Ciao!!
Eager to speak Italian fluently? You’re in the right place. Benvenuto! (welcome)
Are you just starting to learn Italian? Are you looking to improve your existing skills? I’m here to help and would love to welcome you in my student community!
My name is Federica. I was born in Rome and grew up in Marche, a region in central Italy, near the Adriatic sea. At the age of 18, I decided to leave Italy to move to the UK.
Since then, I did a Bachelor’s degree, a Master’s degree and a PhD, and I have worked in Education for a few years now.
Teaching is my passion, and I created ContentoItaliano as a place where you can learn about all aspects of the Italian language and culture.
Interested in reading around the Italian language and culture?
