About Me

InterestsArtWritingTravelHistoryReading
I’m a historian and archivist and I deeply love languages and cultures. I am a native Italian speaker with degrees in History and Historical Sciences, currently pursuing a PhD at the Vatican Apostolic Library focusing on archives. I have been teaching Italian and English for 12 years, working with both foreign and local students and I've studied Latin and Ancient Greek at school and university. My goal is to make every student feel comfortable, confident, and motivated, creating lessons that are personalized, engaging, and adapted to your needs. My motto is: “The student is the teacher.” This means that in every lesson, you decide what we focus on, based on your needs and interests. I see teaching as a mutual learning experience, which is why I love receiving feedback during our lessons. Sometimes I prepare materials in advance, and I can suggest apps, videos, movies, books, or TV shows that I find helpful. I can also give optional homework if the student wishes. Occasionally my schedule may be limited due to personal commitments, but don’t hesitate to message me - we will always find a way to arrange a lesson that works for you!

I've been preparing to sing a program of Neapolitan songs in concert and my lessons with Olga have been invaluable. She critiques my pronunciation, helps me translate text, and even takes the time to do her own research into the history of each song so that I can have a deeper understanding of them. She even takes the time to analyze recordings of the songs with me. These sessions have made a huge difference for me both linguistically and musically, and I can't wait for more!!

An incredible and fascinating 4 months trip inside Dante Alighieri’s life, time, and works, including the structure and philosophical roots of the Divine Comedy. Thank you so much Olga for this course !!

Grazie mille! Una lezione davvero piacevole e stimolante con Olga! Le sue spiegazioni sul vocabolario e sulle espressioni sono molto utili, così come il fatto di averle nel documento.
