About Beatrice
I have a strong passion for the Classical world. I started to study Ancient Greek and Latin at the high school, in Italy, and I immediately fell in love with them. I carried on studying Classics at the University of Pisa where I obtained my BA in Classics and my MA in Classical Philology and Ancient History. During my MA, I developed a special interest in Greek Epigraphy. In 2015, I won a scholarship to teach Italian in the UK high schools and I moved to London. I have finally been admitted in UCL, where I took my PhD in Ancient Greek History and specialised in Ancient Cyprus. I am the first in my family to obtain a degree (and a PhD too).
When I am not working on my beloved Greek inscriptions, I love to play piano and to go to the beach. I have a very strong passion for the Mediterranean sea.

I love teaching; it has always been one of my greatest passion.
Over the last three years, I have been teaching seminars of Ancient History at University College London in the History Department, classes of Ancient Greek at Royal Holloway University of London in the Department of Classics, and classes of Latin in the London Summer School in Classics organized by UCL Greek and Latin Department. In 2015, I have been teacher of Italian in the UK high schools and since 2013, I am a private tutor of Classics (Ancient languages and Classical civilisation) and I prepared students for GCSE and A lelvel exams. I am used to teaching a diverse student body – students of different nationalities from 11 to 70 years old – and in my personal and work life I have always demonstrated a strong commitment to equal opportunities by being sensitive to circumstances of other people. I usually create a classroom that fosters respect and where open polite communication is the norm.
In my classes, I try to convey my curiosity and passion for the Ancient World; I provide a stimulating learning environment that encourages students to take part actively in the class, supporting them and considering their needs, with the hope to get them more engaged in the subjects. Their learning experiences should be authentic and should empower them as active participants in their education.
As language teacher of Ancient Greek, I taught face-to-face classes – which, however, have been recently moved online because of the covid pandemic – and a language lab where I tutored students individually and I helped them to carry out extra-exercises and translations to consolidate topics covered during classes. I initiated students to the reading of original Greek texts in prose and verses. Additionally, I created extra teaching materials – handouts and videos – to help students in their preparation.
I adopt the same methodology when teaching Latin in the London Summer School in Classics.
It is crucial that students feel supported in their activities. The goal of my teaching approach is to foster students’ competencies to become professionals and researchers of the future. The greatest gratification is seeing my students satisfied with their progress and with what they have learned during the academic year.

Beatrice has a strong passion for her work. Her knowledge of the subjects is both deep and vast, and the meetings with her have been stimulating and rich of insights. She has been very patient with me, helping me to overcome the difficulties due to my weak background in humanities.
Having studied classical languages at an academic level and obtained a PhD in ancient history, Beatrice is very proficient in Ancient Greek. She is also a dedicated and patient teacher with years of experience teaching classical languages, who is creative and kind in her approach to students.
I first met Beatrice at the beginning of our PhD programme in Classics in London, and had the pleasure to work with her during conferences and seminars until she obtained her doctorate at UCL. I believe that Beatrice is an excellent addition to the Superprof team as she is a very bright and qualified individual, as well as a pleasure to work with. Her knowledge and expertise in Latin and Ancient Greek language and literature, as well as ancient history, was a huge advantage to the entire department. Indeed, during my acquaintance with Beatrice she has also proved to be a dedicated, professional, organized and hardworking HE teaching assistant.
I know Beatrice from our time as colleagues teaching Classical languages at Royal Holloway. I came to know her as a dedicated and passionate teacher of Ancient Greek. She was always ready to go the extra mile to support her students and help them realise their potential. I can enthusiastically recommend Beatrice as a Greek teacher. You are not likely to find anyone with such knowledge and enthusiasm.
Beatrice and I met during our Ph.D. program in Ancient History. During this period, she began teaching ancient Greek to students at different proficiency levels. Beatrice has proven herself to be a conscientious, patient, and supportive teacher. She not only is an expert in ancient Greek but also has demonstrated the ability to impart knowledge in an engaging and professional manner.
