The face behind LiLe
For the past ten years I’ve dedicated myself to teaching and sharing the German language.
In 2023 I founded LiLe, a German learning platform made specifically for the hospitality industry and for companies. Language is both my passion and my profession, because learning German is about much more than grammar. It opens doors, broadens perspectives and brings people together.

Feedback from Lena’s students, translated from Italian. The originals are underneath.
“I think you’re really good at teaching a language. Your method is different from school teachers. You find fun and interesting ways to do it.”
Secondo me sei molto brava nell’insegnare una lingua. Hai un metodo diverso rispetto agli insegnanti scolastici. Trovi modi divertenti e interessanti per farlo. Complimenti.
Manuela G. “I always felt at ease, and for me that’s the most important thing for taking on any challenge, from the smallest to the biggest.”
Mi sono sempre sentito a mio agio e secondo me questa è la cosa più importante per poter affrontare al meglio qualsiasi sfida, dalla più piccola alla più grande!
Stefano Z. “You put me at ease, and it felt easy to just go for it and try speaking German.”
Mi hai messo a mio agio ed è stato semplice buttarsi nel provare ad esprimersi in tedesco.
