Legal Question in Real Estate Law in Connecticut

Termination of month to month tenancy

My question is threefold:

1) In Connecticut, what notice, if any, is required for a tenant to terminate an oral, month to month tenancy ?

2) Does the answer to #1 change if the tenant is a holdover from an old lease containing the following clause:

''If the Tenant continues to occupy the Leased Premises with the consent of the Landlord after the termination of this Lease, the tenancy shall be month to month and either party may terminate the tenancy at any time by sending notice to the other party.''

3) Is oral notice under the above clause sufficient to terminate the tenancy ?
