“My son and I took Greek cooking classes with Maria Conte. My husband is Greek, therefore my son gave me some gift certificates to be applied to cooking instruction with Maria as he had already taken a few classes with her in company of his girlfriend. I am not a great cook myself, but learning how to make stuffed vine leaves, spanakopita, tzatziki and baklava was an absolute extraordinary experience that increased my self-confidence in the kitchen. Thank you Maria for your gracious assistance!”

“Maria Conte came to our house for an Italian cooking class with my son. And yes, it was a gift for my son’s 16th birthday. With extreme kindness and skill, Maria and my son prepared an entire menu from appetizer to dessert, not excluding handmade pasta. The whole lesson was conducted in Italian. My son well enjoyed Maria’s guidance, learned new recipes and practiced Italian all at the same time. It was a great experience even for me who was watching everything from the next room. The food was delicious! I will hire Maria for future cooking lessons, and I want to recommend her to others, both young and old, as well.” – Ella H. Wilson – Newton, MA – Winter 2025

I have taken two Italian classes (A2.2 and A2.3), with Maria and have really enjoyed myself both times. She is excellent at facilitating conversation and creating an open and welcoming environment for learning. My grammar and conversation skills have improved a lot thanks to Maria. I always look forward to coming to class!
