Irene

I am a PhD student at Trinity Laban in Creative Practice. I graduated with Distinction at Trinity Laban (MFA 2018) and graduated with Honours at Accademia Nazionale di Danza di Roma (BA Hons, 2016).

In 2012, I graduated from Liceo Classico Graibaldi, where I studied, amongst the other subjects, Italian Literature, Latin and Greek. Such classical studies have provided me with a good understanding of Italian language that goes beyond the mere ability to talk as a native speaker.

As well as being an Italian tutor, I am an dance artist and a professional teacher. I have completed my training to become Associate Fellow of the Higher Education Academy in the UK, and as a PhD student I work extensively in the academic field.

I`m young and reliable, punctual and very organised, and I also possess an enhanced DBS.

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: I have been working as an Italian Tutor for the last 3 years, teaching students at different levels.
I design personalised Italian classes for each student, from very beginners to proficient speakers.
My goal is integrating grammar with conversation, and I thrive helping students achieve their personal goals and set new ones.
Within my classes I also aim to give an insight into Italian culture: I believe that learning a new language is not only about following some rules and learning some new words, but it is about understanding a new way of thinking and expressing oneself.
