Experience Summary
I am Brazilian and I lived in that country for 25 years. I have two B.A.'s made there and I have also worked and studied in different countries. I have an extensive international experience on teaching Portuguese language for foreigners in the five continents. I was the official Portuguese language teacher at the Universidad Nacional San Antonio Abad of Cusco, Peru. I have noticed an increase in the interest and importance of this language, so much so that The Economist magazine released an article on the subject that I think is worth reading:

We are talking about the third European language most spoken in the world (only behind Spanish and English) - 240 million total speakers, 9 countries.
So... "Bem-vindo meu amigo!!" (Welcome my friend!)
Teaching Style
I use printed and digital material in my classes which are very effective, especially designed for Spanish and/or English speakers who want to learn Portuguese.
My Hobbies
Church, read, internet, beach, travel.
