I teach: English and Portuguese as a second language

Lessons are developed for each language level A1-A2, B1-B2, and C1-C2.

Students will learn how to read, write, listen, speak, and learn vocabulary and grammar in a fun and digital way.

Each lesson is specially prepared for the students to achieve their goals.

Technology-based learning

Use of technology in the classroom to make teaching processes more efficient and aid in student learning. Students can use devices like computers and tablets to read materials, conduct research or play educational games. In addition, cloud computing capabilities make it possible for students to access documents or other resources while at school or at home. Virtual classrooms using video conferencing software can be a great way to provide education remotely. This can be especially helpful for students with disabilities who may have difficulties focusing in a physical classroom environment.

Group learning

Segmenting students into groups is a great way to teach them skills in collaboration. While in their teams, they can discuss subjects and learn about the perspectives of others. It's important to encourage both class participation andlistening skillsso that students can gain these abilities for the future. Teachers can assign group presentations so students can convey information to the rest of the class, ask and answer questions and interact with each other.

Individual learning

While group projects can be exciting opportunities for students, it's also important to promote individual learning so that they can work by themselves. Assigning journal entries can be an excellent way to give students time to think through topics and develop thoughts and analyses. This is especially helpful before hosting a class discussion so class members can have ideas for what to say. Teachers can read writing assignments to reward points to students who can't participate vocally in class.
