Introduction

SpeaksEnglish, Portuguese

* Almost 10 years of teaching experience working with children and adults. * Utilizes strategies for improving speaking skills of all levels while having fun conversation. * Student-centered teaching approach. *Total Physical Response (TPR) * Native English speaker with standard American accent. * Patient and understanding. My goal in each class is for you to do more talking than me. This is the best way to improve your speaking skills. We will do this by discussing the topics that you are most interested in. Talking about things that don't spark your interest is boring and difficult, even in your native language! That's why I will prioritize getting to know you first so that I can make each class as fun and interesting as possible for you! Using this strategy, you will improve your ability to: * Speak naturally while having conversations in English. *Understand others and be understood by others. * Learn important terms related to hobbies, travel, wellness, business, and education. * Pronounce with proper phonetic pronunciation. * Understand, if you are interested, the meanings of English expressions, idioms, and slang words. We will turn your weaknesses into strengths and have fun doing so! -Successfully helped over 200 students increase their fluency -Experienced in teaching English online. -WMU graduate with a bachelor's degree in Exercise Physiology -5+ years of experience working as a fitness professional -Frequent traveler My teaching style is goal-oriented and professional. Though I do like to laugh and have fun. The goal of the first two lessons will be for me to get to know you as well as possible. After that, I will come prepared to each lesson with a lesson plan that has been customized to fit your specific wants, needs, and most importantly your interests! In the situation that you must cancel a class, please do not stress. Just try to let me know as soon as possible and we can reschedule for another day.
