Summary
Originally from Rome, I completed my BA in Interpreting and Translation (2014) at the University of Trieste (Italy), focusing on Italian, English, Russian and Portuguese. After graduating, I moved to the UK and for three years I worked as a lector of Italian at the University of Hull, where I also completed my MA in TESOL with Distinction (2017). I then obtained my PhD (2018-2022) from the University of Leeds, carrying out a qualitative longitudinal case study on the Year Abroad experience from the personal perspective of UK language undergraduates in Italy.
In September 2022 I also joined the University of Hull again, in the role of MA TESOL Lecturer.
