I started this fascinating adventure in 2000, after some years of working as a teacher of Italian as a foreign language.
I graduated in Foreign Languages several years ago now. After years spent studying foreign languages I ended up teaching my own language and not German or English, which was what my studies should have brought me to: I call it the paradox of my life.

I started teaching Italian to foreign students soon after getting my university degree in Foreign Languages and Literatures in 1991.
My degree allowed me to teach English to Italian students, but a little exposure to teaching experience made me realize very soon that this wasn’t my dream job. Still today I’m very grateful to those who gave me the chance to teach to students who wished or needed to pick up my mother tongue.
