Über mich
italki-Lehrkraft seit 4. May 2021
My name is Catarina, I'm from Porto, Portugal and I am a bilingual portuguese tutor. I have lived in 5 different countries - Portugal, Spain, Austria, UAE and now I live in France.
After working for 7 years as a Flight Attendant, flying to 60+ countries and working with 140+ nationalities, I have learned to adapt to pretty much any culture, person or situation.
Ich als Lehrkraft
I have always had a big interest in languages (also accents :D). Having moved to different countries makes me understand your struggle as I also had to go through the process of learning a new language myself - btw, I'm learning French at the moment. So I know that the first step is the hardest!
However, you can take that first step with me and I will help you get to the level you want :)
Meine Stunden und mein Unterrichtsstil
I am pretty flexible here: if you want to have 100% conversational classes or if you want to go deep into portuguese grammar, I can adapt. I usually use a wide range of teaching methods - we can do exercises, but we can also read articles or listen to songs. We can even read portuguese poetry, if that's something you like :)
I understand her much better than my government A1/A2 class. Very helpful.

Catarina is a very good teacher. She knows how to tailor the lesson according to each student's needs, goals, and current level, and explains everything in a comprehensible and fun way.

I really enjoyed my conversation lesson today with Catarina. She is very good at keeping the conversation going and making you feel comfortable attempting to speak. I have tried a few other instructors on iTalki but I always felt a little uncomfortable and I would feel stress before the lesson. I have finally found someone who meshes with my personality and I look forward to next week.
