Hello, I'm Camila, and I'm from Brazil. I currently live and work in England as a scientist. I left my country some years ago to study in Germany, where I got my PhD degree in Biotechnology/Biochemistry. After this amazing experience, I moved to Australia to follow my partner and luckily found a position there. In Brisbane, I had a full-time position (as a researcher) but used to spend my Saturday mornings teaching German to children and youths as part of voluntary work. The teaching experience was great, and I would like to continue on this path. I'm passionate about language and want to spend some of my time teaching my native language - Portuguese.

Hi, my name is Belkis, I'm Brazilian, and I currently live in São Paulo. I am an online Portuguese teacher, but I've worked for many years as a commercial manager in a large company in Brazil. I love to make new friends and learn about new cultures and new languages. Today, what I like to do the most is to be able to help foreigners learn a little more of the Brazilian-Portuguese language and be engaged in our culture. I love being in touch with nature, going to the beach, surfing, doing outdoor exercises and meditating. I enjoy talking about spirituality, meditation, politics, sports and deep things about life! I have been helping foreigners with the Portuguese language for over two years now. I think that the best way to learn a new language is to talk with native speakers and to learn informally within the cultural context. My style of teaching is conversational, and I can help my students improve their pronunciation, listening skills and fluency. Also, I can teach grammar, and I can provide a lot of Portuguese materials to help your improvement. I firmly believe that when a student learns engagingly and enjoyably, learning happens naturally. We can talk about anything you want, and I will make sure that you will be able to connect with me so you can have meaningful learning. If you want to try learning a new language in a fun and engaging way, we can work things out.

Olá! tudo bem? My name is Clarissa, I am from Rio de Janeiro and I am a portuguese teacher living in Stuttgart.  My goal is to guide you step by step to learn to speak portuguese. However our approach will be specifically tailored to your needs. Normally I use the book Gramática ativa do português 1 and 2 as a base for exercises which cover all levels of the common European framework A1 to C2, but also other materials that encompass the skills of reading, writing, listening and speaking. And if you have an interest in Brazilian cinema, literature and music, I will be happy to show you some of my culture during our lessons :) I have a major in Portuguese and just finished my PhD degree on comparative literature.  You are welcome to book our first lesson I am looking forward to helping you! see you!

ABOUT ME / SOBRE MIM: I am a happy, lively and open person, passionate about life and the gifts that a good conversation brings! In addition to my passion for theater and artistic expressiveness in general, I love getting to know new cultures, habits, customs, things that belong to the other's universe and that make us so different and at the same time so similar! Sou uma pessoa alegre, animada, aberta, apaixonada pela vida e pelos presentes que uma boa conversa traz! Além da minha paixão pelo teatro e pela expressividade artística em geral, amo conhecer novas culturas, hábitos, costumes, coisas próprias do universo do outro e que nos fazem ao mesmo tempo tão diferentes e no fundo tão parecidos! Minha atuação como professor I have experience with private lessons personally and online on teaching platforms, including for an autistic student. At FISK, a language course, I taught a teenager's class and a children's class. I left school to take care of my sister's health, but even in a short time I managed to "made my name", as the Direction very affectionately told me. ********Although it was an incredible experience, here on italki I only teach 18+ students.******* MY TUTORING EXPERIENCE / MINHA EXPERIÊNCIA DE ENSINO Tenho experiência com aulas particulares presenciais e online em plataformas de ensino, incluindo para um aluno autista.

Through conversation, the student practices listening and speaking a lot, improving accent, diction, gradually gaining and experimenting with their vocabulary, and receiving minor corrections when necessary and welcome. If desired by the student, I recommend movies, music or books. I also love to read plays with students open to the experience! Minhas aulas são pura conversação!
