Over 10 years of experience in working with English and Continental Portuguese (tutoring, interpreting and translating). I lived and worked in Portugal for over 1 year, and I have been living in the USA for 5 years. The combination of living in a native environment and having Master's Degrees in Portuguese and English gives me a very good comprehension of grammar, literature, culture and history, among other areas.

After spending a year in Illinois as a Brazilian exchange student in high school, I went on to work for General Motors in my hometown of Porto Alegre (Brazil) as an assistant to a branch manager. Among many duties I was also in charge of translating memos, letters and financial reports to and from English and Portuguese. After 15 years in that position I moved to Florida (USA) in 1993, where I have worked in a number of companies and acquired even more experience and knowledge of the English language.

My teaching style is based on the premise that students want to learn and succeed. At times they are blocked in that endeavor by the level of difficulty, the complexities of a lesson or personal obstacles. It's my job as a tutor to find out what that hindrance is and help the student overcome it. I vary my teaching style based on the needs of the student. I'm a journalist by trade. My love of writing began at an early age. A bachelor's degree in Theater immersed me in the works of Wiliam Shakespeare and from there I became fascinated with history and living history at that. I then obtained a Master's degree in Journalism to expand my skill set in both the English and Spanish languages. I have extensive experience working with bilingual students of all ages in the subjects of English-grammar,composition, literature. Spanish-grammar, conversational. History- World, Latin, American.

I was born in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to an American father and a Brazilian mother. When I was 6 years old, my mother remarried a Brazilian diplomat and I spent many years traveling, living and studying abroad. In 1964 we settled down in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, where I completed my studies and passed in two open tests - Law and Portuguese-English. I am a Teacher and Lawyer in Brazil. In Fortaleza, Ceara , Brazil where I have lived before moving to the USA in 2009, I taught languages in many and different Institutes and Schools and private students. I preferred working in the area of education and teaching rather than lawyering because, for me, teaching is more rewarding and fulfilling. When I lived in Brasilia-DF, Brazil I was the director, coordinator, teacher trainer and student advisor for Instituto Cultural America - a language Institute for Brazilian students/exchange program stu

With over sixty months' experience at the US Department of State, I have seen firsthand bureaucratic morass gone wild. From lengthy "informational" sessions, to quotidian meetings held just for the sake of holding meetings, public bureaucrats waste taxpayers' dollars and time, in the process doing all of us a disservice. As a result of these efforts, the US Department of State recognized my organizational and managerial skills by awarding me with a Meritorious Award, in addition to the aforementioned Award for Corporate Excellence. Merely listing my fluency in foreign languages (English, Spanish, French, German, Italian, Greek, Russian, Arabic, Portuguese, and Amharic) does not do justice to the hours—nay, years!—involved in learning them, nor does it fully capture my natural gift for—and dedication to—mastering the linguistic intricacies of each language. I have dedicated my li

During 2005-2007 I participated as a Dual Language Elementary teacher (Spanish-English) at Palm Beach County's School District, FL. I served as a second grade teacher for the first school year and as a fourth grade teacher for the second period. In this innovative program I was in charge of two different groups of children who were completely immersed in Spanish during half of the teaching contact hours. For the 2008-2009, I participated as a Dual Language Teacher (Math and Science). I worked concurrently for 5th and 6th graders at a Charter School in Colorado. Since 2010, I've been an independent Tutor under the No Child Left Behind act, serving students of Polk and Hillsborough Counties in Florida. I enjoy tremendously my interaction with pupils. I like to observe how their self esteem increases as they master difficult concepts. I help them tackle these concepts by introducing more
