Son of Thor (8) is about to be home educated after three years in Italian primary school. By his mum, a EFL teacher of twenty years, who has frequent attacks of the collywibbles when she wonders if she is up to the task. His father, the Italian Sock Dropper, was initially very much against the idea (not least cos he didn't think handcuffs would suit him), but changed his mind after yet another year of failure on the school's part to live up to his (culturally low) expectations.

I am married to an Italian and have made a small Italian all of our own, whom I am now homeschooling. I have worked as a teacher for twenty years, the last 13 here in Italy. I live in a very rural location not far from Milan in an old farmhouse with more pets than a sensible person would have.
