Latin is the root of not only the Romance languages, but also European culture.
Learning this language and its literature can be an extremely enriching and exciting challenge.
My lessons aim to provide the tools to translate and better appreciate Latin texts, emphasizing how Latin words and structures are still alive in modern languages.

Italian is my mother tongue, I love its sound, its grammar structure, the culture it expresses.
I hope to pass on to my students my passion and enthusiasm, thanks to the experience I made at university, where I studied ancient Greek and Latin, then working as a teacher in high school, and gaining the DITALS, which is a diploma to teach Italian to foreigners.
I have experience with students of different levels and age, and I gear each lesson towards my students' goals and preferences.
