Message

At Babbel, I teach Italian and Spanish to adult learners in one-to-one and small-group lessons. At Cercle des Langues, I design and deliver Italian courses tailored to French-speaking learners.

At A Door to Italy S.R.L., I taught Italian language and culture across proficiency levels, including programmes for deaf learners. I also supported course planning and academic coordination, and liaised with exam bodies to ensure compliance with examination regulations.

As a certified CELI and DELE examiner, I conduct written and oral examinations within regulated frameworks. At Speexx, I support corporate users of a digital learning platform through customer guidance and training.
