About me

Even though I trained as a nurse to meet my parents’ expectations, I eventually followed my heart — and turned teaching into my career.

I'm Kati, and I live in Perugia, a beautiful city in central Italy.


I’ve made Italy my home for over 20 years and speak Italian fluently, with a clear accent.

I’m fluent in Italian and English, and currently learning French and German.

For the past seven years, I’ve been teaching Italian and English online, focusing on conversation and speaking confidence.

I hold a CELTA certification and specialize in helping beginners learn with simple, step-by-step lessons.

My Mission: 
Helping you grow

I’m here to help you learn Italian in a simple, effective, and enjoyable way. I know exactly what it’s like to start from zero — when I moved to Italy, I only knew the word ciao. I didn’t attend any formal courses. I taught myself Italian, step by step, through everyday practice, curiosity, and dedication.

Because I’ve gone through the same process, I know how to guide you. I’ve created clear, practical lessons based on what really works — especially for beginners.

Whether you want to speak confidently, understand grammar, or expand your vocabulary, I’ll teach you how to do it with patience, structure, and encouragement.

My goal is to help you grow and reach your personal goals — just like I did.
