About me - English
Effective teachers are the ones who are completely taken by the sheer feeling of making a difference through education, they buy a one-way ticket for an endless rollercoaster full of hopes, fears, people, books and rewarding moments. I am one of these people and this is what drives me professionally.
I have a Bachelor of Arts – Portuguese and English and I also hold an internationally recognized qualification in the TEFL area. I am an experienced and committed language teacher who enjoys meeting new people, getting to know their goals when it comes to learning another language and provide them with fun, creative and meaningful lessons.
