I'm passionate about Nature in all of its forms.
Collaborating with the student we will try to answer different questions about the environment that surrounds he or she.
- Basics of natural science
- Basics of Technology.
- Recycling process
- Environmental impact
- Circular economy
- Composting
- Waste management
- Ecological Footprint
- Basics of biodiversity
- many more
These are just few examples of the topics that the students and I can discus.

Extra information
I believe that education mustn't be developed in "one-way flow from teacher to student" but instead it HAS to be both ways, students should learn from teachers but also teach to them. Exchanging ideas, opinions in a safe environment without the fear of judgment.
Students should be able to ask questions from the world around them, classes and laboratories must be practical and feelings should be free to "pop up"!

About Me
I am convinced that the most powerful tool in education is the question “Why?”.
I have used this tool throughout my whole education process and I continue to do so. Now, I would like to take a step forward and invite students to ask their own “whys”. I want them not to be afraid of asking their own questions. Moreover, I would like them to answer these questions and try to find the solution together.
I have always been an inquisitive person, asking questions about various phenomena. This is how my passion for nature has started. The mountain peaks were always something to reach for, the sea was a mysterious place with secrets to discover, but so was the backyard.

Experience / Qualifications
Environmental Educator for 3 years in Italy
- Organized and managed summer camps for 7 to 17 years old kids with activities based on: discovering nature, recognizing trees and traces of animals, discovering natural cycles, orienteering, map reading, and book reading
- Worked with different people involved in summer camp:from the cook, to the cleaning provider, the volunteers, to the boss and the kids' parents
Listening to every kid and giving them the chance to express themselves has been a great experience.
- Participated in the project “Palermo Città Sostenibile” (Palermo Sustainable City) organizing and managing environmental activities for students and families in Sicily
- Took part in the "European Solidarity Corps Generation RE" and "Sustainable Empowerment for European Youth"
- Directed and produced a video to raise awareness of urban solid waste and how to reduce their production taking on the EWWR 2019( European week for Waste Reduction)
- Directed and produced a video to raise awareness of responsible school tourism
Both these videos were created entirely by the team of environmental educators that I was a part of

Would you like to speak Italian?
Would you like to learn more about Italy, its rich culture, and Italian cuisine?
How about combining two into one?
If so, why not join me on an adventure where we will learn why North and South of the country are so different, what are the peculiarities of each region? And last, but not the least: why is it so "romantic"?!
Let's use this time of limited travels to learn some Italian. Thus, once we are able to travel again, you can visit this beautiful country and order your favourite pasta, pizza, cappuccino, or espresso without any language limitations!
My name is Bruno. I am a native Italian speaker currently living in Sweden. I love to travel and discover new things around me. I was born and raised in Sicily. I am proud of my origins and the culture that has shaped me. I have lived and studied in Milan, where I obtained the master's degree in Environmental Engineering. I have been working as an environmental educator since 2017. I have also participated in two international exchange programs: I spent one term in Lisbon, Portugal and one term in Bogotà, Colombia. While in Colombia, I used to teach Italian to my fellow students and I enjoyed it a lot, as a teacher and as a person.
We will work on different tasks that will gradually increase your Italian knowledge. By different examples, taken from literature, music, and everyday life, we will also explore the Italian culture. We will learn how to write - "scrivere", talk - "parlare", understand - "capire", and listen - "ascoltare".
I am sure that in no time you'll be able to speak "Italiano"!
