About Me
I am a multilingual language professional with two individual MA degrees in English and Italian language and literature. I also have a post-graduate diploma in Teaching English as a Second Language (CELTA) and a BA degree in French and Spanish.

I hold a teacher's degree and from 2007 till 2019, I worked with children from 8 to 16 years of age as a teacher of English and foreign languages in mainstream community schools in England.

I also taught English and Academic Skills at the University of East Anglia and foreign languages at a number of adult education centres.

I like to involve children in drama activities, games, singing, and performances in the foreign language. I also like using interactive teaching materials and online resources to vary the teaching activities and thus inspire children to use the target language. I like to organize my private lessons to match the needs and interests of my students: I like to see them taking an active role in their learning, asking questions, choosing topics and material and guide the learning process.
