I'm a native Italian speaker based in York. I hold a Master's in Theatre-Making from the University of York and a BA (Hons) in Cultural Heritage from the University of Milan. I have experience working as a writer and theatre director in both Italy and the UK. My work focuses on multilingual theatre and immigrant integration. Additionally, I have three years of experience as a tutor, teaching Italian Spanish and English both in Italy and the UK.

With my theatre background, I can help you practice your Italian through playful and interactive lessons, covering everything you need to know about our grammar (but don't be scared, it's not as bad as it seems) and conversation skills. I can prepare you for CILS and other official certificates, as well as teach you all the fun slang and share insights about Italian culture and literature, especially if you're a bit of a book nerd like me.

My teaching methodology is dynamic and multifaceted, integrating various approaches to cater to the diverse needs and learning styles of my students. I mix the study of grammar and conversational practice with multimedia resources such as videos and songs, and literary texts to create engaging learning experiences.I have a personal interest in linguistics, which comes in handy when studying and comparing the grammatical structures of the Italian language with English. I am self-taught in multiple languages ( English, Spanish, French, Portoguese) plus I have experience in living in three different countries (Italy, England, Argentina). My background allow me to enrich my lessons with authentic materials and cultural insights.

Overall, my teaching approach is characterized by flexibility, creativity, and a curiosity towards cultures different from one's own.
