher of language, but also Italian culture and friendship. My time in Italy was amazing and Andrea took time out of his busy schedule to ensure that his class had a great understanding of the language. He also took our class out on excursions around Milan where we could practice ordering in Italian. I made life long friends and I will always be thankful for his lessons and friendship.

Wubbo Tempel, Netherland Former Managing director of Elsevier Masson, Italy

I highly recommend Andrea as an excellent Italian language tutor. Andrea taught me when I directed Elsevier?s Italian office. Andrea explains backgrounds of expressions and phrases, which helps the understanding greatly. Clearly, Andrea works from a broad knowledge base. Also, Andrea is a pleasant and serious person, which is very important in a tutorial relationship.

I got to know the founder of Talk@Work through my MBA program in which he taught Italian. Apart from being an excellent tutor, Andrea is extremely knowledgeable in all aspects of the Italian (and world!) culture, literature, history, and art. His lessons were always stimulating, and his approach challenging and encouraging - just what a student needs to continuously improve. Andrea also has a very open personality and a great sense of humor, so I would recommend him and Andrea?s team of teachers!
