Ciao!!
My name is Martina!
I'm a native Italian speaker.
I'm from Asti, a city in the north of Italy close to Torino.
I'm living in Japan since June 2019 and I really love Japan.
EXPERIENCES:
First time I came to Japan I was 22 years old and since that time I never stopped studying Japanese language and culture.
Two years ago I came to Japan in Nagano Prefecture working in a Ryokan to improving my Japanese language skills, and it was incredible experience in the japanese countryside. After one year in Nagano I moved to Ishikawa prefecture.
LANGUAGES SKILLS and TEACHING EXPERIENCES:
I have a solid background in linguistic field since I went to Linguistic High School.
I have Bachelor's Degree in Foreign Languages and I deepened my studies with Master’s Degree in Translation.
I have strong written and spoken English, French and Japanese language skills gained through University study as well as mother-tongue competency in Italian.
I taught Italian for over 3 years to different kind of students here in Japan.
I’ve also a brief job experience as English teacher in Shanghai, China.
I learned different methods to teach and how to plan lessons and deal with different kind of students.
I discovered my natural inclination to stay with people and helping them and my attitude to be always proactive and positive. I love teaching my language and my culture, it's really satisfying helping people with their goals!
MY HOBBIES:
I love traveling all around the world, especially in Asia. Last year I went to Thailand and it was beautiful.
I really like languages, multiculturalism, photography and antropology.
In my free time I love taking pictures and traveling around the world discovering new cultures and people.
The chance to live in Japan gave me the possibility to grow my knowledge for japanese culture.
In Matsumoto, Nagano Prefecture:
