I am an enthusiastic smart and competent tutor. Currently I am teaching Italian, Latina and Ancient Greek. I graduated on 26th February with honours (110/110 cum laude), MA in Classical Philology and Ancient History from University of Pisa. I have a BA in Classics, (110/110 cum laude).
I started to study Classics when I was fourteen, at High School, and I decided to cultivate my interest in the Ancient World. I read Classics at University where I took exams in Ancient Greek and Latin language and literature. I have acquired a good knowledge of Greek and Latin palaeography, through direct analysis of medieval manuscripts and the Latin and Greek papyrology, attending the seminars at The Vitelli Institute of Florence.
I also developed a practical experience and good working knowledge of archaeology theory and practice, taking part in an excavation conducted in Cilicia. During my studies, I read many books in the original Greek and Latin language, acquiring solid literary-critic skills, as well as linguistic and historical analysis. I
know many languages: Italian, English, French, German, Spanish and I can understand well the written Modern Greek.
