About Me

As a professional in the Italian arts and crafts trade with over 25y of experience I started my career working in Rome as a conservator and art restorer for private and public sector clients. I have worked either as an independent and under national contracts for museums and private corporations connected to the fine arts world specialising in conservation and restoration of the national cultural and artistic heritage including the Vatican state museums, long term contracts in different institutions then free lancing for an extensive period of time I am now an independent professional artist focusing only on traditional Italian academic painting techniques lending my skills to passionate budding artists regardless of age gender and culture.
Along the way I have been hired to teach in workshops throughout Europe and often in the middle east training students in art schools and one to one tutoring where cultural and social rules only allow private tuition.
My approach to Painting never focuses solely on the technical aspect mechanically refining skills by repetition rather I use a holistic approach reaching to the inner artist and leading the way to expressing freely the potential artistic worth focusing on personality and desired subject matter goals .personally I believe that technique which is honed by refining acquired skills must develop organically bringing personal growth and artistic craftmanship .

Many of my students thanks to personal tutoring have used this opportunity to apply to art schools and academies along with clients fulfilling a life time desire to unleash their artistic potential .

I am a qualified and experienced mathematics tutor. Graduated from the Free University of Brussels in 2011, I started my career by teaching remedial courses in different schools in Brussels. I then specialized in individual academic support by following educational training at the Harvard Graduate School of Education. I have been giving private mathematics lessons daily for over ten years.

The students who follow my private lessons benefit from personalized support. The first session is devoted to an in-depth assessment of the student's mathematical knowledge. The objective is to detect its weak points and understand their origin in order to adapt my courses to its needs. I develop a tailor-made remediation program for each of my students aimed at filling each of their gaps. Over the course of the sessions, the student builds a solid foundation for learning and regains self-confidence. At the same time, I help him acquire a work methodology that allows him to gradually become autonomous in his studies.

I have a thorough knowledge of the mathematics curriculum for middle and high school (from 6th to 12th grade). I am also qualified to support students in preparing for international exams such as the SAT, the OMPT, and the International Baccalaureate (IB) in all its variations: Analysis and Approaches (AA SL/HL) and Applications and Interpretation (AI SL/HL).

Throughout my years of training, I studied and developed numerous techniques that facilitate learning mathematics. The strength of my teaching approach lies in my ability to explain, in simple terms, anything a student finds complicated. I am passionate about this profession because it offers me the opportunity to guide struggling students toward success. It is a true pleasure to see them progress and rediscover their connection with the fascinating world of mathematics.

I offer private tutoring in Paris (at the student's home) or remotely (online). My online lessons take place on an interactive whiteboard. This whiteboard is specifically designed to facilitate student/teacher interaction online. Thanks to this teaching tool, my online lessons are just as effective as in-person lessons. The student only needs an internet connection and a computer, tablet, or smartphone to participate.

Homework support isn't about getting answers faster. It's about learning how to learn.
While some parents see homework as a battle, I see an opportunity: teaching your child how his brain actually works.

In this class, your child will learn:
✓ How to actually study: not "work harder," but use methods that stick (mind maps, spaced repetition, Pomodoro technique)
✓ Time management without stress: organizing a chaotic schedule without anxiety apps
✓ When to use AI wisely: ChatGPT and other tools as learning partners, not cheating shortcuts
✓ Skills that matter: clear communication, problem-solving like a real thinker, asking good questions
✓ Support in any subject: math, languages, science, humanities, whatever they struggle with

How it works:
We start by understanding how your child actually learns, we don't impose a system that doesn't work for him.
Then we build a toolkit: proven study methods, personal strategies, technology used intelligently, and the confidence that he can learn anything.

What they take home:
A study system that works for him, not for others. Techniques he uses across all subjects. And something more important: the belief that learning isn't something that happens to him — it's something he controls.

Format: Online or Barcelona | 60–90 min sessions | Personalized to his age, subjects, and pace.
For parents wondering "Why is homework still a battle?"

Let's rebuild the foundation

Egg tempera is one of the most ancient historical art painting technique. It preserved as a main technique to paint orthodox religious icons. It is possible to learn it and paint your own icon. I have 12 years of practice teaching people how to do it. We work together step by step to understand the technique, the way to prepare wooden panel to paint an icon and the techniques of making a good project to make the icon fit to the board. We also learn how to make gold leaf layer on the halos. Your icon will be a real, crafted icon.

Do you feel stuck in your practice or performance? Do you have the skills but struggle to express your musical voice with clarity and confidence? Or maybe you’ve been performing for years but want to take your artistry further — deeper, freer, more authentically you.

That’s where I come in.

I work as a musician, coach & creative mentor, helping performers connect the dots between their artistry, mindset, and professional life.

As a violist and saxophonist with experience in solo, chamber, orchestral, classical, jazz, pop, and world music, I understand the many layers of being a musician today. It’s not just about practicing and performing — it’s also about shaping your identity, reaching your audience, and managing the behind-the-scenes work that keeps your career moving.

💡 In our sessions, we can explore whatever part of your musical journey needs support:

* 🎻 Performance & Interpretation – confidence, expression, storytelling through sound
* 🎶 Chamber & Ensemble Skills – communication, listening, blending
* 🌍 Artistic Identity – shaping your unique voice and presence as a musician
* 💡 Mindset & Stage Presence – overcoming self-doubt, nerves, or creative blocks
* 📲 Practical Support – planning projects, creating content for socials, organizing tools, and simple automations to make your musical life run smoother

You don’t have to do this alone.

Whether you’re a student, an emerging artist, or already established, we’ll work with what’s inside you — your instincts, your strengths, your goals. Sessions can be a one-time deep dive or part of a longer creative journey together.

👉 Think of it as having a coach, mentor, and creative ally for both your music and your career.

After an initial assessment, this course is designed to transform your child from a passive consumer of technology into an active, ethical AI creator.

Based on the personalized roadmap developed in the first session, the 5-week program delivers structured, project-based learning tailored to your child's cognitive strengths and interests, specifically addressing any learning barriers identified during the diagnostic phase.

What we achieve in 5 weeks:

Week 1-2: Foundations of Machine Learning & Critical Thinking: We move beyond definitions, using interactive projects to understand how AI learns (data, bias, pattern recognition). This builds critical thinking about the technology they use daily.

Week 3-4: Ethical Generative AI for Creativity: Students learn to master prompt engineering to create digital art, stories, or game concepts using generative AI tools. Safety and Ethics are paramount: we focus on responsible usage, digital citizenship, and copyright basics.

Week 5: The Final AI Creator Project: personalized mini-project (e.g., training a simple image classifier or writing a fully co-authored AI story) to demonstrate autonomy and mastery of the core concepts.

As your specialized 10+ year tech educator and coach, I ensure:

SEN Integration: Continuous adaptation of project requirements and delivery methods to ensure students with Special Educational Needs (SEN) maintain confidence and measurable progress.

Skill Transfer: We teach skills that translate directly to school projects, not just AI theory, but advanced digital literacy and structured problem-solving.
