My skills
My name is Olga, I'm a multilingual (English/Greek/Italian) freelance translator and EFL teacher, and I live in Milan/Italy. I am a highly professional, creative and results-driven EFL teacher with experience in teaching adults and young learners, encompassing diverse backgrounds, beginners to advanced, from university students to very young children. I'm Interested in Alternative Pedagogy and Teaching through Play & Outside the Classroom (Forest School).
During the last seventeen years, I have worked across education (as a Celta Certified ESL teacher), administration and translation services in multicultural environments and came across travellers and working partners from allover the world. I've also offered voluntary help to immigrants and their children, and to homeless people, through various volunteering networks and local associations in Milan and Athens.
I am a fluent user of three languages (English, Italian, Greek) and a graduate of the National University of Athens in Human Sciences.

About Me
Apart from being a teacher and translator, For the last 5 years I've been working as a volunteer offering help to immigrants and the homeless of my area.
I'm an amateur singer and I occasionally play my guitar too; a self-taught hobbyist jeweller (check my page here: ); a cat-talker; a daydreamer, and a curious reader and music listener.
I'm a strange spices buyer and impossible recipes hunter, an experimental cook who loves cooking ''the Mediterranean way'' for a big group of friends around a table.
I love wandering around the city, looking for that busker or that clown or that street magician at the next corner of the street. You may find me participating or arranging some music/singing gatherings or jamming sessions with friends.
Having travelled around the world, I have a strong understanding of and respect for the people and the cultures of the world. I'm an adventurous person with a flair for responsibility, communication and organisation; a responsible social worker and/or volunteer who enjoys the opportunity to meet and help people of different backgrounds and co-travellers.
