Hello there!
I have been teaching for over 7 years and I love getting the opportunity to meet people from around the world. My philosophy is that we should be able to openly communicate with one another without the fear of being judged. I will not judge you or any mistakes you make (remember: mistakes are part of the learning process!), and will cheer you on no matter where you are in your journey.
I think speech is a very important tool in any culture, and as such, my teaching will reflect an emphasis on communication and public speaking - this will serve YOU well whether you are learning academically or to further your career.

Me as a Teacher
My teaching philosophy is simple: to understand the student and work at that student's level without talking down to them. The last thing I want is for anyone to leave our lessons feeling incompetent about their English level. My job is to help YOU master the English language in multiple spheres such as listening, speaking, writing, reading and so on. I want to help you become an efficient communicator and be confident with your English level proficiency. I can also help you prepare for the IELTS and TOEFL exams as well as the SAT exam.
My lessons & teaching style
Depending on the student, I will introduce a variety of media forms to enrich your language progress such as stories, films, videos, memes, etc. For those who want to learn more of the grammar rules, I will personally tailor a lesson plan to seamlessly integrate grammar into everyday English so that you absorb information in a natural and effortless manner. For those learning business English, we can work together on writing work emails, practicing for interview questions as well as putting together a cohesive resume. I am dedicated to supporting you with challenges that will empower you as you continue learning, all the while being as patient and understanding as I can be.

Leonardo as always prepared very interesting topic for discussion during the lesson. I was very excited to see again the words and phrases that I had learned in previous lessons. Either accidentally or intentionally, it is very useful practice.

The lesson was great, this method helps, I can talk and read. When I’m wrong the professor makes me understand why I’m wrong and what is right words or pronunciation.
