Educational Producer, Author, Consultant, Founder of CyberItalian Inc.

Maura Garau - following the Renaissance tradition of eclecticism and intellectual curiosity - is constantly expanding her knowledge through study and research ranging from language and communication, to art, oriental disciplines, zen meditation, history, philosophy, human development, music and much more. 

She founded CyberItalian.com not only for the teaching of the Italian language online but also to share and further humanistic values and culture throughout the world.

She is the author of the book Your Renaissance, a fascinating journey into the lives of Leonardo Da Vinci, Michelangelo, other great Renaissance artists, and into our own life.

Her Space of a Dream WellnessDayByDay project is based on a core belief that to improve the world we must begin with ourselves.

The @maura_imagesandwords profile on Instagram encourages the free circulation of public domain images of artworks, and aims to increase sensitivity and awareness on the influence that images have on our life.

Maura holds a diploma in Visual Design, a diploma in Art Direction, a diploma in Shiatsu and a University Degree (Laurea) in Foreign Languages and Literature with specialization in the teaching of the Italian language.

She defines herself as an Educational Producer because through her projects, studies and researches, she wants to give a true meaning to the word "educare" (to educate, from the Latin "ex-ducere", to bring out).

The best educational project is the one that allows each person to express (bring out) the best of him/herself.

When you finish reading and you stop. A state of the soul.
