About Me

I gathered experience in tutoring whilst completing my Bachelor's degree in Edinburgh and during my Masters degree here in London. My students ranged from beginners looking to learn the basics in order to continue studying Italian in university; intermediate professionals looking to become proficient in business Italian, to advanced people wanting to improve their pronunciation prior to go on holiday to Italy.

I worked in equity sales for a few years following the completion of my Master's degree and I am currently taking a career break.

My three main areas of expertise (not necessarily in this order):

- Chess: I teach chess to beginners and intermediate players up to ELO 1800 or ECF 1700, working on the tactical and strategic aspects of openings, middle games and endgames.. "chess is life in miniature"!

- Fitness / Running / Triathlon: I coach people who want to get fitter and generally incorporate any endurance activity into a health(ier) lifestyle. I am a dedicated coach who has competed in several marathons and Ironman races (also qualified for the Ironman World Championship). I focus on nutrition, stress and sleep as well for a holistic approach.

- Languages: I specialize in tutoring Italian and Spanish; my style is to keep students challenged and motivated through simple classes and practical exercises (pronunciation, grammar, vocabulary).. I'm a demanding teacher but will guide you in a fun and interactive way.

Please contact me if you have any interest in spending more time and energy in any of these 3 areas, and don't forget that "Mens Sana in Corpore Sano" is a good approach to look after yourself :)

I am a tutor of Italian and English as a foreign/second language. I had the opportunity to teach in different contexts with multicultural groups of students from many countries and backgrounds. I am currently teaching Italian to individual students and corporate clients with different language requirements and purposes. I have also conducted a preparation course for Italian GCSE and A level exams in London.

I teach to all levels and ages using a communicative and student-centred approach. My lessons are very interactive and focused on real life and cultural situations.
I care about my students’ learning progress and achievements and I am keen to guide them in a friendly, dedicated and respectful manner. Moreover, one of my main goals as a teacher is to enable my students to enjoy the experience of communicating, thinking and reacting in a foreign language.

Are you studying Italian but want to expand your vocabulary and conversation skills? Talking to a native Italian speaker is the best way to improve your language skills! I'm 24 and was born in Italy (Siena, Tuscany, to be more specific) and move to London three years ago. I'm a performer and dance teacher, but over the years I have also worked as a teaching assistant in primary schools, so I have experience working with children as well as adults.
I graduated high school in Italy with the highest marks 100/100, specialising in classical studies especially Italian language and literature.
I'm willing to help students or Italian learners of every level to improve their skills and level of confidence and even help in preparation for tests or examinations.

Spanish is the second most widely spoken language in the world, with over 460 million native speakers. Learning Spanish enables you to communicate with a significant portion of the global population and opens up opportunities for travel, cultural exchanges, and friendships.

Learning a new language fosters personal growth and self-improvement as it challenges you to step out of your comfort zone, boosts confidence, and enhances cross-cultural understanding, encouraging empathy, open-mindedness, and a broader perspective of the world.

Whether you're a complete beginner or looking to improve your existing skills, this class is designed to cater to learners of all levels.

Flexible Schedule: Classes are conducted online and in person, allowing you to choose a schedule that fits your availability.

Structured Curriculum: The curriculum is carefully designed to ensure a progressive learning experience. We'll start with basic greetings and introductions, gradually building your knowledge and proficiency in the language.

Personalized Approach: Individualized attention and support, addressing your specific strengths and areas for improvement.

Cultural Insights: Learning a language is not just about vocabulary and grammar; it's also about understanding the culture behind it. We'll explore various aspects of Spanish-speaking cultures, including traditions, customs, and celebrations, to provide a well-rounded learning experience.

By the end of this online Spanish class, you can expect to have a solid grasp of the language and the ability to communicate effectively in everyday situations. Whether your goal is to travel, connect with Spanish-speaking communities, enhance your career prospects, or simply embrace a new culture, I will equip you with the skills you need to succeed.

I will instruct non-native speakers in English, focusing on language acquisition and communication skills. I aim to improve grammar, and monitor grammatical errors. I will also inform why these errors are commonly made.
Assisting with the formation of sentences and improving overall writing ability, will also be a focus.

Setswana is a rich, rhythmic language spoken in Botswana, South Africa, Zimbabwe and Namibia. Belonging to the Bantu family, it closely resembles other languages in the region.
I have found learning Setswana through several terrific teachers, thorough textbooks and daily life enriching.

Growing up in Botswana, speaking this beautiful and intricate language, or at least making an effort to do so, can transform the way you live in Botswana.
I have taught semester-long regular beginners Setswana lessons to children aged 7-12 and adults, with strong emphasis on understanding grammar by breaking it down into “formulas” for how to form tenses and sentences. I teach these and vocabulary through a mix of traditional explanatory lectures, practice exercises and creative games, accompanied by study techniques I have found very useful for learning foreign languages. I have also worked as a trained English tutor, and study linguistics at university, both of which have shaped me to better understand and teach language.

Each class will consist of grammar formulas (eg: basic conjugation in the present tense: linking pronoun [for the human noun class group, for example: ke=I, o=you, o=him/her, re=we, le=you plural, ba=they] + “tla” [as in “will”] + verb), some vocabulary words, spoken or written exercises or games to go through together and longer practice exercises to build independent confidence.

My teaching materials I use I developed whilst living in Botswana, and have already been used with my aforementioned classes. I hope they can help you too !
