You are a truly amazing teacher and here are my observations that make me say that:
- You masterfully included diverse highlights of the city’s Baroque architecture, artists, popes, history.
- You masterfully adapted to the diverse learning styles, levels and interests of the participants as well as to their varying mobility abilities. Pre-reading lists and materials just one example.
- Patience of 100% like I couldn’t believe — with participants, the unexpected, the itinerary changes.
- Humor, humor, humor.
- Bi-lingual.
- Master of the content and of the location — nothing simply memorized for that portion of class; you live and breathe it — make it come alive! We could all feel and be affected by that passione!
You are truly a marvelous guide and although we slept all the way home in the car, we loved walking with you and experiencing Rome through your passionate eyes.
My family and I want to thank you for making our tours in Rome so memorable. Alan and I believe that the kids will look back on this trip as one of the most memorable experiences of their teen years. Thank you for being our guide!
Thank you for a great tour of Rome. You made history come alive for my mom, sister and I.
I really enjoyed the explanations and lectures at each site. Your knowledge and love of the subject matter came through and made the experience extremely enjoyable. I wouldn’t change a thing.The two trips outside of Rome were wonderful and I’m so glad that you included them.
I was in Rome once as a 19 year-old for three days prior to the class. Also prior to the class, I read three of the books and all of the articles; made several learning sheet outlines for myself. As a result of the prep work I did under your reference materials as well as the week-long class, I now have the confidence & incentive to return to Rome on my own and continue exploring and studying it. So, I’d say you accomplished a lot with me!
Thank you, thank you, Giulia, and especially thank you for the terrific class. I learned a lot and enjoyed every minute. We saw things we never would have seen and having you as our guide and interpreter was wonderful.
