Giulia Bulfoni
GGDA Head Teacher
Hello everyone. My name is Giulia, I’m from Venice, and I love Japan. I enjoy cooking, painting, and dancing traditional Japanese dances while wearing a yukata.
I started teaching Italian in Tokyo and discovered that I really enjoy it because Japanese students, both young and old, are inquisitive, fun, and excellent listeners.
