I have successfully been helping prospective university students with their personal statements, CVs, and with the whole application process. Obtaining an offer from a leading university can be a major step in one’s career and particular care should be given to the thorough and strict examination these universities give to students’ personal statements, CVs and interviews. Being willing to study abroad in the UK led me to scrutinise very carefully the admission process and gain a wide knowledge of what different universities value most in candidates. Moreover, having applied to, successfully obtained an offer from, and studied at Oxford, I have expertise in this procedure and I can help my students with useful tips and suggestions to improve their applications and let their personality and passion shine through.

Being an Italian born in Switzerland (a multicultural and multilingual country), having studied in England and in Italy, and now living in Portugal, different languages and cultures have always been an essential part of my daily life. Moreover, having studied multiple languages myself, I am particularly aware of the difficulties inherent in learning a foreign language. When teaching Italian, I shape my classes according to the students’ individual needs. I believe in enriching vocabulary and grammar lessons with little written tasks and oral conversations about Italian culture and current topics. This allows to put the theory into practice and contextualisation, and to render the classes more engaging and interesting. I also use translation as a powerful tool to delve into further aspects of the studied language.

I love to share my passion and knowledge of academia. I help students assess their past coursework to thoroughly understand where and how to improve, and support them with their essays, presentations, dissertations, exam preparation, etcetera. For instance, I can offer my students helpful guidance during the research phase, as well as accurate insight into how to effectively structure arguments and successfully expose them in a convincing and original way.
