About Alessandra Pagus

Hello to everyone!
My name’s Alessandra and I’m 28. I was born and raised in Esino Lario, where I live now. It’s a little village near the Lake of Como, a well known place by tourists. It’s a peaceful and green environment. I spent my childhood in France,as my mum's French.So Italian and French are my native languages.
I've spent 2 years in the UK where I taught at French and Italian to English adults and teenagers.
I love travelling, animals, reading (especially literature, my favourites are Zola, Dickens and Pirandello), meeting new people and learning about their traditions and customs.
I’ve always travelled a lot as I have relatives in the USA and in France (my mum’s french).
I love teaching and since I graduated I’ve been teaching Italian, French and English and made lots of friends.
I’m a joyful and positive person and I work hard.
I've been a free lance since 2006.
I can promise you a learning experience that will be worth your money, helping you learning the language and enjoying lessons at the same time.
CONTACT ME TO FIX A LESSON!:-)

I worked as a translator both in a firm and privately.I' ve been a free lance since 2006.
I've been teaching both online and offline with language schools and organisations (like Myngle).
I'm currently teaching English and Italian for foreigners at the Oxford school in Lecco. I've been organising also different groups lessons in my office, in Esino Lario. Moreover I rent a flat here in my village (a stunning place close to the lake of Como) for my students who want an intensive course and a real experience in Italy.
I'm collaborating also with a couple of translation agencies.
