Trained actor and experienced media trainer - background in political speech writing

From 89 C$ /h

I am a trained actor from one of the UK's best drama schools and I have a background in publicity and politics: I worked as a publicist and media trainer for politicians for 7 years (my previous employers include Martin Schulz, president of the European Parliament, the Austrian Liberal Party NEOS and Sadiq Khan, mayor of London), accompanying them to their TV and media appearances and preparing them for interviews and TV debates.

As an actor, my credits include several feature films and a number of theatre plays, including "Richard II", "A Winter's Tale" and "Waiting for Godot". I am bilingual in English and German and am happy to work in both languages.

Whether you are preparing for a presentation, a media appearance, interview or you just want to improve your confidence in speaking in front of a group, I will make sure to tailor our sessions to your individual goals and needs.

Public speaking means sharing our ideas with others, which is an incredibly personal and vulnerable place to be in and I can offer you techniques to combat stage fright and enable you to be your best, authentic and confident self.

Communication is the most versatile and sought-after skill today. Whether it's to succeed in an oral exam, convince during a job interview, lead a professional meeting, or simply overcome shyness and express oneself clearly, speaking is something that can be learned and practiced.

I offer you tailored support to unlock your potential, structure your thinking and give impact to your interventions, both oral and written (in person or online).
The strategic focus of our work:
Ease and Oral Eloquence: In-depth work on non-verbal communication (posture, gaze, gestures) and paraverbal communication (voice management, intonation, rhythm, silences).

Managing stage fright and stress: Breathing and grounding techniques to overcome the fear of public speaking and transform stress into positive energy.

Structuring techniques: Learning impactful argumentative structures. How to capture attention from the first few seconds, maintain audience interest, and conclude with a powerful message.

Learning to speak English fluently is about more than memorizing grammar rules—it's about feeling at ease when you need to use it: in conversations at work, in school, while traveling, or in everyday situations that call for quick, natural responses.

With experience teaching adult professionals on language and travel communication, I focus on building both your language skills and your confidence. My feedback approach draws on mindfulness principles, helping you notice and release the self-judgment or anxiety that often gets in the way of speaking freely, as non-native speakers often feel. Rather than fixating on every mistake, we work on staying present and communicating clearly. I will help you improve your English skills through consistent fluency practice, paired with mindful, constructive correction—so growth feels natural, not stressful.

This class covers practical, real-world English — conversations at work and in school, travel scenarios, and everyday interactions — while also expanding your vocabulary naturally through real conversation, so you leave each session more capable and more at ease using the language.

Do you understand Italian but struggle to speak with confidence? Or are you planning a trip to Italy and want to feel more comfortable communicating with locals?

I'm Roberta, a native Italian tutor with an international background and training in theatre and acting.

My lessons help you move beyond textbook Italian and start using the language naturally. Through real-life conversation, role-play, music, films and culture, we'll work on fluency, pronunciation and finding your own voice in Italian.

Having learned several languages myself, I understand what it feels like to search for words or fear making mistakes. My approach is personal, creative and practical: less fear of getting it wrong, more confidence to express yourself.
