Our Team

Professional background and experience

I was born in Spain and have lived in South Africa and Italy, where I completed my degree in Foreign Languages, Literatures, and Communication. After several years working in communications and international sales, I have been fully dedicated to teaching English and Spanish in middle and high schools since 2016.

What do you value most about teaching and learning?

I love understanding young people and engaging them in the subject through innovative, fun, and up-to-date teaching methods. I enjoy offering them new perspectives and tools for their growth, helping them discover and bring out the best in themselves.

What are you most looking forward to this school year at H-FARM?

I would love to pass on not only the Spanish language to my students, but also its culture—through practical examples, current events, traditions, and first-hand insights. My goal is to help them connect with Spanish in a natural, engaging way, learning with dedication as well as joy.

Tell us about your professional background and experience

I am currently the Primary School Coordinator at H-FARM International School in Rosà (VI), where I also teach Italian in Year 3 and serve as a Class Coordinator. In addition, I support the Digital Learning Coach in IT activities and lead the school’s Wellbeing project, for which I developed a dedicated curriculum. To further my professional growth, I am currently pursuing a Master’s in Leadership at Nord Anglia University, which has included in-person sessions in Prague.

After graduating from the Tito Lucrezio Caro Modern Languages High School in Cittadella, I earned a Bachelor’s degree in Primary Education (Scienze della Formazione Primaria) from the University of Padua with first-class honors (110/110 cum laude). I later completed a Master’s in Bullying and Cyberbullying at Niccolò Cusano University, graduating with top honors (110/110).

I strongly believe in continuous professional development and have attended various training courses, including one on AI applied to education in Belgium. I am also an Apple Certified Teacher.

For several years, I have been collaborating with the Whitebox Cultural Association, managing projects on digital education and the prevention of bullying and cyberbullying. I serve as project lead and trainer for the initiative “Understanding and Educating on Bullying and Digital Citizenship from 0 to 12 Years,” sponsored by the Province of Padua and the Veneto Region. Additionally, I lead the regional project #ConnessioniPositive, which has engaged schools across the entire Veneto region in raising awareness about bullying, cyberbullying, and hate speech. I have also been a speaker for my school’s project “Growing Up in the Digital Era” and a guest on TV7 to discuss bullying and cyberbullying.

What do you enjoy most about teaching and learning?

I have always been a curious, determined, and ambitious person. I ask myself many questions and constantly seek answers, especially in the field of education. I observe the society around us and believe it is essential to acquire the skills needed to understand and navigate change. This is why I consider continuous professional development indispensable.

What inspires me most is the opportunity to make a concrete contribution to children’s growth, not only by passing on knowledge, but above all by helping them develop skills. I am driven by the idea of playing an active role in their learning journey, guiding them through the different stages of their development and creating the right conditions for each child to express and maximize their full potential.

What are you most looking forward to this new year at H-FARM?

What I appreciate most about H-FARM are the opportunities for personal and professional growth it offers within a dynamic and stimulating environment focused on innovation and continuous learning. I look forward to developing and strengthening new skills, constantly challenging myself, and broadening my knowledge through a lifelong learning mindset. Indeed, I believe that ongoing professional development is essential not only for evolving professionally, but also for growing as a person and thoughtfully addressing new educational challenges.

Tell us about your professional background and experience

I’ve grown from classroom teaching into leading digital learning and STEAM: building makerspaces, running robotics competitions, and developing AI literacy programs. What ties it together is one idea: students learn best when they make, test and break things themselves.

What do you enjoy most about teaching and learning?

The moment a student stops asking “is this right?” and starts asking “what if I try this?”. I love seeing curiosity turn into ownership, and I learn just as much from my students as they do from me.

What are you most looking forward to this new year at H-FARM?

Bringing our new STEAM labs to life and weaving AI literacy and robotics into everyday projects. I can’t wait to see what students build when they have the space, the tools and the freedom to experiment.
