I have more than 10 years of experience as a tutor. My education focused on Humanities and included Latin and Greek, English, Italian, and Scandinavian Languages and Literature; History, Philosophy, Art History, Creative Writing; Astronomy, Biology, Chemistry, Physics. I hold a MA in English (hons) and have presented original research at symposia and conferences. I also have published specialised articles.

I have lived and worked in the UK, Italy, and Sweden, and I am now a PhD student at UCL, where I research Charles Dickens and Victorian dream theory.

In my free time, I write fiction, play volleyball, and train in martial arts.

Availability: I am available during weekdays and weekends. Classes can take place at my home, at the tutee`s, or in a public space. I am happy to offer our first lesson at no charge.

Willing to travel: 20 miles

Experience: I have worked with children approaching English and/or Italian for the first time, as well as with adult learners who needed help to pursue their dream job. Mostly, I have worked with students aged 12-19, supporting them throughout the academic years and preparing them for exams and tests.

I have also taught to small classes (10-15 pupils) and held language and literature workshops.

I also work as a freelance translator and content writer (English and Italian), as well as doing research for my PhD.
