Teacher from Italy. Speaks English, French.
Mother language: Italian
My name is Camilla, I'm originally from Italy. I'm a Philosophy graduate and I got a qualification for teaching Philosophy & History in high schools. I did drama, singing and dance classes, I am very interested in the arts, in travel, in foreign languages and in general in anything that stimulates curiosity, change of prospective, interaction, self and reciprocal discovery. And that's exactly what I like about teaching: it's nothing but this continuous mutual exchange. It's about sharing what you have a passion for, spread this passion, and, above all, keep this passion alive thanks to the contribute of the students, from whom I always have something to learn.

My teaching experience has all been in Italy so far. In order to get the teaching qualification in 2013 I did an internship at a high school in Bologna, observing and leading lessons and workshops of History and Philosophy. I did a lot of tutoring for both children and adults, in subjects as Italian, English and French languages, Philosophy and History. I am passionate for Practical Philosophy, I co-founded a group that organized philosophic workshops and events in not-academic settings. I was the facilitator of the groups. I worked as an educator with children in several summer camps, so my way of teaching became more ironic an playful than it already was.
I am a philosophy professor with over 25 years of experience and a philosophical counsellor. I have taught at The American College of Greece. McGill University and presently am employed at Marianopolis College in Montreal. I am interested in ancient Greek thought, as well moral philosophy broadly conceived, philosophy of education and Existentialism.
