By taking the plunge into my English language class it's like stepping into a vibrant, language-filled carnival where learning becomes a thrilling rollercoaster ride! In my classes, I don't just teach English; but I create a fun and interactive environment that turns learning into a fun experience.

Picture yourself engaging in lively conversations, playing language games, and immersing yourself in cultural activities that transport you to English-speaking destinations around the world. My imagination brings a dash of humor and creativity into every lesson, ensuring that learning English is never dull.

The class isn't just about textbooks and rules; it's about building a community of language enthusiasts who share in your excitement for mastering English. From tongue-twisters to hilarious role-play scenarios, we make language learning as entertaining as it is educational.

So, whether you dream of exploring new horizons, expanding your career opportunities, or simply want to impress your friends with your English fluency, our class is the ultimate language party where fun and fluency go hand in hand. Join us for a language journey you'll genuinely enjoy!

A step-by-step tuition program that:
Builds self-esteem
Increases resilience
Improves wellbeing
Improves communication
Improves study skills

Resources provided include:
-Mentoring
-3D animation videos to explain concepts
-Worksheets
-Other supplementary materials

Who i've worked with;
-students at prestigious schools across the world (e.g. Eton College, St. Paul's)
-students at the top universities (e.g. Oxford University, Yale University)
-student athletes (e.g. Harvard/Stanford and Team GBR Olympics teams)
-recent graduates at the world's top firms (e.g. Goldman Sachs, Slaughter & May)

This programme has been turned into a workshop and will be delivered at both Oxford and Cambridge universities for first year students.

Every student needs assistance to rebound after the pandemic and lockdowns. I have the expertise to get students back on track.

I have tutored students from the most prestigious schools in the country as well as students internationally.

I have delivered talks at schools on student success and have authored four books on topics such as productivity, time-management, self-discipline & confidence.

I founded the first online personal development academy for teenagers based around a holistic approach to learning. I also create wellbeing & mental health resources for young people at schools and universities.

My role is not only in preparing students for the future but it is giving them the confidence to shape it. My objective is to inspire, motivate and cultivate ambitious young students who have the ability to identify and fulfil their aspirations.

I combine five interlinked components that, if worked on in tandem, can drastically change a students life for the better and aid them in becoming the pioneers of the future.

These 5 strands are:
1) Mindset
2) Wellbeing Management
3) Study Skills
4) Life Skills
5) Leadership Development

I place a special emphasis on personal development and this is what makes me different. I believe it is possible to equip students with the mindset and skillset to radically alter their lives for the better.

My instruction goes beyond this by including study skills such as note-taking, memory improvement techniques, speed-reading, and effective revision into its program. These skills will stay with pupils and enlighten their entire academic tenure.

Finally, my role is also about offering guidance to students in terms of their current issues, academic future and potential career paths. My educational system is a result of years of lessons I myself learned progressing through the academic arena all the way to university level. In addition, it encompasses all the research I have conducted in self-improvement, effective study skills and successful leadership. These methods have been tested and proven successful. I hope to impart this knowledge to the next generation and watch them do great things with it.

Yours sincerely,
Ash

Who am I?

I am a highly qualified teacher with several years of experience in teaching Italian to foreign students.

I organize courses for children, courses for individuals over 60, and preparation courses for Italian language exams.

I also offer seminars, webinars, and fun activities such as role-playing games and escape rooms to learn Italian while having fun.

**My education and studies**

I hold two degrees and a master’s degree.

My first degree is in Italian Studies, focusing on Theory, Criticism, and Methodology, with a specific path for teaching Italian to foreigners. My second degree is in Modern Philology. I also completed a Master’s in Contemporary Art and Curatorial Practices at the Luiss Business School in Rome.

**What did I do before teaching?**

Before dedicating myself to teaching, which I consider the best job in the world, I worked in the fields of fashion and contemporary art. After obtaining my master's degree, I worked as a curator of contemporary art and fashion exhibitions in important museums in Rome. I also collaborated with film festivals, particularly promoting Italian cinema abroad.

**My teaching philosophy**

I aim to provide my students with all my multidisciplinary knowledge and creativity to offer Italian lessons that include careful grammatical analysis. Beware of those who claim that Italian can be learned without studying grammar: grammar is essential for fully understanding the language system and enables students to become independent right away. Learning grammar is fun and makes learning long-lasting.

My lessons do not only focus on the Italian language, but also include insights into Italian culture, from cinema to fashion, from art to design. I also periodically organize meetings with famous Italian artists, including figures from the world of street art.

Join me for a unique learning experience that will allow you to fully immerse yourself in the Italian language and culture!

I currently teach in three Schools for Foreigners and have experience with students of all levels and all ages, including children ;)

With me, you can also prepare for the state exams to obtain citizenship.
Are you interested in Italian culture beyond the language?
Do you love cinema and want to learn more about the great visionary Italian directors?
Are you passionate about art and want to know more about the Medici, the Renaissance, and contemporary Italian art, and explore icons of Italian design?

Then this course is perfect for you. I offer grammar and conversation lessons enriched with seminars on the Italian cultural scene, role-playing games, and interactive activities.

All teaching materials will be provided by me!

Regardless of your age or level, we’ll achieve great things together! :)
