Hi my name is Marco, I'm a native italian speaker from Pescara, a beautiful city in the center east coast of Italy, I graduated in banking an finance in 2012 and I used to be an accountant but my real passion is teaching. I have been teaching for the past two years and I'm currently studying to become a business teacher. I taught for six months in a no profit organization dedicated to immigrants and foreigners.

I'm here to help any kind of sudents no matter they are beginners, intermediate or adavanced w...
