Cecilia has been working at Pace University since 2016. She is currently the Program Coordinator for the Biology and Chemistry Dept. in Pleasantville and has been a volunteer tutor for Pace Global Pathways since 2020, where she's been leading most of the program's conversation groups. She is an avid linguist, who has earned two Bachelors in English, one from the University of Florence, Italy and one from PACE University. She is on track to complete a Master of Science in TESOL International in May 2021. Born and raised in Italy until her early 20s, she stands by Federico Fellini’s quote: “A different language is a different vision of life.” Before moving to the USA, she has worked in Germany as a civilian for NATO. She subsequently worked for Italian fashion companies in Manhattan while translating and teaching Italian for language schools on her spare time. She has taught English at an international school for adults and has volunteered to teach English to refugees. She thinks of her classroom as a culturally responsive environment, where students and teacher share knowledge and skills with the help of their home languages and cultures.
