HI everyone, my name is Valentina, I am Italian and I live in a small village in Piemonte, close to Turin. What I enjoy doing in my freetime is cooking, hiking and reading. As a language learner myself I can really relate to the challenges students face when learning a new language and I really do my job with patience and passion.

I speak to Valentina once a week. She is always punctual, friendly and makes sure she talks at my level, both with speed and content. Unknown words are typed quickly so I can go back and review the lesson. The content is interesting and she is also interested in South Africa.

Con valentina, la conversazione non finisce. Parliamo di teatro, musica, ballo, feste tradizionale, turismo. Infatti, ogni lezione è un viaggio curioso attraverso la cultura italiana oggi e ieri. Grazie mille!
