Experiences
While I was studying energy engineering, I did volunteer work teaching Portuguese grammar to low-income local teenagers. I fell in love with teaching and decided to start giving private lessons. I have been teaching Portuguese, English and Maths for 6 years, and started teaching Portuguese to foreigners one year ago. So far it´s been amazing: I really love what I do!
I also love music, movies, series, animals, food, learning in general, exercising and traveling. I went on a short exchange trip to the UK, I’ve visited other countries, and lived in 3 different regions of Brazil. All of this means that I have some real experiences that I can share with you while we have our fascinating Portuguese classes. We can also learn about different Brazilian accents.
As I learned English in a traditional language school, I understand that this method doesn’t work for everyone, and students may feel like they are not making much progress. Because of that my passion is to teach students individually, so that I can keep up with their learning journey and adapt lessons more effectively to each student
I have so much to share with you and I know you have too. I’m really excited about getting to know you, understanding what you love and what you don’t like andyour experience learning Portuguese up to now. So, book you class: I am certain that we are going to have a really good time!
