As my name says, I am very fond of languages.

I am Italian, and I speak English, Spanish, French, Portuguese, and German in order of fluency. I teach the first three languages professionally, and I am a certified language teacher. 

 

After my studies, I lived and worked in the USA, France, Ireland, Spain, and have been living in Costa Rica since 2009. I have students from a variety of countries, and I am familiar with many of their accents and customs. I love to observe and make treasure of cultural differences, and I wish for many to do the same. 

 

I teach absolute beginners through advanced, focusing on phonetics (accent, pronunciation, intonation), conversation, and in-depth grammar.

I specialize in people who are planning to travel to Italy for work, school, or vacation. I can give you pointers to better understand any regional variation in accent and lexicon, as well as better prepare you for the cultural differences between North, Center, and South.

​

Besides that, I am a vegetarian cook, permaculture gardener, potter, and somewhat of a woodcarver.
