This has been a great experience for me and I look forward to the next class. I'm a big fan of your teaching style. It definitely works for me!
I loved that the classes were customized to our interests. It was especially useful to have exercises related to the living language and the actual current issues in Italy. Thank you, Andrea!
I very much enjoyed the classes online when I took them with Andrea. I made some good friends and was able to practice for my trips to Italy...
… We really liked the class and thought the instructor was excellent!
Andrea is the best. I am amazed by her mastery of Italian. I think I have been in class for more than two years continuously. I wouldn't be so committed to keep taking them if it wasn't for Andrea…
…I can only say that they were excellent and fun, and we look forward to taking more lessons in the near future.
Born in New Orleans, Louisiana, Andrea earned her Bachelor’s degree in Foreign Languages (French, German and Italian) from Louisiana State University in Baton Rouge, before moving to Rome, Italy to attend interpreting school at La Scuola Superiore per Interpreti e Traduttori; there, she studied translation theory and simultaneous and consecutive interpreting from Italian <> English, French and German.
Since 1994, she has been working as a professional interpreter, translator, and instructor, and is an official Italian government interpreter and translator for the Italian Court and Judicial System. From 2005-June of 2019, she worked as a full-time interpreter and translator at the Centro di Permanenza per I Rimpatri government facility in Rome Italy, where she worked on the front lines of immigration, for the Italian Red Cross, among other managing entities, and for Rome Police Headquarter officials. Over the years, she has also taught bilingual Italian- English literacy courses and Italian classes to refugees, ESL classes at an Italian public high school, and English classes to Italian police officials.
Andrea is also proficient in Russian, has studied ancient Hebrew in the Italian university system and is a certified intercultural linguistic mediator for the Region of Latium. She is eager to share her great love for the Italian language and culture, cultivated not only through her 26 years in Italy, but also from her own Italian- American heritage.
