One of the best professor in UW-Madison I have encountered so far. Truly cares about her students and not just grades. I have learned a lot in her class and she is always helpful. Class is easy if you put efforts and follow her schedule. Easy A. Great professor.Rate My Professors ↗
She's a very skilled teacher. She cares more that her students learn Italian than she does about grades, and she gives very personal feedback. I would have loved to have had her for Ital 182, but my schedule wouldn't allow for it.Rate My Professors ↗
Hands down one of the best professors I've had. If you have a chance to take her honors intro to Italian class do it!!!Rate My Professors ↗
She is honestly the best professor you may ever have. Tiziana truly cares about the students in this class and she makes it fun, I actually wanted to go to class. She is a great professor and person and she will take the time to get to know all of you. If you like Italian or want to start it, take this class!Rate My Professors ↗
She is literally the best. She truly cares about her students and is willing to help you outside of class if you need it. The class is fun and she is a really great teacher of the language. If you like Italian take her class!Rate My Professors ↗
One of the best professors I have ever had!! Professor Serafini has boundless enthusiasm, and is incredibly helpful and caring. I also learned a ton. In fact, class was so interesting and fun that I hope to study abroad in Italy someday.Rate My Professors ↗
