About Martina

Ciao! I am Martina, and I am an Italian teacher working mainly online. I am from Venice, but I grew up in the Alps. At the age of six, I found out that the world did not speak Italian, so I began wondering about what was on the other side of my mountains. This is how I found out German, then English, French, Spanish and Portuguese (so far!).

Reading about all of these languages, however, was not enough for my little brain… Therefore – ever since I was eligible for – I have been part of different summer camps abroad where I (finally) put into practice my French and English skills until I turned sixteen. This was a life-changing year for me as I decided to leave my safe Italian nest, pack my things, and pursue my language learning path in the United States (in Southern California, if you’re wondering. And no, no palms, ocean, and beaches).

After graduating from an American High School, I graduated from an Italian one as well. Seeking a more international environment than my tiny mountain village, I ended up in Rome for college, where I majored in Italian and minored in Journalism from one of the biggest and oldest universities in Italy.

Eventually, following my stubbornness (anyone? parents wanted me to be a lawyer) and choosing one of my biggest passions, I decided to get a Master's degree in Language Sciences and Linguistics at the university of Venice.

Currently, besides working on a ton of projects related to language learning and self-study, I am teaching Italian online where I have taught students from all around the world going from zero Italian to be able to speak comfortably with native speakers! I have been very greatfy that I get to meet amazing and inspiring people every day by teaching Italian and sharing what I have to offer with everyone of you.
