These classes are completely adapted to the student's needs and level of understanding of the Portuguese language (A0-C2). The content presented ranges from conversations, tutoring, grammar studies, history, and intercultural exchanges. Usually, a variety of topics are brought to the student (music, movies, etc.) and studies are held in a flexible pass.
The most important is for the student to feel comfortable and learn the language in a fun and easy-going manner.
Extra information
Our first class will be a conversation about your goals and how I can help you reach them at comfortable timing for yourself. The classes are supposed to be a safe space for your learning.

About Me
I have been living abroad for a long time and learned to adapt to intercultural settings and other people's needs. Language barriers are not an issue for me to overcome.
I have taught English and German to non-native speakers in various contexts, from informal friendly meetings to in-class settings in refugee camps.
I am very open minded and love to not only share my experiences but hear and learn more from others everyday.

Bachelors Degree in Languages and International Relations - Universidade do Porto, Porto, Portugal
Masters Degree in Human Rights and Conflict Management - Scuola Superiore Sant'Anna, Pisa, Italy

Are you looking for support for your child? Does your child have difficulties following the subject matter of the IB Diploma or Abitur and feels overwhelmed?

Your reason for reading:
Ever since I was born, my curiosity has never been contained - I was always looking for new challenges and as soon as something interested me, I wanted to know everything about it, no matter how long it took. Among my friends and colleagues, I am known for familiarizing myself with new topics in a very short time and developing a profound understanding

The key to success: Education.
In my opinion, free education is the highest and most valuable asset we have and we should do everything we can to continuously educate ourselves.

At this point, it would be wrong to say that "unfortunately" everyone is knitted differently. Thank God this is exactly the case and this is where the biggest problem in our society begins. Even in the early years we are not optimally encouraged. Parents try their best to give their children the best education, but they and the teachers are often overwhelmed by the situation at school. Of course, this is not entirely the fault of the teachers. Imagine supporting 30 children individually in 90 minutes. Effectively this means 3 minutes for each child and now they see your own daughter or son trying to explain a complex task in that time - let's be honest! Here it quickly becomes clear that this is not only too little time for your child, we would also fail because of it.

Always looking for self-optimization:
Self-optimization has rarely been worth as much as it is today. I teach students from all walks of life and this is what I love about my job and why I ended up becoming a personal coach.

Inflation does not only exist in the economy, knowledge is also inflationary in education. Once we stop and continue to educate, over time our level of knowledge becomes less valuable. So we have to do something to educate ourselves.

Achieve goals:
My goal is to give your daughter or son the best possible education in exactly the subject where most people fail - mathematics.

It doesn't matter whether it's in the German Abitur or in the International Baccalaureate (IB Diploma), mathematics is a big hurdle for most people. My goal is to make this hurdle easier for your child. This includes not only dryly explaining tasks - no, but restoring fun and motivation. Nobody wants to study for something where they have the feeling of standing in front of a wall and only understand the train station.

In the end, I want your child to be prepared with a deeper understanding and to lose the fear of difficult tasks. For this, I optimize learning techniques, fill in gaps, and see where your child's individual goal is. In the end, your child should go to my lessons in a tailor-made way and optimally supported. Of course, I'm not a silver bullet and development varies from student to student, but my personal aim is to offer you premium service clothing that is otherwise rarely found on the market.


Thank you for your interest

My goal is not only to teach you the language but ensure you the ability to learn by yourself in the future. We have limited time and limited energy and I know for the fact that you can’t have a teacher forever. However, once you build a solid foundation of a language and figure your ways out about that language, you will be able to learn and improve the language for life long. And this is my philosophy of being a Chinese teacher.
My name is Jing , from Guangzhou, China. I have “Certificate for Teachers of Chinese to Speakers of Other Languages” from Confucius Institute, Beijing. I have worked as a Chinese teacher teaching foreign students more than 10 years in different countries. The Chinese courses I have taught were basic Chinese, Conversational Chinese, Advanced Chinese, and Business Chinese. Meanwhile, I introduced Chinese traditions and organized cultural activities. Currently, I am a freelancer working for a language institute in Berlin. Before that, I worked as a full time Chinese Instructor in Okan University, Istanbul, Turkey. I was a both full-time and part-time Chinese for teenagers in Turkey, for kids in Poland, adults in Spain.
My philosophy being a Chinese teacher is also the dissemination of Chinese culture and the promotion of integration between Chinese and foreign culture. I enjoy every second in the lessons when I am teaching Chinese and what I do is to make your learning fruitful and full of fun, I know well the common difficulties of learning Chinese for foreign students and how to adapt teaching to achieve the best results. I am up to date with modern technologies such as online teaching, social media and other latest teaching methods.

Are you trying to level up quickly to beat your peers in chess? You just found recently the game exciting and wanna learn more about it? Or are you preparing for a company or informal/formal chess tournament?

I've got your back. With my personalized training, you will be able to improve your game in a few weeks. I will provide you with the tactics, strategies, openings, material, and a training plan so you can study on your own and become a better player in no time.

What is in the training lessons:
- Measure of your current level
- Finding your playing style
- Personalized training plan (openings, middle game, end game, tactics, strategy, time management)
- Level up your skill and depth of thought (being able to think many moves beyond your opponent)
- If you want to improve your blitz/bullet level I can also help you with that!

About me:
As a seasoned chess player with over 15 years of experience, I have honed my skills and competed in various international tournaments, showcasing my love for the game. However, my passion for chess has transcended competition, and in 2018, I made the decision to transition into a career as a professional chess tutor. Now, I find great joy in sharing the intricacies and beauty of chess with my students, and helping them to develop their own strategies and techniques. It's incredibly fulfilling to see my students grow in their understanding of the game and to watch their progress over time.

We can even try an online lesson if you don't want to spend time commuting. I know how difficult is to find the right mentor and therefore I offer you this option to help you.

Looking forward to meeting you and helping you improve your chess skills soon.
Talk to you soon,
Leo
