Andrew Serio

Connecting Italian Art, History & Culture Italy
Hometown: Buffalo, NY

Ciao a tutti! My name is Andrew Serio and I'm very happy to be leading the Language and Culture program in Ferrara, Italy this year. I am an instructor of Italian in Buffalo, NY and I also work as a translator and interpreter. I hold a Bachelor's degree from the University at Buffalo in Italian Studies and a Master's degree from Università Ca'Foscari in Venice, Italy. I have also lived in Italy's Lombardia region where I taught English in a high school. My biggest passion is Italian language and culture, and I absolutely love sharing that passion with youngsters. While I thoroughly enjoy teaching Italian in the USA, where better to actually live the language and culture than in Italy? Che questa avventura abbia inizio!
