My comments on tutoring Portuguese : I have been teaching Portuguese to native Americans successfully, and they can confirm that, so I believe I can be considered for this position- which I would surely develop very happily.

I have taught mainly through the communicative approach, but I consider drilling and using some "not brand new" techniques that I am sure that can help students learn. On the other hand, I always keep my eyes on what is modern and try also to make learning something practical and real for them, so it can be effective. As I mentioned, my experience ranged from more audio-visual methods through the communicative approach.
I try to balance the methods I got in touch with, always adapting them to the students' needs of learning.
