Experience Summary
In Greenville, SC I have been working as a Brazilian Portuguese translator and Tutor for about 3 years now.
In Brazil I had some experience teaching foreigners, and in the USA I had taught for the ICU (International Center for the Upstate); Now I have been giving private classes.
Depending what you are looking for, my classes can include: Introduction to the Brazilian culture (key concepts and values), cultural awareness, cross-cultural training, Brazilian Business etiquette, Life style, what to expect, getting prepared to move or travel to Brazil, geography, and of course, the language itself (Grammar, pronunciation, reading, writing, etc).
Teaching Style
I teach different levels (just some examples)
1) Survival Level: greetings and introductions, asking for information, at the airport, what to culturally expect, initial grammar, pronunciation, articles, question words, verbs, and much more.
2) Conversational Level: Daily Routine, at work, pronunciation, adverbs, future, and much more.

You may be going to Brazil on business, for a visit (world cup, Olympics), hosting Brazilian clients in your own country..... Does not really matter the reason; I am here to get you ready!
