I am a writer and a regular contributor to Easy Milano. My day job is teaching Business English at a pharmaceutical company based in Milan. I also work as a freelance writer and translator. A graduate in English from Oxford University, I have been teaching for other 30 years both in the UK and in Italy. A long-time collaborator with John Peter Sloan, I published Business English (Gribaudo) in 2020. The book was launched with “Il Sole 24 Ore” and sold in newsstands throughout Italy. I have a website for people who want to learn Business English: Pay As You Learn.com. The site features keywords and phrases, audio and exercises to help professionals improve their language skills. I am and I write about cultural events in Milan. I am also a “buongustaio” who loves Italian food! Looking for an English teacher in Milan? Need an expert copywriter or Italian to English for a project? Contact me! I’ll be happy to discuss exactly what you need and explain how I can help you with any English-related project.
