I would describe myself as a patient, approachable and encouraging tutor who enjoys helping students build confidence.

I have near-native proficiency in Italian, developed through living and studying in Italy and using the language extensively in academic, professional and everyday settings. I have also worked professionally as an Italian Customer Service Representative, communicating with Italian-speaking customers and providing clear, helpful support. I also have previous teaching experience from the American Overseas School of Rome, where I taught Mathematics to students at secondary level. This helped me develop strong skills in explaining concepts clearly, adapting my teaching style to different learners, building confidence and creating a supportive learning environment. My key strengths include excellent communication, patience, organisation, adaptability and the ability to explain information in a simple and engaging way. I am comfortable supporting learners with speaking, listening, reading, writing, grammar, pronunciation and conversational Italian, and I can tailor lessons to suit different ages, levels and learning goals.
