About Me

Born in Brazil, raised in the United States, I have studied in an International Swiss School obtaining the Genève International Baccalauréat diploma (IB). My Portfolio includes memorable projects such as working as translator and interpreter for the FIFA World Cup, EU Institutions (Parliament and Commission), the Olympic Games and major NGOs such as Greenpeace.

I've travelled, worked and studied in multiple locations across the globe: Australia, India, France, Thailand, Spain, Belgium. I am fluent and an Internationally Certified teacher in 4 languages: English, Portuguese, French, Spanish. I can equally communicate in German, Catalan, Italian and Dutch.

Being an avid student, my distinguished educational background - ranging from Arts to Psychology, Philosophy, Yoga and Environmental Sciences - allow me to have a broad and holistic approach to my students' needs, often adapting the best methodology and program to fulfil their goals.

My fees include Online Language Consultations, International Coaching allowing both my students and me to develop more personal contact while preparing to achieve their goals.
I offer social/symbolic fees depending on the student's profile and current situation.

Deep down I am a laid back nerd who loves the outdoors, exploring the world as much as chilling inside with good cuppa coffee, my cats and plants. A complete bookworm and cinéphile - I promise I'm not THAT boring.

The objective is that: the learner masters the English language (🎧listening-comprehension,🎤 conversation, 📚 reading, grammar-pronunciation, writing...). It helps him to have language skills like native speakers. 🥇

At the same time, the learner will be 🚴‍♀️dynamic and well supervised by professional tutors who listen.
The atmosphere is distinguished: 🔥learning, interaction, no routine, no stress.

The learning tools used; videos, audios, texts, articles, images, games, stories...

We are happy to help both adults and pupils/students. If you want to learn the English language (reading, grammar, oral conversation, written production,...) or you have homework to do, or competitions/tests to take, 🏆 contact us :)

I offer you a new learning experience.

To the uninitiated, a grammar book seems to be written in another language because the meaning of the words is incomprehensible. In a down-to-earth way, I'll translate the grammar into familiar words. With my tailor-made teaching you will accelerate your learning while having a positive mindset.

You can book a complete course with regular sessions or individual lessons to overcome a specific problem, such as pronunciation or a particular point in grammar.

Learning a foreign language is not a linear process that consists of memorising a list of words, and speaking a foreign language is not an oral translation exercise.

There are two types of approaches to acquiring knowledge:

When asked what year follows 1999, you can immediately answer 2000 without having to think for a long time and, above all, without having memorised each number individually, starting with 1, 2, 3 ... You know that numbers are formed according to a certain pattern. With only ten digits, you can form an infinite number of numbers and always know which number comes next.

When it comes to the alphabet, words and sentences, it's more or less the same, but school pedagogy, school textbooks and regular lessons still follow the rote learning approach. In the lessons I propose, you will learn to use patterns because this is more efficient and faster.

Learning is easy, but unlearning bad habits is extremely difficult. This makes it all the more important to learn the right reflexes as early as possible.

My offer is aimed at both teenagers and adults who want to acquire a solid foundation of the Latin language without the time-consuming diversions of absurd school methods.

I offer individual or group lessons for Latin. The methods are based on cognitive science and, in particular, comparative linguistics. My flexible programme can be tailored to your individual needs.

What is particularly important to me:

motivating my students and help them establish a learning rhythm;
encouraging their creativity;
helping them become more familiar with the language;
teaching them the letters and their sounds;
strengthening their memory by training their phonological loop;
teaching sentence building plans instead of memorising sentences;
explaining how language works so that my students can become independent as quickly as possible.

I look forward to meeting you.

I am an American living in Switzerland. English is my first language, as well as having been one of my primary studies during my time in college. I excel in English at all levels; however, my primary focus is to help people through the beginner and intermediate stages. As someone who learned English as their first language, I find the textbook way of teaching English to be a little rigid; my goal is to help you learn English in the most natural way possible.

Do you want to speak English with more confidence, clarity, and comfort? This class is designed for students who want to improve their real-life communication skills—whether for travel, work, studying abroad, or simply connecting with people from around the world.

My name is Nelson, and I am a passionate English teacher from Tanzania with three years of experience helping students of all ages and levels achieve their language goals. I currently teach online from Russia, and I've worked with students in classrooms, one-on-one online, and even helped a student pass the IELTS exam to immigrate to Canada.

What makes my class different?

· Practical, real-world focus – We don't just study grammar rules. We practice speaking, listening, and responding naturally in everyday situations.
· Relaxed and supportive environment – Mistakes are welcome here! I believe learning happens best when you feel comfortable and encouraged.
· Personalized to YOU – Every student has different goals. Whether you need English for work, travel, exams, or just for fun, I adapt each lesson to fit your needs.
· Cultural insights – As someone who has lived in Tanzania, visited the USA and South Africa, and now lives in Russia, I bring a global perspective to our conversations.

What we can work on together:

· Everyday conversation and small talk
· Pronunciation and accent improvement
· Grammar made simple and clear
· Business English and professional communication
· Exam preparation (IELTS, TOEFL, school exams)
· Reading, writing, and listening comprehension

I speak English (C1), Swahili (native), and Russian (B1–B2) , so I truly understand the challenges of learning a new language. Let's work together to build your confidence and help you express yourself freely in English!

For adults, I offer online "Free Talk" classes. These classes are very popular and are ok for any age. I currently have a group class of people aged 60s to 80s. If you want to talk about daily life, news, hobbies, traveling, etc. and enjoy speaking English, then this is a good class to do it. Usually a 1-hour class is best as it gives plenty of time. If a shorter, or longer, class is better for you I can do that too. Just ask :)
