Information About Francesco - Aberdeen teacher

Personal Description:

I grew up in Rome, where I went to school and completed studies at the classical school Liceo Ginnasio E. Q. Visconti in 1994.

Afterwards, I came to study in the UK for my undergraduate and postgraduate degrees and settled here.

Teaching Experience:

My knowledge of Italian is my main strength, not only as my native language, but also by writing articles for clients in Italy and completing Italian to English and English to Italian translations.

I regularly visit my family in Italy (Rome) and keep up to date through pod-casts on current news and the evolving vocabulary of modern day Italy.

I have been an Affiliate of the I.T.I. and have been involved with interpreting in schools, hospitals, and courts since 2015, as well as continuing my translation activity.

I have been involved with the Aberdeen Language Exchange and have always enjoyed helping people with Italian, formally or informally.

I am happy to teach one-to-one or small groups. I currently only teach online, through Skype, Zoom, Whereby and Teams.

I am a member of the European Society for Translation Studies.

Teaching Approach:

My approach is tailored to the learner: whether he or she prefers a conversational approach, a textbook one, or a combination of both.

Depending on level and needs, I will accommodate as much as possible and make an individual plan, whether you are learning out of personal interest, for work, or for school/college/university.
