Ciao tutti, my name is Felicity. I grew up just outside of London, in Windsor (near the Queen!), but I'm also half-Italian on my dad's side. Growing up with my grammar-nerd English mum and Italian grandparents made me passionate about languages - as well as pasta - and that's something that I carry with me to this day.

Ciao tutti, my name is Felicity. I grew up just outside of London, in Windsor (near the Queen!), but I'm also half-Italian on my dad's side. Growing up with my grammar-nerd English mum and Italian grandparents made me passionate about languages - as well as pasta - and that's something that I carry with me to this day.
Living in Italy, in Naples, Parma and Milan, I have worked as an English teacher for both children and adults, and as a translator for a number of years.
These days I mainly work as a freelance writer, but also offer online tutoring Italian (any level), as well as in ESOL and school English up to GCSE, plus school History up to A-Level.
What to expect:
All lessons will be individually tailored to each student's specific needs, priorities and goals.
We can focus on speaking, writing, reading, listening, grammar, vocabulary, essay writing or any other skills/topics you are interested in.
I recommend 45-minute lessons, as research shows this is the optimum time for concentration levels when learning.
Available for both adults and children of all ages.
