Maria Elisa Midulla

Italian teacher, cultural mediator, graduate of the University of Padua.

Born from a passion for languages and for meetings between cultures, italiAMO is the project through which Maria Elisa teaches her mother tongue to those who dream of Italy.

01

Education

Maria Elisa graduated in Languages and Cultural Mediation (L-12) at the University of Padua, one of the oldest and most prestigious universities in Italy, founded in 1222. A programme that combines the in-depth study of foreign languages with the understanding of cultures, societies, and the dynamics of international communication.

She is now pursuing her Master's degree at the University of Palermo, still in the field of languages and mediation, exploring topics ranging from translation and interpreting to mediation in complex social contexts.

02

A path across cultures

From the Venetian lagoon to the Sicilian Mediterranean, from northern precision to southern hospitality: Maria Elisa has crossed Italy during her studies and learned that the Italian language is never just one thing. It is made of nuances, silences, gestures. It is made of people.

That is why she teaches differently: not only grammar and vocabulary, but the way Italians live, think, and feel. Because a language without culture is like a violin without strings.

Her philosophy

I love being close to people, and I believe that through communication we can grow richer and become better.
Maria Elisa Midulla

This is the sentence that captures how Maria Elisa lives teaching. Not a one-way transmission of rules, but an encounter. Each student brings a story, a mother tongue, a way of thinking — and the class grows richer with every single one.

That is why the classes are small: so every student is truly known, guided, listened to.
