I grew up abroad, studied in English, and have always worked in English-speaking environments. Over the years, I've led teams, coached individuals, and offered private sessions on various topics — including conversational English.

In schools, there's often a strong focus on grammar, which is important, but not enough time is spent just talking. To really improve a language, you need space to speak, make mistakes, and have fun — and that's exactly what I offer.

I can teach in English or Italian, and the sessions are relaxed, empathetic, and fully tailored to you. We can chat about everyday life, hobbies, travel, work — anything you like — and do exercises, reading, listening, or vocabulary practice if you want.

One of my favorite moments was working with my 12- and 13-year-old niece and nephew in Italy. They started off a little shy, but over time their confidence and English improved so much that when we traveled to the US last year, we could all converse easily and have fun with it.

The sessions are fun, stress-free, and flexible — your pace, your topics, your learning. Let's practice together and enjoy the journey to more confident English (or Italian!) conversation.
Extra information
It's important that students have a basic level to provide a starting point for conversation. If the level is too low, meaningful conversation becomes more difficult. Please note, this course is not focused on grammar exercises — it is purely conversational, aimed at improving everyday speaking and listening skills.

About Me
I love teaching languages because I enjoy seeing people gain confidence and have fun while learning. I'm a relaxed and empathetic teacher, and I adapt each session to the student's needs, interests, and pace. I believe the best way to improve a language is through conversation and practice, not endless grammar exercises.

I enjoy working with students of all ages who are curious, motivated, and open to speaking — whether it's everyday conversation, travel situations, or specific topics they want to explore. Having grown up abroad, studied and worked in English, and learned other languages myself, I know how important it is to feel safe, comfortable, and supported while practicing.

In my lessons, we'll chat, laugh, and explore topics that interest you, with optional exercises for reading, listening, or vocabulary. My goal is simple: help you speak more confidently and enjoyably, at your own pace.
