Hannah Brownlow
If something is there to be written, chances are I've had a go at it. Articles, analysis, blogs, book reviews, scripts, stories - I've done everything, stopping short only of Twitter. I have previously contributed to publications such as The Saint as a viewpoint writer and The Elephant as a writer and editor.
My passions include motorsport, Britpop, and all things Italian. I have a keen interest in travel and politics in Italy as well as its history, particularly that of Venice and its Republic; this is something I developed whilst studying for my Italian MA. I have also been a radio presenter and producer on stations FAN and STAR.
I have a TEFL qualification and have much experience of teaching English to Italian children. I have many tried and tested methods for all ages, principally focusing on teaching through music, drama and games.
