I offer lessons that cover everything from the basics to advanced Japanese for beginners and intermediate learners. We can conduct the lessons in Italian if you'd like. I can also speak a little English, so I’m here to help whenever you need it.

Since I’m currently learning Italian and English myself, I totally understand the struggles of hitting language barriers or having a hard time remembering things.
