Experienced, university-quality instruction at low rates

I prefer face-to-face interaction, as language learning is a social experience. With that in mind, I am happy with one-on-one tutoring as well as small groups, even with different levels of experience. Also, language learning should be fun! While the basics such as vocabulary, rules of grammar, etc. are necessary, that does not mean instruction needs to be boring.
I recently completed my Master's degree in Portuguese at Brigham Young University. As part of my Master's program, I taught beginning and intermediate Portuguese for five semesters to classes both small and large. My studies included not only language and linguistics but also culture and history of both Portugal and Brazil. I have experience in teaching reading comprehension and writing as well as speaking, and am familiar with ACTFL guidelines for oral proficiency. I also have experience specifically in teaching Portugue ... read more

My comments on tutoring Portuguese : Fluent speaker, advanced experince in reading and writing

I love to help the student not only understand concepts, but also to love them. To see just how this language was formed, what it means, and how we can use them. I also want them to understand culture, through pen pals, and movies and songs. Brazil and Portugal have some of the most amazing people, places, and histories, and the world is missing out.
I am a full time student at BYU majoring in Civil Engineering and minoring in Portuguese. I have served a two year full time mission in Brazil, where I was required to interact 24 7 with the amazing Brazilian people. I learned their languange along side their rich and amazing culture. I was required to train new Americans not only in the duties of a missionary, but in the portuguese language. I have completed up to the Junior year requirements for a portuguese degree, which include advanced courses in writing, grammar, and conversat ... read more

I'm 21 and have been speaking Portuguese (Brazilian) for my entire life because my family is from Brazil. I speak the dialect from Rio which is the dialect taught in schools there. I feel this is really helpful because both my English and Portuguese are really good and that helps when trying to explain certain aspects of the Portuguese language to native English speakers who are trying to learn.
Through skype so that the student can practice writing and speaking. I do this so that the students can feel more relaxed and so that no travel is required for lessons.

I love learning and feel that all types of learning and knowledge increase our ability to more fully appreciate the beauties of life. When tutoring, I do what I can to instill this love of learning in those around me through patience and gentle motivation. My experience teaching and tutoring a variety of subjects and age groups has taught me to adapt my own tutoring methods to the learning styles and abilities of individual students.
While pursuing my own studies in college, I realized that I not only love learning but that I love to increase learning in others as well. Because of this, I spent many hours throughout college volunteering to tutor calculus and chemistry students. During my last two years of college, I worked as a chemistry teaching assistant, a position that allowed me to teach chemistry to groups of 25 college students. As evidence of my effectiveness and clari ... read more
