About Me

I am a professional actor, facilitator, and producer, as well as the Co-Artistic Director of CultureClash Theatre. My journey into the world of acting was anything but conventional!

I first pursued a career in law, earning my degree from Glasgow University School of Law and working as an immigration and human rights lawyer. However, my passion for storytelling and performance led me to take a leap of faith, training at Guildford School of Acting, where I completed my MA in Acting in 2015.

Since then, I have built a career that spans theatre, film, and television, performing across the UK and Sweden. My theatre credits include: Kayla in Home In Time For Christmas (Oxford Playhouse), Pinocchio & Sylvia Green in Greenwich Theatre’s Summer Repertory Season, Sharon Slaughter in Hell, Yes I’m Tough Enough (Park Theatre), and Modern Moll Frith in Moll & The Future Kings (Sam Wanamaker Playhouse). I’ve also performed in Southwark Playhouse, Arcola Theatre, New Diorama Theatre, and at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival.

In film and television, I have portrayed Ngozi in Call The Midwife, Victoria in Steal Suffering, Eliza in Darren Has A Breakdown, and featured in E4’s Spa Brand Spot.

At the heart of my work is a commitment to bold storytelling. Whether through performance or my work with CultureClash Theatre, I am passionate about creating work that challenges perspectives and resonates deeply with audiences.

I love working with people who are eager to explore the power of theatre—whether you're stepping onto the stage for the first time or already have extensive experience. For me, great acting isn’t about perfection; it’s about curiosity, courage, and a willingness to play. I’m looking for students who are open to stepping into someone else’s shoes, discovering new ways to express themselves, and embracing the thrill of storytelling.

My approach is supportive yet challenging, pushing you to unlock your full potential while ensuring you feel safe, encouraged, and creatively inspired. If you’re ready to take risks, trust the process, and dive deep into the craft, I can’t wait to work with you!

University English Instructor| Started teaching English 9 years ago| Specializing in Conversational English.

My teaching approach is designed to develop communication skills above all. We watch or read materials, such as videos, articles, stories, poems, caricatures, then discuss them; we act out situations from everyday life; we take positions and practice debates. However, this doesn’t mean that we just practice speaking. I also make sure the learner is not running in circles. I’m here to ensure that they do not keep repeating the same mistakes or keep using the same expressions over and over in conversation.
In order to keep making progress, I take my student on a journey that involves:
• Improving their grammar.
• Fixing their pronunciation.
• Enriching their vocabulary by learning to use new words and common idioms.
By the end of this course, you should be able to speak English fluently and confidently.

PS: Because of my academic specialty, I also help with academic writing and creative writing.

Hello everyone!
I'm Giorgia and I come from Torino, Italy.
I offer my native knowledge of Italian to any of you, who wants to discover this beautiful language.

I teach for all levels, from very beginners to advanced speakers, passing through amateurs or simply curious of any age. I can also help with university exams and school works/assignments.
Being a pianist and a piano teacher, I already have lots of experience with teaching and pedagogical approach with the whole range of ages.

The lesson is intended to meet the student needs: the focus can be on the grammar, conversation or literature. In case of a middle-level speaker, the lesson will cover all four language's abilities: listening, speaking, writing and reading. My suggestion of a well planned lesson is, for any level, to divide it into two parts: grammar first and then conversation (covering all the abilities mentioned above).

Thank you for your attention and looking forward to meeting you !!
