Hello,
a bit about me:
I was born in noisy Athens, in beautiful Greece. I have studied Filology, History and Archaeology & History of Art in the Aristotle University of Thessaloniki.
I did my first professional steps preparing students for their introductive examinations in Greek Universities and tutoring children of immigrants who needed to follow Greek school. That was love on first sight: to discover your language further than the limits you imagined that exist, to transfer your language and your culture to other people and to accept their language and their culture as a life' s lesson.
All these years I have worked in big institutes and cultural centres, doing always the same thing with the same passion. My students were expats, executives or diplomats. They learned from me Greek and I learned from them to love multiculturality.
Since 2013 I live in Amsterdam, in the green Netherlands. Here you experience multiculturality every day and Dutch people love my country and admire her civilization. I feel lucky to be able to continue making my hobby my career.
