I am Dea, and I hold an academic background specialized in language teaching and linguistics, with a PhD in the field. For years, I've been passionately dedicated to education — working with students as well as future foreign language teachers, including at the university level, where I’ve had the opportunity to train those who will one day teach others themselves.
I have degrees in Italian, Latin, and Ancient Greek, and I’ve studied various modern languages — both out of passion and to be able to communicate with people from around the world. I strongly believe that each language is a key that opens cultural doors and fosters deep human connections!
Ik als leerkracht
Those who know me in the classroom describe me as sociable and empathetic, with a clear and engaging teaching style. I’m creative and original in designing playful, interactive activities — qualities I find essential for building a calm and stimulating learning environment. When I’m passionate about something, it shows: my enthusiasm is contagious! I love to involve, motivate, and turn each lesson into an opportunity for both growth and joy. At the same time, I’m a practical and efficient person: I’m goal-oriented and determined, but never at the expense of enjoying the journey. Every step is a chance to learn, connect, and smile together. Let's combine business with pleasure!
Mijn lessen en manier van lesgeven
The teaching methods and strategies I use are varied and always flexible—they adapt to each learner’s needs, learning style, and goals. I will tailor every lesson to suit your individual requirements.
Do you need an Italian language certification? Want to learn the language properly and naturally? Are you planning a trip to Italy and want to prepare to enjoy it to the fullest? Thinking about relocating and working here, or perhaps you’d like to surprise your Italian partner with your language skills?
Whatever your dream may be… with me, it can become a reality. Together, we’ll create a personalized journey — full of enthusiasm, effectiveness, and yes, plenty of fun along the way!

I’ve been learning with Dea for some time now, and she has been an amazing teacher. She is incredibly patient and understanding, always taking the time to explain things clearly and making sure I fully grasp each topic before moving on. No matter how many questions I ask, she approaches them with encouragement and positivity, which makes me feel comfortable and confident during our lessons.
I truly look forward to every lesson with her. Since she became my teacher, I’ve seen a significant improvement in my understanding of the Italian language—especially when it comes to those tricky grammar rules. Her supportive teaching style has made learning both effective and enjoyable.

Dea always has a plan for the lesson and we speak of many things. She gently corrects my grammar and helps me with vocabulary. She is patient and has a great sense of humor. Great teacher!

Dea and I talked about a time when I arranged a surprise birthday party for my wife and gave her a new car as her bithday present.
