Meet The Team
Modern Languages Staff
Giacomo Fabbrini
I'm the Head of Modern Languages. I've been in language teaching for 14 years - as an Italian language teacher for 10 years and a Digital Learning Manager for 4 years. My background before this is diverse: I've worked as an actor, an HR consultant, a recruiter and a store manager. I have worked for big companies, Universities and the UK Government. I’m honoured to run the Modern Language division for a such renowned institution and I’m planning to help the students to have a quality and fun experience. Outside of work, I like theatre, cinema, board games, going on my bike and trying new restaurants.

Yuko - Japanese Trainer F2F and Online
Konnichiwa! I've been teaching for over 9 years. I believe that language learning is about immersing yourself in a world of new cultural experiences and practical application of the language. I try to make studying Japanese an enjoyable and relaxing experience, where you learn the language but also gain insights into Japanese culture. I teach practical and natural Japanese to use in real-life situations and help you communicate. I am here to guide you every step of the way. Outside of teaching, I enjoy running, baking, drawing, exploring art galleries, and learning Spanish.

Ciao, I am Rosalia and I have been teaching Italian since 2010. I speak English, French, Spanish and Mandarin. I have taught in Italy, China, both in schools and universities and teaching for me is more of a vocation than a job.

I am a passionate and enthusiastic language trainer. I have been teaching the Italian language and culture for 10 years in London, Seoul and Milan, both face-to-face and online, to classes and individuals with different levels, purposes and backgrounds. I see the teacher’s role as that of a facilitator, that is why my classes are student-centred with the use of communicative methods and authentic materials. Learning should be engaging and enjoyable to progress faster and keep the motivation high.

Ogenki desuka?
I have over 14 years of experience teaching Japanese. Learning another language is not just about words and grammar. A people's history and culture are reflected in their language. One of the best moments in my teaching experience was seeing my students become Japanese speakers, and Japanese became part of their lives. I love it when social interaction grows and expands. Language helps us understand the world so let's discover it together!!
