“I am originally from Rome, Italy, where I spent most of my life…”

Ciao! My name is Giulia Picariello Signori. I graduated with a bachelor's degree at Loyola University with an Early Childhood Education teaching license and a Special Education endorsement. I am originally from Rome, Italy, where I spent most of my life, until I moved here to Chicago with my family when I was 15 years old.

I currently work at SIEF as a maestra in classe Montagna (K-1st grade).

I am delighted to be part of this community and to share my love for Italian, play based learning, and the Reggio Emilia approach.
