I am a permanent literature teacher and have taught in Italian secondary schools for more than twenty years. I am qualified to teach in secondary schools in the humanities (Italian, Literature, History, Geography, Civic Education) and I obtained a PhD in Latin Literature and Philology in 2016. During the doctoral period I had the possibility of teaching preparatory and preparatory courses in Latin Literature. Thanks to my rather varied professional experience, I am used to dealing with different levels of linguistic competence, both Italian and Latin My aim is to convey to my students the passion for the Latin language and literature, to understand not only its structures and cultural substratum, but also the links with modern languages. Only in this way, I believe, will they be able to have the tools to restore the word to its profound value (semantic, pragmatic, cultural) and avoid the improper use that new media often impose.
