What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can teach and mediate languages (Italian-focused), support people with clear communication, and work in a respectful, service-minded team—where accuracy, empathy, and practical outcomes matter.

I’m a language mediator focused on Italian for foreigners, with hands-on teaching experience from A1 to B2. I bring a communication-first approach that helps students move from basic understanding to real confidence.

Since 09/03/2020, I teach Italian to foreigners in private settings, adapting lessons to learners’ needs and levels. I also combine language work with cultural mediation so my students feel supported both linguistically and socially.

I’ve also worked as an interpreter (RU-IT and IT-RU) and supported Ukrainian refugees through translation of documents, which sharpened my accuracy, confidentiality, and calm problem-solving under pressure.

Outside language roles, I’ve developed strong client-facing and organizational skills through hospitality work and front-office tasks during tour operations—welcoming people, managing day-to-day operations, and keeping processes running smoothly.
