About Rahel
I was born in Asmara, Eritrea. Eritrea was the product of Italian colonization in 1890. In 1975 there was a civil war and most Italians returned to Italy. My mother got a job in Italy and I moved there when I was 6 years old.
I was raised and educated in Genoa, Italy and lived there until I was 27. I spent 2 years in Washington DC, America as a teenager in High School.
I speak Italian, English, French, Spanish and Tigrinya

I have experience with a variety of different teaching methods. I have taught in the classroom for seven years, I find that my language teaching is most effective when I am allowed to work with individuals and smaller groups of people. As a dynamic person that travels, learning foreign languages from the very beginning, I understand the impediments that many beginner students face.
