Sandra

I am tri-lingual, my father was Italian, mother German and I was born and bred in the UK. I have spent the past 10 years in Italy and now have moved back to the UK. I originally trained as an actress at LAMDA (3 yrs) and have worked as a professional actress and teacher in both the UK and Italy. I founded and ran a successful English speaking theatre company in Rome and have worked in various fields from voice coaching, to directing, from voice overs to translating plays in both English and Italian. I am also a certified Yoga teacher and teach yoga too. I enjoy a challenge, am patient and easy going, as well as being focused on getting results.

Tutoring Experience

I was the teaching professor at the prestigious Italian National Drama Academy - Silvio D'Amico in Rome. I have taught drama and English privately, in small groups and in the classroom. I have experience in working with various levels and ages- from children to professional business clients. I also have experience preparing people to deliver engaging TED style talks both in the UK and abroad.

Tutoring Approach

I tailor my classes to suit the student's specific needs. We all learn in different ways and my strengths lie in finding the key to how a student learns best and adapting accordingly. I will discuss the aims and criteria with the student and keep updating our goals as time progresses ensuring that lessons are rewarding as well as challenging.
