About me
I've been in the language field for over 20 years now, mainly as a teacher but also as a translator and an interpreter.

My native language is Italian and I am fluent in English as I lived and studied in the US for a year where I also graduated from American high school. To certify my knowledge of English, I also have a Cambridge Proficiency Certificate (Grade A).

I have an MA degree in translating and interpreting (English and French).

I also took a university course in Preservation of Cultural Heritage and passed all the required examinations with a high grade point average.

My main fields of expertise include:

Law
Tourism
Gastronomy
Nutrition
Literature
Art
Music
Dance
History
Astrology
Tennis

En ce qui concerne la langue française, j'ai un diplôme universitaire en interprétariat et traduction. Je parle le français tous les jours puisque je donne des cours d'anglais par téléphone à des étudiants français au nom d'une société française de cours de langues.
