Mr. Marc Mariani

Marc Mariani was born in California, raised in Oregon, and attended college at the University of Washington in Seattle. His first master’s degree (classics) he completed in 1988, his second (Italian studies) in 1995, spending the better part of four years in Rome in between. In Seattle, Marc taught for 15 years at a private language academy and later at Cornish College of the Arts. He is delighted to have settled in New Jersey and considers himself blessed to have landed at Oratory Prep, where, now in his third year, he moderates the Italian Club, organizes international travel, and teaches Latin and Italian. In his spare time, Marc enjoys traveling, spending time with family and friends, playing basketball and tennis, reading, and plugging away at the final chapters of a comparative grammar of Italian.
