Do you love Italian people, history, and food and you would like to speak the language?
I am a CEDILS-certified Italian teacher born and raised in Florence, and I've also been a language student myself for a long time! If you want to be able to interact with Italians quickly, I can give you some tips about correct pronunciation, fundamental grammar, and vocabulary, but also Italian art and popular culture, which I think is fundamental to understanding the mentality and the country that you are going to interact with.
Lessons will be tailored according to the student's needs, level, and mother language and focused on the conversation.

I am also available to proofread your writings.

History is the vector that allows us to better understand our society, the world in which we live. It is essential for general culture. The level of the course will adapt to the level of the student, from primary to university. It is also possible to adapt it in relation to an exam or competition to be taken, or to a person wishing to complete their general knowledge on a particular subject.

I can offer regular feedback on the development of your artistic practice. I can also provide technical training, my specialty being painting. I will help you find your personal style, giving you the necessary space to achieve it, as it's important that it comes from you.

I will share with you all my knowledge on contemporary art and its norms, whether you wish to work with institutions, sell paintings, or collaborate with other artists.

I am a practicing artist who regularly exhibits around the world. Passionate about teaching, I have been a Fine Arts tutor for over three years at several major London universities (Goldsmiths, Camberwell and Turps).

I also have two years experience teaching arts with teenagers with autism.

Hi! I'm someone who loves learning and talking about culture, and I offer casual tutoring sessions for anyone who wants to explore the world of film, art, music, and history in an enjoyable and relaxed way.

If you're curious about cinema beyond the latest blockbusters, we can dive into art house films and discover directors like Ingmar Bergman, Kurosawa, Haneke, Andrei Tarkovsky, Kubrick, Agnès Varda, Jean-Luc Godard, David Lynch, or Wong Kar-wai. Whether you're just getting started or already a film lover, we can discuss storytelling, symbolism, cinematography, and the ideas behind great movies.

Art is another passion of mine. We can explore the works of Leonardo da Vinci, Michelangelo, Caravaggio, Rembrandt, Francisco Goya, Claude Monet, Vincent van Gogh, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dalí, Frida Kahlo, Edward Hopper, and many others. Together, we'll look at different artistic movements, from the Renaissance to Impressionism, Cubism, Surrealism, and contemporary art.

. If classical music interests you, we can explore the masterpieces of Bach, Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Tchaikovsky, Debussy, and Stravinsky, learning how their music shaped history and still influences artists today.

History connects everything. From Ancient Greece and Rome to the Middle Ages, the Renaissance, the French Revolution, World War I and II, the Cold War, and modern global events, we can explore the people, ideas, and moments that changed the world.

My tutoring style is friendly, interactive, and based on conversation rather than memorization. I believe learning should be enjoyable, inspiring, and adapted to your interests. Whether you're preparing for school, improving your English through cultural topics, or simply expanding your knowledge for fun, I'm happy to help.

No pressure, no boring lectures, just interesting conversations, great recommendations, and the chance to discover some of the most fascinating works of human creativity together.

Are you developing an art portfolio, preparing an application, or trying to understand where to take your artistic practice next?

I am a professional visual artist with more than 30 years of international experience in exhibitions, residencies, research and teaching. I offer individual mentoring for students, emerging artists and established practitioners who want to develop a stronger, more coherent and personal body of work.

Sessions can focus on portfolio development, selecting and editing work, developing concepts, identifying recurring interests, strengthening your artistic voice, researching references, writing about your work and preparing applications for art schools, BA/BFA and MFA programmes, residencies, grants, exhibitions and other professional opportunities.

We can also work together if you feel stuck, disconnected from your practice or unsure how to move from isolated works or ideas toward a meaningful body of work.

My approach combines close discussion of your work with contemporary art, art history, critical references and practical strategies. I do not impose a particular style or aesthetic. The aim is to help you understand what is already distinctive in your work and develop it with greater clarity, depth and confidence.

Mentoring is available in English or Portuguese and is adapted to your individual goals and stage of development.

My goal is to make History feel less like an endless list of dates and names, and help you understand what happened, why it happened, and how different events are connected.

We’ll work with clear explanations, diagrams, examples, and practical techniques to prepare for exams and structure your answers effectively. I adapt each lesson to the pace and needs of every student.

The idea is that you feel comfortable asking as many questions as you need and finish each lesson genuinely understanding the subject.

And on top of that, I have a C1 level in English!

Teaching through lectures and discussions accompanied by representative images from different periods of art history. We will discuss the composition of images, the main characteristics of different movements and styles, the meaning behind their iconography, and the historical context in which they emerged. We will discuss the history of Western art from antiquity to the present day. We won't limit ourselves to Europe! We will also discuss pre-Columbian and American art. My class is aimed at anyone interested in learning about art history, whether for personal enrichment or as a supplement to a school course.
