In Brazil, I was teaching Portuguese to a group of Canadians and two German girls. I just needed to quit the lessons because of my Exchange Program in the US (2011). Many people are interested in learning Portuguese due the World Cup in 2014 and the Olympic Games in 2016, both in Brazil. Also, they are hiring English teachers, since now Brazilians want to learn English to work in those games. It is a good opportunity if you want to go to Brazil. I am a very communicative person and I like to encourage students to talk too...even if you are shy.It doesn't matter if you have no idea of how and what to say, practicing is the best tool and Im here to help you. Since I know phonology and phonetics, I can help with the pronunciation. Basically, there are some techniques you can use to make your speaking sounds more natural. But I do it with examples you will never forget, so, it's a funny way

I was born in Brazil and lived and taught there until 2006. Portuguese is my original language. I have taught elementary and middle school in Brazil for over 11 years and pre-K for the past 11 years. In Brazil, Portuguese was a required course to teach like English is a required subject here in the United States. I love teaching and believe this is what I was meant to do. In Brazil, I also volunteered to teach adults in the evenings to read and write.

My teaching style for Spanish is proficiency-based, culture-based and student-centered. My college students master basic Spanish vocabulary and grammar through writing grocery lists, ordering from a menu, describing how they are feeling, and even decorating skull cookies for the Day of the Dead. On a similar note, I teach children by discovering and exploring Spanish with them. Together we decorate Day of the Dead cookies, create and label picture posters, and play games in Spanish to practice vocabulary. Each activity always targets the child's strongest learning styles and their comfort zones. I began tutoring Spanish as an undergraduate twenty-five years ago. In college, graduate school and as a professor I wrote literary analyses in Spanish, English and Portuguese. Many of these papers were written from historical, sociological or psychoanalytic perspectives. I taught all levels of

I love working one-on-one or in small groups. I am very encouraging and understand that each student has his or her own learning style. I am adaptive to these varying needs. I believe in positive reinforcement. I never get frustrated with a student and will try different methods until I find one that works with each particular student. I understand that my work not only helps a student to understand the subject, but also helps with the student's feeling of confidence and self-worth. As a graduate, summa cum laude, with degrees in English and Voice, I am a highly driven individual. With my time spent as a Writing Center Consultant, I worked directly with students with a variety of writing needs. As both an independent and a corporate proofreader, I gained exceptional English language skills. My academic papers have always received the highest praise and I was at the top of my class. I hav
