About Me

In my 15+ years of teaching, paralleling my career in various industries such as travel, tourism, finance, interpreting, and translations, I have cultivated a unique educational approach. Holding an MSc in Psychology with Distinction from the UK and progressing towards a PhD in Clinical Psychology, my experiences span across the US, UK, Germany, Cyprus, and Greece. This international exposure enhances my teaching, allowing me to integrate real-world industry insights into my lessons. I pride myself on adapting to diverse student backgrounds, whether mentoring Premier League footballers or delving into complex academic subjects. My teaching philosophy is rooted in providing practical, industry-relevant knowledge alongside academic theories, ensuring a holistic and engaging learning experience.

Tutor Experience

With 15 years of teaching experience, my primary focus is on psychology, supporting students in their academic and research goals. I hold an MSc in Psychology with Distinction from a UK university and am currently applying for a PhD in Clinical Psychology. My international academic journey across Italy, the UK, the USA, and Cyprus has given me a rich, global perspective adaptable to diverse educational settings.

I specialise in qualitative and quantitative research methods, such as Interpretative Phenomenological Analysis (IPA) and SPSS, and am skilled in writing psychological reports on topics like social and behavioural psychology. My master’s thesis focused on substance abuse, examining the link between attachment styles and problematic drinking behaviours. This expertise allows me to support students with complex topics in psychology, particularly those related to substance use and mental health.

Alongside psychology, I teach Italian and English as a Second Language across all levels, with a focus on business communication and cultural fluency. I have also worked with Premier League footballers, helping them enhance communication skills for media engagements. This experience demonstrates my ability to tailor language education to meet specific professional needs.

In addition to psychology and languages, my background in Business Management and experience in sectors such as HR and marketing position me well to guide students in business studies.

As a tutor, I am dedicated to creating personalised, engaging learning experiences, helping students achieve success in language proficiency, psychology research, or business concepts. Teaching for me is about inspiring confidence and witnessing the transformative power of education. I am especially committed to supporting students with their dissertations in psychology, while also offering strong expertise in language and business studies.
