About Me
italki teacher since Feb 2, 2022Interest topicSports & FitnessFoodTravel
NOT TAKING NEW STUDENTS In Italki, I mainly prepare students for Portuguese exams (CAPLE), also those relocating to Portugal. As a native and certified Portuguese teacher, I currently teach at a university in Kuala Lumpur and spend a semester each year teaching in Hong Kong. Additionally, I serve as an external teacher for the Portuguese Institute for Asia in Macau, overseeing Portuguese language exams. My previous experience includes teaching at a university in Shanghai, accumulating over a decade of experience in Asia. Beyond English, I am fluent in Spanish, Italian, French, and have a basic understanding of Mandarin. Currently, I am expanding my language repertoire by learning Malay.Me as a Teacher
The majority of my students are from China, Hong Kong, Macau, Singapore, and the US, preparing for the Portuguese CIPLE exam (A2). For this group, I follow the guidelines set by the Portuguese examination center. Additionally, I've had a growing number of students preparing for DAPLE exams (C1). Recently, there has been a notable increase in students relocating to Portugal, reflecting its rising popularity as a destination. This trend requires a different approach for teaching. I also teach children and teens for quite some time.My lessons & teaching style
I adhere to an inclusive approach, recognising that each learner presents unique preferences and distinct learning requirements. Placing a strong emphasis on communication and employing a student centered methodology, my classes are well structured, featuring tested materials and a comprehensive learning plan. This plan is tailored to fulfil mutually agreed-upon learning objectives within a specific timeframe, often aligned with examination dates.My teaching material
