Come and Live in Italy with a Native Italian Teacher and Immerse yourself in the Italian Lifestyle and
Dolce Vita.

Experience Italian with me, on the Cilento Coast

Come learn Italian right here in Laureana Cilento, a charming village near Paestum in the heart of Southern Italy.

As your teacher and host, I’ll welcome you into my home and community, where language learning blends naturally with daily life.

At my school, Italian isn't just studied—it’s lived.
You’ll enjoy one-on-one lessons to your pace and interests,
then take your skills into the world:
reading a book over coffee at a local bar,
chatting with vendors at the market,
or exploring hidden corners of the Cilento Coast and its picturesque villages.

In the evenings, you'll join me and my friends for Aperitivi
and relaxed dinners, where Italian flows freely and learning feels effortless. It’s more than a course—
it’s an authentic, immersive experience in a welcoming environment.

Let’s speak Italian together—naturally, joyfully, and surrounded by beauty.
