Experience Summary
I have a Bachelor’s degree in Foreign Languages Education in English and Portuguese, and a Bachelor’s Degree in Translation and Interpretation from Centro Universitario Ibero Americano, located in Sao Paulo Brazil. I also hold a Teacher Certificate from Brazil.
My qualifications include 11 years of teaching experience in private language schools, where I taught 12 different classes separated by age. I also taught in high schools where the classrooms were composed of 40 students. It is through these positions that I learned to be creative, patient, and effective in my teaching methods and practices. In addition, I provided effective classroom management, created innovative and efficient lesson plans, and developed detailed student evaluations.
For the past six years I have been working as a private Portuguese and English tutor catering to both students and travelling clients. I conduct both one-on-one and group tutoring lessons focusing on reading, writing and speaking. In addition, I am passionate and well versed in Brazilian culture and I try to incorporate norms and practices into my lessons whenever possible.
My ESL teacher Certificate of Eligibility with Advanced Standards is anticipated. It is my goal to combine my range of experience with my ability to be a compassionate, enthusiastic, intelligent teacher who will make a positive contribution to your educational goals.
