Experiences
Let’s be honest: the best way to learn a language it’s practicing. That’s what I believe and that’s what I have been doing and noticing my whole life, learning languages and knowing different people from all over the world.
My name is João Paulo, and, just like you, I’m also a person who learns languages. In my childhood I had french lessons for 8 years, I took spanish classes, I started to learn italian (but I had a bad teacher, so that language I’m still need to come back to more lessons someday), I know and have a passion for the Brazilian Sign Language (LIBRAS) and I learned english by myself, talking to people online.
I always loved to talk to people from other countries online, but there’s a big difference between talk to a stranger to improve your knowledge and have the help of a teacher, that gonna correct you, notice the details on your speech and take you to the way of the language proficiency.
As a language teacher and a student, I know the challenges and the pressures that the students can have, but I also know the pleasure and the satisfaction that we all feel when we say “aaah, entendi” that means: “ooh, I got it”.
I have taken classes with students from all over the world, different cultures, ages and backgrounds. So, if you wanna have a good conversation with a native speaker and learn more about our beautiful language and culture, let’s do it. I’m looking forward to it.
