Language Lover, Digital Nomad, Green Fingers.
I have lived as an international for the last 15 years and at the moment I am based in the south of Portugal. Thanks to living in different countries I am familiar with the challenges that learning a new language can pose and the beauty that comes from slowly understanding a new culture through it.
In the last 4 years I have been supporting and guiding students of the English and Italian language to identify and reach their learning objectives, making experience with over 250 students from all over the world with very different language levels and learning styles.

Me as a Teacher
As a teacher, it is important for me to connect to my students and their needs. I am flexible with my teaching methods and open to structure a learning program that matches the student level, personality and interests.
My lessons & teaching style
Quoting Socrates: Education is the kindling of a flame, not the filling of a vessel.
I base my teaching on this simple and powerful principle, believing that each one of us has an immense power that can unleash if left free of learning by pleasure and not by imposition.

Simone is a really good teacher. He doesn't only give the lessons, but he follows your needs, records your progress, there is always something to learn from him. The lesson with him never gets bored.
when I start to have more time I would like to practice my writing with him as well.

Simone's calm and patient approach makes it really easy to enjoy his lessons even when the business of life gets in the way of study - I always finish a lesson having learnt something new.
