Who am I?

My family is from Tuscany and I  grew up speaking both English and Italian. On the first of my many many visits to the region,  I fell in love with the medieval villages, the olive groves, the sunflowers and the majestic mountains.  I knew this would be a world worth pursuing. 
 I Graduated with a Bachelor of Arts degree in languages and a diploma of Education. For more than 40 years I have taught students of all ages.  All of which  have expressed a variety of reasons for wanting to immerse themselves in the Italian culture and language. As a native speaker, I adore the language and culture of Italy and it is a pleasure to assist and encourage students to discover even more of Italy, it’s culture and it's people in a way that is fun and achievable!

            In Italian and authentic!
