About Me

I lived in Madrid , Spain for two years before moving to Milan, Italy ten years ago. I've been teaching English to foreigners for almost 20 years. I started doing it as a part time job during the summer holidays as I was teaching in a school the rest of the year and it became my full time job when I moved to Spain. I've taught students who didn't speak a word of English when they started and even students who were perfecting their language skills at an advanced level. I have completed various courses, like TEFL and Teaching ESL students in mainstream classrooms. I am also very fluent in Italian mainly because I've watched Italian TV most of my life, I studied it till an advanced level and obviously because I live here!

I teach all subjects in English to both mother tongue English speakers and foreigners. I am used to having students with no English both at the beginning of the scholastic year and even throughout, sometimes as late as one month before the end of the year. After school I still give private lessons to both children and adults who want to improve their English
