Oh, this episode makes me smile when listening to it! Adriana and I are like sisters from another mister for sure! She's like the very long distant friend I didn't know I needed! We have so much fun chatting and learning all about Adriana, her life in Italy and her life growing up in Australia! She is so fun, funny and wonderful to listen to...

Message from Adriana
Hi guys! My name is Adriana, a qualified teacher from Down Under. Over the last 10 years I've worked with a range of diverse individuals. From students with learning disorders and trauma, to English as a Second Language, you name it - I've taught them! In 2022, I moved to the other side of the world - Italy. Since then, I have been teaching English at an International School and created a podcast spoken in 100% slow English to use as a resource in your language development. So if you're a fan of Education, Languages or my beautiful country of Australia - let's connect!
