As an audiovisual translator I subtitle Art and Tourism documentaries for TV and museums. Specialized in: Website localization, Tourism & Travel, History of Art, Marketing, Fashion, Media, Culinary, Audiovisual Translation.

For what concerns my teaching activity, since 2006 I have been working as a Spanish teacher in the Secondary School and at University, where I also teach Literary, Technical and Audiovisual Translation. I teach Spanish, Portuguese (European) and Italian as foreign languages and I specialize in Media Education, Web 2.0 Education and Social Media Language Learning.
