Our Director: Cristina Bertamini

Cristina Bertamini, linguistic specialist, is the driving force behind The Bertamini Language School’s evolution, hailing from a multicultural academic family environment. From a young age, the use of English, Spanish, Italian, and Greek have been part of her daily life, cultivating an innate aptitude for multilingualism and intercultural communication.

With the knowledge gained from her experienced father, a language school owner, and her studies at the University for Foreigners of Lecce in Italy, she formed a solid linguistic foundation. There, she earned three university degrees (Spanish, Italian, and English Language and Literature) with a score of 109/110, Summa Cum Laude. Her deep knowledge of Ancient Greek and Latin languages made her stand out, while her time at the University of Granada in Spain broadened her expertise in Latin American History and Literature, as well as in Translation and Interpreting. Simultaneously, she developed a particular interest in Arabic, Russian, and Chinese languages.

As a philologist with multilingual training and specialisation in applied linguistics of Indo-European and non-Indo-European languages, Cristina Bertamini laid the foundations for The Bertamini Language School’s expansion, reaching new linguistic horizons.

From her: “At our School, success is a natural consequence of proper preparation, hard work, and dedication to the goal, within a productive learning environment. As director, I always lead by example by providing educational support, encouraging innovation, respect, and the development of the potential of both instructors and students.”
