Spanish, Portuguese, German and English classes, conversation and translation skills.
From 39.86 C$ /h
I usually customize my classes and adapt them to the profile of the student. Age, language levels, personal interests and specific difficulties have to be taken into account. My speciality is to make my students talk without being afraid of making mistakes. I feel very rewarded when finally they are able to break their barriers. In order to do so, the class needs to be interesting and in tune with the students level and interests. Everyday life, music, news and even theatrical skills are employed to make them open up, whilst giving them a solid, correct and sound linguistic structure for life.

About Me
I am a Conference Interpreter, Translator and Language teacher. I have more than 30 years of experience teaching languages with various different techniques which include a lot of creativity and fun.
Although Portuguese is my native language, I have lived, studied and worked in Spanish speaking countries for over 10 years. I also speak a native level German, given the fact that I have been brought up in Austria.
I teach via Skype or any other online method you might prefer.
