My comments on tutoring Portuguese : I lived in Brasil for a year studying the language and culture whilst living with brasilians and travelling the country.

I studied abroad in the northeast region of Brasil for a year studying the language and living with brasilians and learning their culture. I have travelled to many different parts of the country and have grasped a strong understanding of the country's culture as a whole while also finding the regional differences.
I prefer the submersion approach. Listening to the language in movies, music, and also experiencing parts of the culture all help to learning a language. However, I also find vocabulary lists and verb conjugation charts helpful as well. Learning a language should be more fun than work though.

I taught learning disabled/emotionally handicapped middle school students for 7 years. I have about 3 years experience tutoring students of all ages. I have been homeschooling my own children for the past 15 years. I have experince with many subjects. I am also fluent in Spanish and currently work as a medical interpreter.
I enjoy working with students of all ages, but I especially like middle school ages. All students learn in different ways, and I have used many techniques with public school students as well as with my own children. I believe everyone needs to have the skills to research and test out their ideas.
