During my internship with Donatella Tellini—Biblioteca delle Donne, I learned about Italian women’s history and had access to many informative books about women in society, crimes/violence against women, children’s books that instill confidence in young women, and overall education. I believe that my Italian improved immensely as well my confidence with speaking the language. I loved learning from all of the amazing women that I had the opportunity to interact with. I would love to participate in this internship again, and I also truly encourage others to work there as well!
