I introduce myself: My name is Costanza and I was born in Piombino (Italy) in 1968. After high school in Humanities (maturità classica), I enrolled at the University of Pisa, where I completed a degree in Philosophy in 1994 and in History in 2005 (both laurea magistrale). In 1996 I got the Großes Deutsches Sprachdiplom (C2 level) issued by the Goethe Institute. I have spent many years in Germany. 1995-1997 I worked as a lector for Italian language at the University of Bielefeld and over the years I have worked at various language schools in Tuscany, Mannheim and Berlin. From 2009 to 2013 I taught Italian at a Volskhochschule in Brandenburg. Since 2002 I have been managing Puntolingua, which has been based in Berlin since 2012. Further qualifications: DITALS II and recognized CELI examiner.
