When I started teaching Portuguese to new students (adults and kids), I tell them to use all the words in Portuguese they already know. From the first minute, we will talk, listen and think in Portuguese. With me, you will learn to speak Portuguese like a real native, including all the expressions that you cannot find in the textbook. You will learn to read books and websites and even to watch Portuguese speaking series/movies. Our lessons won't seem like traditional learning: you are going to have fun and will be waiting for the next class. You can choose to have your class face to face or online. Book a trial lesson to try a lesson before you commit and begin your transformation into a native Portuguese speaker.
I teach the English language too. It's the same method as Portuguese.
I have a degree in International Relations and postgraduate studies, Bolivian of Cape Verdean origin, resident in Brazil. I speak, read and write several foreign languages and I have a lot of passion to teach languages to all those who really want to learn English and other languages in a short time, in a very easy and practical way to compete in the international market and establish friendships with acquaintances from any part of the world, who can speak English like Australia, England, New Zealand, USA, and others. Only the will power of those who want to learn quickly and with results would be lacking. With me it's learning and going out to compete. My methods of teaching English and other languages is very practical, fun, easy to learn and I am sure you will like it.
The first thing I tell my students is not to worry about the grammar so much. You will get there. If you think that we learned how to speak before we learned the grammar, it all comes together.
My classes are designed to help you lose the fear of speaking Portuguese and be part of the conversation. Don't be scared if you notice your mouth moving in a different/weird way - speaking another language require muscles too (who'd have imagined!).
With my classes you'll be listening to music, watching tv and feeling much more confident when talking to Brazilian friends. If you'd like to book a session, I'll invite you to come prepared with 3 answers:
1) Why do you want to speak Portuguese?
2) What is your favourite Brazilian dish?
3) What is the best translation for the word "saudade"?
During my activities, I was able to achieve even more my professional experience as a teacher, presenting and developing new teaching methodologies, dealing with different types of students and situations, individual or collective.
I can prioritize the subject of interest in learning. For example: If the student wants to learn to travel, for culture, business, the classes will be exclusively directed to these preferences.
I use online platforms such as: Cool English, allthegrammars, Worldwall, Quizlet, lyrics training among many others.
Videos, audios, podcasts and other modalities work a lot. I am a funny person, patient and I love meeting new people and new cultures.
Let's learn and have a fun together.

My methodology is as dynamic and centered in the needs of the student in question. We will have a private class with Google Meet or Zoom, as well as having a virtual class platform to work on additional material, as well as having a shared calendar to set due dates or important events. Depending on the time crunch of the student, assignments can be hand in as well as activities for the student to learn synchronically as well as asynchronically.

How to describe myself as a teacher: I think the most important characteristics I could name are these: Motivation: from the moment I wake up I embrace the day with energy and excitement. I love having plans and things to do ahead of me. I also enjoy learning and improving new and old skills, I think I will always be studying something. Problem solving: I love brainstorming to face a problem. I am passionate about teaching and l learned a lot with my students and teachers in the past 10 years. I always try to develop a good relationship with my students so they can feel free to ask me their doubts. I am also an avid learner always willing to develop my skills and for that reason I took a PGDE in education and a Tesol course.
