About Me
italki teacher since Feb 2, 2022InterestsSports & FitnessFoodTravel
FULLY BOOKED - NOT TAKING NEW STUDENTS. In Italki, I only take students preparing for the Portuguese exam (CAPLE). Students relocating to Portugal please contact first before booking. 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.Me as a Teacher
The great majority of students prepare for Portuguese-CIPLE-exam (A2). In my class they are formatted to pass the exam, following 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
If you are an exam taker expect classes formatted to the exam. My classes are well structured, featuring tested materials. You will be following a learning plan covering the point you will have to know for the exam (topics and grammar) within a specific timeframe, often aligned with examination dates. If you are relocating to Portugal or travelling there expect a conversational class within frequent situations.My teaching material
