"Giulia is calm, warm, organised and enthusiastic.
She listens carefully and provides just the right amount of support with vocabulary and correction, enabling you to express yourself as fluently as possible.
She's really authentic and so you feel you can be yourself in her company.
I'd 100 per cent recommend an Italian Retreat with Giulia!
Your language will improve without it feeling like work.”
I'm Giulia Borelli, an Italian teacher and a globetrotter passionate about history, geopolitics, and cultures.
I bring Italy to you through cultural events which will make you fall in love with the Italian language even more and help you learn it by doing.
